Wish, With A Twist
One day a man spotted a lamp by the roadside.
He picked it up, rubbed it vigorously, and a genie appeared.
"I'll grant you your fondest wish," the genie said.
The man thought for a moment, then said, "I want a spectacular job.
A job that no man has ever succeeded at nor has ever even dared try."
"Poof!" said the genie.
"You're a housewife!"

Sneaky Lawyer
A lawyer defending a man accused of burglary tried this creative defense: 'My client merely inserted his arm into the window and removed a few trifling articles. His arm is not himself, and I fail to see how you can punish the whole individual for an offense committed by his limb.'
'Well put, ' the judge replied. 'Using your logic, I sentence the defendant's arm to one year's imprisonment. He can accompany it or not, as he chooses.'
The defendant smiled. With his lawyer's assistance he detached his artificial limb, laid it on the bench, and walked out.

Who is the Father
A man lies on his deathbed surrounded by his family: a weeping wife and four children. Three of the children are tall, good-looking, and athletic; but the fourth and the youngest is an ugly runt.
"Darling wife," The husband whispers, "assure me that the youngest child really is mine. I want to know the truth before I die, I will forgive you if..."
The wife gently interrupts him. "Yes, my dearest, absolutely, no question, I swear on my mother's grave that you are his father."
The man dies, happy.
The wife mutters under her breath: "Thank God he didn't ask me about the other three!"
