He picked it up, rubbed it and out popped a genie! The genie said, "Master, you have released me from the lamp, blah, blah, blah. This is the already the fourth time this month, so I'm getting really sick of granting wishes. You can forget about getting three. You only get one wish!" The man thought about it for a while and replied, "I've always wanted to travel to Hawaii, but I'm scared of flying and I get seasick very easily. Could you build me a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over there to visit?" Disgusted, the genie laughed and said, "That's ridiculous. Think of the logistics of that! How would the supports ever reach the bottom of the Pacific Ocean? Think of how much reinforced concrete that would take . .. . how much steel! No way. 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 several times. My wives have always said that I'm not caring enough, 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, . . . understand what they really want when they say 'nothing' . . . know how to make them truly happy . . . " The genie replied, "You want that bridge two lanes or four?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
