One Wish
A man was walking along Boynton Beach and stumbled across an old lamp. He picked it up and rubbed it and out popped a genie. The genie said, “OK, OK. You released me from the lamp, blah blah blah. this is the fourth time this month, and I’m getting a little sick of these wished so you can forget about three. You only get one wish!”
The man san and though about it for a while and said, “I’ve always wanted to go to Nassau in the Bahamas but I’m scared to fly and I get very seasick. Could you build me a bridge to the Bahamas so I can drive over there to visit?”
The genie laughed and said, “That’s impossible. Think of the logistics of that! How would the supports ever reach the bottom of the Atlantic? Think oh how much concrete…how much steel!!! NO, think of another wish.”
The man said OK and tried to think of a really good wish. Finally he said, “I’ve been married and divorced four times. My wives always said that I don’t care and that I’m insensitive.
So, I wish that I could understand women…know how they feel inside and what they’re thinking when they give me the silent treatment…know why they’re crying, know what they really want when they say ‘nothing’…know how to make them truly happy…”
The genie said, “You want that bridge two lanes or four?”
