The More You Know...

I have often wondered what it would be like to unearth a "real" genie in a bottle and what I would do with the resulting 3 wishes. Of course money, better looks, and some form of supernatural ability come to mind, but then, would I be given the exact thing I wished for or what I actually meant by my wish? For example, if I wished for the ability to fly couldn't my genie easily transform me into a bird or bestow upon me some mutant wings? So, in this case I would have to be extremely specific about how I wanted to acquire and apply my gift of flight, and in this case I feel it may warrant a well put together essay so their is no mistaking what I am asking for. I would have to think about altitude complications, other air crafts, and some approach to keeping bugs out of my face, and that's only wish number one.

What I'm trying to say here is, be careful when stumbling upon some bejeweled bottle on the beach and think about how complicated life could get if one word is off or one detail is missed in the wish process.
