[lfjokes] Moral...

[Simondo]

    A man has spent many days crossing the desert 
    without water. His camel dies of thirst. He's 
    crawling through the sands, certain that he has 
    breathed his last, when all of a sudden he sees an object 
    sticking out of the sand several yards ahead of him. He crawls to the
    object, pulls it out of the sand, and discovers what looks to be an
    old brief case. 

    He opens it and out pops a genie.... 

    But this is no ordinary genie. He is wearing a 
    Senior Manager ID badge and dull grey suit. 

    "Well" says the genie. "You know how it works. 
    You have three wishes." 

    "I'm not falling for this." says the man. 
    "I'm not going to trust a Senior Manager." 

    "What do you have to lose? You've got no transportation, 
    and it looks like you're a goner anyway!" 

    The man thinks about this for a minute, and decides 
    that the genie is right. 

    "OK, I wish I were in a lush oasis with plentiful 
    food and drink." 

    ***POOF*** 

    The man finds himself in the most beautiful oasis he 
    has ever seen. And he is surrounded with jugs of 
    wine and platters of delicacies. 

    "OK, kid, what's your second wish." 

    "My second wish is that I were rich beyond my wildest dreams." 

    ***POOF*** 

    The man finds himself surrounded by treasure chests filled with 
    rare gold coins and precious gems. 

    "OK, kid, you have just one more wish. Better make it a good 
    one!" 

    After thinking for a few minutes, the man says: "I wish that no 
    matter where I go beautiful women will want and need me." 

    ***POOF*** 

    He is turned into a tampon. 

    The moral of the story? 


    If a Senior Manager offers you anything, there's going to be a 
    string attached.
