Two Irishmen, Patrick & Michael, were adrift in a lifeboat following a
dramatic escape from a burning freighter. While rummaging through the
boat's provisions, Patrick stumbled across an old lamp. Secretly
hoping that a genie would appear, he rubbed the lamp vigorously. To
the
amazement of Patrick, a genie came forth. This particular genie,
however, stated that he could only deliver one wish, not the standard
three.
Without giving much thought to the matter, Patrick blurted out, Make
the entire ocean into Guinness Beer!" The genie clapped his hands with
a deafening crash, and immediately the entire sea turned into the
finest
brew ever sampled by mortals. Simultaneously, the genie vanished.
Only the gentle lapping of Guinness on the hull broke the stillness as
the two men considered their circumstances. Michael looked disgustedly
at Patrick whose wish had been granted. After a long, tension-filled
moment, he spoke: "Nice going Patrick! Now we're going to have to pee
in the boat."
