Wishing Unthoughtfully
This guy was walking along the beach in Malibu when he came across this
salt- encrusted piece of metal. He worked for an hour or so to remove the salt.
Lo and behold it was a very old oil lamp. The guy started to buff it to remove
the verdigris when "poof" a genie appeared. This genie, like all
genies, was so happy to be freed of the lamp that he granted the guy three
wishes.
"I wish to be a dollar richer than Bill Gates, " says the
guy.
The genie wasn't sure who Bill Gates was until the guy told him to check
Forbes magazine. When the genie called up Forbes from inside the lamp he learned
that Bill Gates was indeed the richest man in the world.
"Guy," the genie said, "You will forever be a dollar richer
than Bill Gates. What's your second wish."
"Genie, I want the most expensive Porsche made: Fire engine red, on
board GPS and the finest audio system ever installed in an
automobile."
"That's easy, Guy," says the genie. He waves his hand and thr
best car anybody had ever seen pops out of the lamp. The genie then asks the guy
for his third wish.
The guy mulls the problem over and over. A girl? nah, with billions and
billions of dollars he certainly had become a chick magnet. World peace?
nah only wackos want that. The guy found a reason not to wish for anything
that came to his mind.
"Genie," the guy said, "I can't think of anything now. May I
save the third wish for later." "Gee, this is most unusual. But you
hold the hammer, I can't escape from this lamp until you make a third wish. Call
me when you're ready," and woosh--the genie disappears into the
lamp.
The guy carefully picks up the now-ever-so- valuable lamp and places it in
the trunk of the fire engine red Porsche. He turns the radio on to balance the
sounds and makes all the other adjustments needed to get his great audio system
customized to his ears. After that, he pulled off the beach and headed south
along the Pacific Coast Highway. Soon he was up to 60, then 70, then 80. The
Porsche handled perfectly. The guy was so happy that he began to sing along with
the radio.
"Oh, I wish I was an Oscar M...."
