A man is walking through an Arabian desert and finds a genie's lamp. He picks it up and rubs it and, of course, a genie appears.
The Genie tells the man-"OK, you've rubbed the lamp, now you get one wish."
The man replies: But I thought it was 3 wishes.
G: "Hey, it's a recession, it's 1 wish. Take it or leave it."
M: "OK, OK. 1 wish".
The man then pauses to think, trying to find something selfless to make the world a better place. Finally, he pulls out a map of the Middle East and says "These people have been fighting and killing each other for as long as anyone can remember. I wish for peace in the Middle East".
The Genie looks at him dumbfounded " I'm a genie, not a god. Give me something I can work with".
"Uh huh" And another long pause as the man trys to think of something which might be within the Genie's power.
"OK, I know." Says the man. " I play in a band back home, the guitar player, could you tone his ego down a bit?"
After another long pause, the Genie finally says "OK, OK, let me see the map again...'
