The bridge   Reply to topic

One day a man was digging a hole in his back yard when he finds an old lamp. As he rubs the lamp to shine it up a genie appears. The genie says for freeing me from that lamp I will grant you a wish. The man thinks for a moment and replies, I live in Hawaii but often have to fly to California on business. I absolutely hate to fly. So I wish there was a bridge from Hawaii to California. The genie says, That would be a very difficult feat to construct a bridge for that long a span. And the up keep for a bridge like that would be a tremendous challenge. And no telling the impact it would have on the environment and wild life. The genie then says, I urge you to reconsider your wish and maybe wish for something a little more simple. The man thinks long and hard. He then says, I just don't understand my wife. Most often we don't see eye to eye. And there are times she just starts to cry for no reason. I think we would both be happier if I understood her. So I wish I understood how a woman thinks and her emotions. The genie then says, Would you like that bridge two lanes or four??
