A woman was walking along the beach when she stumbled upon a bottle.
She picked it up and rubbed it, and lo-and-behold a Genie appeared. The
amazed woman asked if she got three wishes.
The Genie said, "Nope, sorry three-wish genies are a fairy-tale myth.
I'm a one-wish genie. So...what'll it be?"
The woman didn't hesitate. She said, "I want peace in the Middle East.
See this map? I want these countries to stop fighting with each other
and I want all the Arabs to love Jews and Americans and vice-versa. It
will bring about world peace and harmony."
The Genie looked at the map and exclaimed, "Lady, be reasonable.
These countries have been at war for thousands of years. I'm out
of shape after being in a bottle for five hundred years. I'm good but not
THAT good! I don't think it can be done. Make another wish and please be
reasonable."
The woman thought for a minute and said, "Well, I've never been able to
find the right man. You know, one that's considerate and fun, likes to
cook and helps with the house cleaning, is great in bed and gets along with
my family, doesn't watch sports all the time, and is faithful. That's what I
wish for - a good man."
The Genie let out a long sigh, shook his head and said, "Let me see
that map again."
