Three men: an editor, a
photographer, and a journalist are covering a political convention in Miami.
They decide to walk up and down the beach during their lunch hour.
Halfway
up the beach, they stumbled upon a lamp. As they rub the
lamp a genie
appears and says „Normally I would grant you three
wishes, but since
there are three of you, I will grant you each one
wish.“
The photographer went first. „I would like to spend the rest
of my
life living in a huge house in St. Thomas with no money
worries.“ The
genie granted him his wish and sent him on off to St.
Thomas.
The journalist went next. „I would like to spend the rest of
my life
living on a huge yacht cruising the Mediterranean with no
money
worries.“ The genie granted him his wish and sent him off to
the
Mediterranean.
Last, but not least, it was the editor’s
turn. „And what would your
wish be?“ asked the genie.
„I want them both back after lunch“ replied the editor, „the
deadline for tomorrow’s newspaper is in about ten hours.
