An Englishman, a Frenchman and an American are walking along a beach
together one day. They come across a lantern and, suddenly a genie
pops out of it. 'I will give you each one wish,' says the genie.
The American says,'I am a farmer so I want the land to be fertile for
ever.' With a blink of the genie's eye and a 'FOOM', the land in
America was forever fertile for farming.
The Frenchman is amazed, so he says,'I want a wall around France, so
no-one can come into our precious country. Again, with a blink of an
eye,'POOF' there was a huge wall around France.
The Englishman asks,'I'm very curious. Please tell me more about this
wall.' The genie explains,'Well, it's about 150 feet high, 50 feet
thick and nothing can get in or out.'
The Englishman says, 'Fill it up with water.'
