Three guys, a Canadian, Osama Bin Ladin and Uncle Sam are out walking
together one day. They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it.

"I will give each of you each one wish, that's three wishes total," says
the Genie.

The Canadian says, "I am a farmer, my dad was a farmer, and my son will
also farm. I want the land to be forever fertile in Canada."  With a blink
of the Genie's eye, 'POOF' the land in Canada was forever made fertile for
farming.

Osama Bin Ladin was amazed, so he said, "I want a wall around Afganistan,
so that no infidels, Jews or Americans can come into our precious state."

Again, with a blink of the Genie's eye, 'POOF' there was a huge wall
around Afganistan.

Uncle Sam (A former civil engineer), asks, "I'm very curious. Please tell
me more about this wall."  The Genie explains,

"Well, it's about 15,000 feet high, 500 feet thick and completely
surrounds the country; nothing can get in or out, it's virtually
impenetrable."

Uncle Sam says, "Fill it with water."
