A woman was walking along the beach when she stumbled upon a Genie's lamp. She picked it up, rubbed it and a Genie appeared.
The amazed woman asked if she was entitled to three wishes.
The Genie said ,
"No. Due to inflation , constant downsizing , low wages in
third world countries and fierce global competition,
I can only grant you one wish . 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."
The Genie looked at the map and exclaimed ,
"Gadzooks lady ! These countries have been at war for thousands of years. I'm good but not THAT good ! I don't think it can be done. Make another wish."
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 housecleaning, is good 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 mate."
The Genie let out a long sigh and said ,
"Let me see that ****ing map!"

LOL!

I know one more:
A man spent a week without food and water in the desert and found a genie's lamp. The genie appeared and promised the man to be his slave. The man made a wish: "I want to go home". The genie took his hand and began to walk with the man. The man said: "No, genie, you don't undertand me. I want to get home faster." Genie replied: "Ok, let's run".

Sorry for mistakes...

LOL, Renata!! I liked that one, I'd never heard it before.

By the way Renata, congrats on your 200th post! You are now a "guru!!" [^]

I'm glad you don't know, cinderella. We use ** (asterisks) to substitute for letters when those letters would make a bad word. So, you can just plug in any letters you want, or you can make a new word if you want.

I know what this word is supposed to be, but I cannot tell you, first because I don't want to use that kind of language here in the forum, and second because even if I do type it here, it won't show up--the Snitz board will not let the word appear. Make sense?
