Highway to Hawaii

A man was walking along the beach and found a bottle. He looked around and didn’t see anyone so he opened it. A genie appeared and thanked the man for letting him out. The genie said, “For your kindness I will grant you a wish, but only one – none of that three wishes jazz, OK?”The man thought for a minute and said, “Well, I have always wanted to go to Hawaii but have never been able to because I’m afraid of flying, and ships make me claustrophobic and ill. So, I wish for a road to be built from here to Hawaii.”The genie was taken aback a bit, but after some thought said, “No, I don’t think I can do that; think about the pilings needed to hold up the highway and how deep they would have to be to reach the bottom of the ocean. Think of all the pavement and steal and concrete that would be needed. I’m sorry, you will have to choose another wish.”The man thought for a minute and then told the genie, “There is one other thing that I have always wanted. I would like to be able to understand women. What makes them laugh and cry, why do they get upset at us so easily, what are their true desires and needs? Basically…what makes them tick?!?”The genie stared at him and blinked a couple times.”So, do you want two lanes or four?”
