Prince Charles was driving around his mother's
estate when he accidentally ran over her favorite dog, a corgi, crushing it to
a pulp. He got out of his Range Rover and sat down on the grass, totally
distraught. The whole world was against him, anyway, and now his mother would
go ballistic.
Suddenly, he noticed a lamp, half buried in the ground. He dug it up,
polished it, and immediately a genie appeared.
"You have freed me from thousands of years of imprisonment", said the
genie. "As a reward, I shall grant you one wish."
"Well", said the Prince, "I have all the material things I need, but let
me show you this dog."
>They walk over to the splattered remains of the dog. "Do you think you
could bring this dog back to life for me?", the Prince asked.
The genie carefully looked at the remains and shook his head. "This
body is too far gone for even me to bring it back to life.
Is there something else you would like?"
The Prince thought for a minute, reached into his pocket and pulled out
two photos. "I was married to this beautiful woman called Diana.", said
Charles, showing the genie the first photo. "But now I love this woman
named Camilla", and he showed the second photo to the genie. "You can
see that Camilla isn't beautiful, at all, so do you think you can make
Camilla as beautiful as Diana?"
The genie studied the two photographs and, after a few minutes, said,
"Let's go have another look at that dog."
