A man was walking along the beach when he noticed a funny looking bottle sticking out of the sand...well of course he rubbed it and of course out popped a Genie who said he would grant the man one wish.

The man deliberated for a while and finally said that he would love to go to Hawaii.

"No problem, "says the genie.

"Wait!" says the man. " I hate flying and boats scare me so I want to be able to drive to Hawaii."

"Are you crazy?" says the Genie. "That is two thousand miles, there are underwater canyons miles deep. I will be busy for ages doing that. Isn't there something else I can do for you?"

The man thinks for a while and says..."Well I would like to have a better understanding of the way my wife thinks..."

"Two lanes or four?" asks the Genie.
