The Woman or the Bridge
There was a man walking down a beach in California. He stumbles across
a lamp, and out comes a genie.
"I'm sick of granting wishes, so you
only get one wish," says the genie.
The man thinks for a minute, then
replies, "I've never been to Hawaii before. I'm too scared to fly, and I
get seasick, so I want a bridge built to Hawaii."
The genie replies,
"That's too big of a wish! Think of the logistics of that, think of
how much concrete, and how much steel. How would the supports ever reach
the bottom of the Pacific?"
"No, no, think of another wish," says the
genie.
The guy thinks for a minute and says, "I never really understand
my wife. What do women mean when they give you the silent treatment?
What do women mean when they start staring, and making gestures at
you? I wish I could really understand women better."
The genie replies:
"Do YOU want that bridge 2 lanes or 4?"
