Wish ....


A man walks into a restaurant. The waitress asks for his order. The man says, "A hamburger, fries and a coke," .A short time later the waitress returns with the order. "That will be$9.40 please,"and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact change forpayment.The next day, the man comes again and says, "A hamburger, fries, and a coke." Again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change.

This becomes routine until, one day he enters again."The usual?" asks the waitress. "No, this is Friday night, so I will havea steak, baked potato, and salad," says the man. "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 can't hold back her curiosity any longer."Excuse me, sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact change out of your pocket every time?"

"Well," says the man, "several years ago I was cleaning the antic and found an old lamp. When I rubbed it a Genie appeared and offered me a wish. My 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 wish for amillion 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.
