[QUOTE="eddiespin, post: 376452, member: 4920"][b]Genie's Lamp.....[/b] A man is walking along the beach when he trips over something in the sand. Upon examination, he sees that it's a genie's lamp. He eagerly rubs the lamp and out pops a genie who says, "I am the genie of the lamp. I have been trapped in this lamp for 1,000 years. For setting me free I will grant you one wish." The man thought and thought. Finally, he pulled out a map and said, "It's been my goal in life to do something for mankind for which everyone else will remember me.

I realize I could wish for a lot of money, or fame, but I'd like to use this wish for peace in the Middle East." The genie looked disappointed. He said, "I'm sorry sir, but I can't grant that wish. The people of that region have been fighting for thousands of years. The wars go back many, many generations. The religious battles and opinions run rampant in that area. Boundary disputes are constantly occurring. Violence and hatred is too far ingrained into this part of the world for even one of my wishes to do any good. I'm sorry, but I just can't do that.
