Bill Clinton was walking along the beach when he stumbled upon
 a Genie's lamp. He picked it up and rubbed it and lo-and-behold
 a real Genie appeared.  Bill was amazed and asked if he got
 three wishes.  The Genie said, "Nope...not these days...I'm only
 giving out 1 wish because of inflation.  So...what'll be?"
 
 Bill didn't hesitate.  He said, "I want peace in the Middle
 East.  See this map?  I want these countries to stop fighting
 with each other."
 
 The Genie looked at the map and exclaimed, "Gadzooks, man!
 These countries have been at war for thousands of years.  I'm
 good but I'm not THAT good.  I don't think it can be done.  So
 make another wish."
 
 Bill thought for a minute and said, "You know, people really
 don't like my wife.  They think she's a real bitch and ugly as
 sin.  I wish for her to be the most beautiful woman in the world
 and I want everybody to like her.  That's what I want."
 
 The Genie thought for a minute and said, "Hhhmmm.  Lemme see that
 map again."
