I wish I could be granted one wish !!!!
A man was walking along the beach one fine sunny day when he happened upon a small lamp half buried in the sand. He picked it up, brushed it off, and lo & behold a genie popped out.
“Thank you for freeing me! I owe you a debt of gratitude. I will grant you any three wishes you desire.”
The man was ecstatic. “Three wishes?! For anything?! Anything at all?!”
“Yes,” the genie replied before sticking a finger in the air. “But there’s a catch.”
The man’s brow furrowed with confusion and doubt. “A catch? What catch?”
“Anything you wish for your wife will receive DOUBLE.”
“What? That’s a crap deal. My wife is a battle axe. She hounds me constantly...I can’t stand her. Oh the rotten luck.” The man paced near the crashing surf for a few moments then turned to the genie and said, “Fine. I’ll do it. For my first wish I want $10 billion placed in my bank account.”
Poof. “It is done.”
“She gets double, hmmm?” the man muttered to himself. “Okay. I want a twelve thousand square foot mansion on the beach with a golf course and 20 of the most exotic cars ever made in the driveway.”
The genie nodded. “Your wish is my command. And for your final wish?”
“Scare me half to death.”
