One Wish for a Genie There was a man walking along a California beach finds an old oil lamp. After wiping off the sand, out comes a Genie. "Listen man, I have been doing this wish thing for hundreds of years, and quite frankly, I am tired of it. So, I am only giving you one wish. Make it good." After some careful thought, the man says, "Well, I have always wanted to visit Hawaii, but I am afraid to fly, and get intensely seasick on a boat. So how about a highway from L.A. to Honolulu?" The Genie thinks for a moment, then sneers "What are you nuts? Impossible! Think of the logistics and planning involved? It has to be earthquake proof. Then there's all that concrete and steel. And those structural pylons are going to go thousands of feet deep, making it an engineering nightmare. This is a 3000 mile undertaking, and you know what? I am just way too exhausted to make this one happen. Sorry, think of something else, and I will grant it." So, the man thinks, thinks, and thinks, then smiles, and says. "Ok, Genie, I got it. I am a failure at relationships. I have been married and divorced 7 times. Every wife has told me that I just never understood them. So Genie, help me to understand women, to know what they are thinking, to be patient when they change their minds, to know how to read their body language, help me to...to.....really know what a woman wants!" The Genie thinks for a minute, then lets out a long sigh of exhaustion, and says "You want that highway in 2 lanes or 4?"

Martians spend all day thinking about secs (only way to get the 's' word through) while Venusians think about love. When the two races work out the difference, they 'may' make a good couple. Like Caragh says, no guarantee though! TG

Maybe the genie should have changed the man into a woman?

what a woman want's.... " is really to be loved"... and that is a very vast subject of what is loving, and how it fluxiates in it's wants, needs, and supporting of self value in the big picture of meaning. "mainly, to not be taken for granted!"
