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?"
