Oh wow, what a hot topic, LOL!

Pardon me if you've already heard this...

A man, walking along the beach, came across an old lamp lying in the sand. He picked it up and rubbed the sand off of it. Hmmmmm, he thought...wonder if there's anything to this genie stuff...as he looked around for one.

YO! said a voice behind him.

Turning around and not believing his eyes, the man saw a real genie!

Oh boy, oh boy, does this mean I get three wishes? asked the man.

No, said the genie, you only get one wish. So be careful what you wish for.

After much thought, the man said, okay, I want a bridge from here to Europe so I can drive across.

Whaaaaat? said the genie. That's too hard, can you imagine how much concrete that would take, how many pillars would be needed, etc.? You'll have to pick something easier, said the genie.

Disappointed, the man thought and thought. Okay, he said, I guess what I'd really like to have is understanding of women. So that is my wish.

Looking panicked, eyes wide, the genie said, About that bridge...how many lanes do you want, 2 or 4?
