Talking One Wish

A man walking along a California beach was deep in prayer. All of
a sudden,he said out loud, "Lord, grant me one wish." The sky clouded above his head and in a booming voice, the Lord said, "Because you have tried to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish."

The man said, "Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over
anytime I want."The Lord said, "Your request is very materialistic. Think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking. The supports required to reach the bottom of the Pacific! The concrete and steel it would take! I can do it,but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things.Take a little more time and think of another wish, a wish you think would honor and glorify me."

The man thought about it for a long time. Finally he said, "Lord,
I wish that I could understand women. I want to know how they feel inside, what they are thinking when they give the silent treatment, why they cry, what they mean when they say 'nothing,' and how I can make a woman truly happy."

The Lord replied, "You want two lanes or four on that bridge?"

You want to understand women.......
pass an eight pound kidneystone, stick a tampon in your butt, and schedule a belly ache every 28 days. It pays to be a guy.

Yes, and your truck is never jealous.
Never runs around on ya.
Can't say always faithful, but does not stray for sure
And if it gains a little weight?
so what?

My truck gets really jealous when I drive anything else - always has done. If I drive nothing for a couple of days, the truck is fine, If I drive nothing for a week the truck is fine. If I drive anything else, my truck will take a lot of effort to get it started. I was laid up with an injury for three weeks, and the truck sat doing nothing; Started right up when I went to it. I drive anything else for more than one day, and the truck just don't want to start. There is nothing at all mechanically wrong with it, nothing electrical wrong with it, it just gets jealous.
