THE COWBOY & THE FEMA GENIE

A modern day cowboy has spent many days
crossing the Texas plains without
water. His horse has already died of thirst.
He's crawling through the sand,
certain that he has breathed his last,
when all of a sudden he sees
an object sticking out of the sand several
yards ahead of him.

He crawls to the object, pulls it out of the
sand, and discovers what looks
to be an old briefcase. He opens it and out
pops a genie. But this is no
ordinary genie. She is wearing an FEMA ID badge

and a dull gray dress.
There's a calculator in her pocketbook. She has
a pencil tucked behind one ear.

"Well, cowboy," says the genie... "You know how
I work. You have three wishes."

"I'm not falling for this." said the cowboy.
"I'm not going to trust a FEMA genie."

"What do you have to lose? You've got no
transportation, and it looks like
you're a goner anyway!"

The cowboy thinks about this for a minute, and
decides that the genie is
right. "OK, I wish I were in a lush oasis with
plenty of food and drink."

***POOF***

The cowboy finds himself in the most beautiful
oasis he has ever seen, and
he is surrounded with jugs of wine and platters
of delicacies.

"OK, cowpoke, what's your second wish."

"My second wish is that I was rich beyond my
wildest dreams."

***POOF***

The cowboy finds himself surrounded by treasure
chests filled with rare gold
coins and precious gems.

"OK, cowpuncher, you have just one more wish.
Better make it a good one!"

After thinking for a few minutes, the cowboy
says... "I wish that no matter
where I go, beautiful women will want and need
me."

***POOF***

He's turned into a tampon.



The moral of the story:
If the government offers you anything, there's
ALWAYS going to be a string attached.
