IJMC Beers and Genies

			IJMC - Beers and Genies

Ok, so it's an old joke, sue me. I hadn't heard this version of it so 
here it is for all of you...					-dave




A man walks into a bar and asks the bartender for the smallest bottle of 
beer the bartender sells.  The bartender gives the man a tiny little 
bottle.  The man then asks for the biggest bottle of beer the bartender 
sells.  The bartender pulls out a gigantic bottle, places it in front
of the man, and says, "Out of curiosity, what are you going to do with 
these bottles?"

The man reaches into his bag, pulls out a tiny piano, places it on the 
bar, and places the tiny bottle of beer on the piano.  He then pulls
a foot-tall man out of the bag.  The little man drinks the beer and 
starts playing beautiful tunes on the piano.

"And what about the big bottle?" asks the bartender.
"In this bag I have a magic lamp, and inside the lamp lives a genie 
who loves beer.  If you give him a beer, he'll grant you one wish. 
Go ahead, try it!"

The bartender rubs the lamp and a genie appears.  The genie drinks the 
gigantic beer and says, "Ah, that hit the spot!  For your generosity
I will grant you one wish."

The bartender says, "I want a million bucks."

The genie says, "Your wish is granted," and suddenly the bar is filled 
with a million ducks.

The bartender says to the man, "Hey, I asked for a million BUCKS!  I 
think your genie has a hearing problem!"

"You're telling me... You think I asked for a twelve-inch pianist?"
