Two Wishes

 

An Aussie trucker walks into an outback cafe' with a full-grown emu behind him.

The waitress asks them for their orders.

The trucker says, 'A hamburger, chips and a coke,' and turns to the emu, 'What's yours?'

'Sounds great, I'll have the same,' says the emu.

A short time later the waitress returns with the order

'That will be $9.40 please,' and he reaches into his pocket

and pulls out the exact change and pays.

The next day, the trucker and the emu come again and he

says, 'A hamburger, chips and a coke.'

The emu says, ' Sounds great, I'll have the same.'

Again the trucker reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change.

This becomes routine until the two enter again. 'The usual?' asks the waitress.

'No, it's Friday night, so I'll have a steak, baked potato and a salad,' says the trucker..

'Same for me,' says the emu.

Shortly the waitress brings the order and says, 'That will be $32.62.'

Once again the man pulls the exact change out of his pocket and places it on the table.

The waitress cannot hold back her curiosity any longer.

'Excuse me mate, how do you manage to always pull the

exact change from your pocket every time?'

'Well, love' says the trucker, 'a few years ago, I was

cleaning out the back shed, and found an old lamp. When

I cleaned it, a Genie appeared and offered me two wishes.

My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything,

I would just put my hand in my pocket and the right amount

of money would always be there.'

'That's brilliant!' says the waitress. 'Most people would

ask for a million dollars or something, but you'll always be

as rich as you want, for as long as you live!'

'That's right. Whether it's a gallon of milk or a Rolls

Royce, the exact money is always there.' says the man.

Still curious the waitress asks, 'What's with the bloody emu?'

The trucker pauses, sighs, and answers, 'My second wish

was for a tall bird with a big arse and long legs, who agrees

with everything I say.
