Thought this was funny:
A guy collecting shells on the beach in California stumbles across an
odd bottle. Curious, he starts to clean the sand off with his shirt
when with a bang and a cloud of smoke a genie appears before him.
"Your wish is my command" growls the genie, "but it hasn't been that
long since that Clinton guy threw me away, I only have enough energy for
one wish, so make it a good one."
Thinking long and hard, the gentleman says to the genie, "I've always
wanted to go to Hawaii but I'm afraid to fly and I get terribly
seasick. Build me a bridge to Hawaii."
"Now hold on just a minute" cried the genie. "Do you realize what your
asking? The amount of material to do that would be colossal. Do you
know how deep I would have to sink the towers that would support it just
to hold their own weight? Why the environmental studies alone could sap
all of my energy. No, no, no, think of something else."
After a rather long pause, the man turned to the genie and said "OK,
here's something I've that has always troubled me, I've always wished I
could understand women. Why do they cry when they're happy? Why, when
something is wrong, do they think we should know what it is without
asking? Why can't they find their car in a parking lot? There are
thousands of things about women I don't understand and I wish I knew."
"So," said the genie, "let me see if I have this straight, do you want a
one lane bridge or a two lane, because once the supports are in place it
should be no trouble to make it two lanes."
