Three men: an editor, a photographer, and a
journalist are
covering a political convention in Miami. They
decide to walk up and down
the beach during their lunch hour. Halfway up
the beach, they stumbled
upon a lamp. As they rub the lamp a genie
appears and says “Normally I
would grant you three wishes, but
since there are three of you, I will
grant you each one
wish.”

The photographer went first. “I would like to spend the rest of my

life living in a huge house in St. Thomas with no money worries.” The

genie granted him his wish and sent him on off to St.
Thomas.

The journalist went next. “I would like to spend the rest of my life

living on a huge yacht cruising the Mediterranean with no money

worries.” The genie granted him his wish and sent him off to the

Mediterranean.

Last, but not least, it was the editor’s turn. “And
what would your
wish be?” asked the genie.

“I want the
m both back after lunch” replied the editor, “the
deadline for
tomorrow’s newspaper is in about ten hours.
