Portuguese man finds magic lamp A Portuguese man walking down the beach stumbles upon a rusty and dirty old lamp. Intrigued, he picks it up and rubs it trying to read the old etchings on the side, and out comes a genie! The genie says: ""You have released me, and for that I will grant you one wish!"" (hey, it's a Portuguese genie, we get shafted all the time, so we only get one wish instead of three) The man thinks for a bit and responds: ""I'd like a highway that connects us all the way to America!"" The genie somewhat bothered says: ""Across the Atlantic ocean? Are you insane? Do you have any idea how hard that is? The work I'd have to put into that!"" The man somewhat taken aback mumbles: ""Oh... well I guess I could ask for something more simple..."" and suddenly he exclaims ""I'd like to be able to understand women!"" The genie sighs and says: ""Ok, how many lanes do you want on that highway?""
