And, in a poof of smoke, one million dollars appeared.
''Hmm... but now my ex-wife has two million dollars,'' said the man,
''But, for my next wish, I want a five-story manson." And, in a poof
of smoke his house turns into a five-story manson. ''But now my
ex-wife has a twenty-story manson,'' said the man.
''And now, for your last wish?'' asked the genie. ''Hmmm... YES! I
