A programmer was walking along the beach when
he found a lamp.
Upon rubbing the lamp a genie appeared who stated
“I am the most
powerful genie in the world. I can grant you any
wish you want, but only one
wish.”

The programmer pulled out a
map of the Mediterranean area and said
“I’d like there to be a
just and last peace among the people in the
middle east.”

The
genie responded, “Gee, I don’t know. Those people have been

fighting since the beginning of time. I can do just about anything, but this

is beyond my limits.”

The programmer then said, “Well, I am a
programmer and my programs
have a lot of users. Please make all the
users satisfied with my programs,
and let them ask sensible
changes”

Genie: “Uh, let me see that map again.”
