I was driving to work this morning when all of a sudden, a little
elf appeared on the seat next to me.
"I'll grant you any wish you like," he said.
"Why don't I get three wishes?" I asked.
"Because I'm an elf, not a genie!" he said.
"Ok," I said, "I'd like to have $1000 for every day of the rest
of my life."
The elf thought a minute, then gave me a $50.
