GENIE CAN'T HEAR


A guy walks into a bar with a shoe box and a lamp. The guy sits at the bar and asks for a beer, while he carefully puts the box and the lamp down.

The bartender, hearing music coming out of the shoe box, asks, “what’s in there?” The guy replies, “A small piano player.” “No way, that’s impossible”, the bartender replies.

So the guy opens the box, and sure enough there was a miniature piano player. Now filled with curiosity, the bartender asks, “How on earth did you get that?” The guy calmly explains, “See this lamp here, it’s a genie, but he’s old and a little hard of hearing but he’ll grant you any wish.”

“Get outta here!” exclaimed the bartender. “No really. Go ahead and give it a rub”, the guy says calmly as he takes a sip of beer.

The bartender eagerly rubs the lamp, and poof! a genie appeared. “What is your command master?”, the genie asked. “I want money, lots and lots of money!”, the bartender said excitedly.

The genie said, “So shall it be.” POOF!!! The entire bar was instantly filled with jars of honey. The guy still sitting at the bar, just laughs and says, “I told you he’s hard of hearing! Do you *really* think I’d ask for a 9 inch pianist?”
