A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him.
The waitress asks for their order.
The man says, “I’ll have a hamburger, fries, and a coke.”
He turns to the ostrich and asks, “What about you?”
“I’ll have the same,” says the ostrich.
A few minutes later, the waitress brings the food and says,
“That’ll be $9.40.”
The man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact change. No counting. No wallet. Just the right amount.
The next day, the same thing happens.
Same order. Same ostrich. Same exact change.
This goes on for days.
Then one Friday night, the man says,
“Today I’ll have a steak, baked potato, and a salad.”
“Same,” says the ostrich.
The waitress brings the food. “That’ll be $32.62.”
Once again, the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact amount.
At this point, the waitress can’t hold back.
“Sir… how do you always have the exact amount of money? No matter what you order?”
The man smiles.
“Well, a few years ago, I found an old lamp in the attic. I rubbed it, and a Genie appeared. He gave me two wishes.
For the first one, I asked that anytime I needed to pay for something, I’d just reach into my pocket and find the exact amount.”
“Wow,” says the waitress. “That’s smart. You’ll never run out of money.”
“Exactly,” says the man. “Whether it’s a cup of coffee or a new car, I never need to check. It’s always just there.”
She looks at the ostrich and asks, “And the bird?”
The man sighs and says,
“For my second wish… I asked for a tall chick with long legs who’d follow me around and agree with everything I say.”
