Be Careful What U Wish For

Views 2 Views    Comments 0 Comments    Share Share    Posted by Arun 13-02-2009  
A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him. The waitress asks him for his order.


The man says, `A hamburger, fries and a coke,` and turns to the ostrich, `What`s yours?` `I`ll have the same,` says the ostrich.

A short time later the waitress returns with the order `That`ll be $9.40 please,` and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact


change for payment.

The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man says, `A hamburger, fries and a coke.`The ostrich says, `I`ll have the same.`
Again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change.
This becomes routine until the two enter again.
`The usual?` asks the waitress.
`No, this is Friday night, so I will have a steak, baked potato and a salad,` says the man. `Same,` says the ostrich.
Shortly the waitress brings the order and says, `That will be $32.62.`
Once again the man pulls the exact change out of his pocket and places it on the table.The waitress cannot hold back her curiosity any longer. `Excuse me sir.

How do you manage to always come up with the exact change in your pocket every time?`
`Well,` says the man, `several years ago I was cleaning the attic and found an old lamp. When I rubbed it, a Genie appeared and offered me two wishes.
My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything, I would just put my hand in my pocket and the right amount of money would always be there.`
`That`s brilliant!` says the waitress. `Most people would ask for a million dollars or something, but you`ll always be as rich as you want for as long as you live!`
`That`s right. Whether it`s a gallon of milk or a Rolls Royce, the exact money is always there,` says the man.
The waitress asks, `What`s with the ostrich?` The man sighs, pauses and answers, `My second wish was for a tall chick with long legs who agrees with everything I say.
