"The GMC owner prayed to God asking for a wish to be granted. He
said, "God, you have promised to give me the desires of my heart.
That's what I'm asking for right now. Please give me a confirmation
that you will grant my wish.
Suddenly the sky clouded up over his head and God in a booming voice
spoke to him "I have searched your heart and determined it to be
pure. The last time I issued a blank wish request, it was to
Solomon, He didn't disappoint me either. Because you have been
faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you the wish you ask for"
The man said, "I've always wanted to go to Hawaii, but I'm deathly
afraid of flying and I get very seasick on boats. Could you build a
bridge to Hawaii, so I can drive there in my GMC? " God laughed and
said, "That's not very practical! Think of the logistics of that!
How would the supports ever reach the bottom of the Pacific? Think
of how much concrete... how much steel !!! Your request is very
materialistic, and a little disappointing. I could do it, but it's
hard for me to justify your craving for worldly things. Take a
little more time and think of another wish, a wish you think would
honor and glorify me as well" The man thought about it for a long
while and tried to think of a really good wish. Finally, he said,
"Here's the deal, God. I've been married and divorced four times. My
wives always said that I don't care and that I'm insensitive. So I
wish that I could truly understand women. I want to know how they
feel inside and what they're thinking when they give me the silent
treatment... I want to know why they're crying... I want to know what
they really mean when they say nothing ..I want to know how to make
them truly happy... that's the wish I want, God"
God was silent for several minutes,

Finally He said, " do you want two lanes or four lanes on that bridge?"
