Twice Over

A man was digging in his garden, when his shovel hit a hard object buried in the earth, which revealed itself to be an old bottle sealed with a cork. The man wrenched the cork free and, to his astonishment, there was a cloud of smoke and a clap of thunder. Standing before him was a genie.

- As a reward for freeing me, I shall grant you three wishes - said the genie:

- But understand, whatever you wish for, your most hated enemy shall receive twice over.

The man's most hated enemy happened to be his next door neighbour, Jones.

- Let's see. My first wish is... - He looked at his weather beaten bungalow:

- ...to live in a ten story luxury mansion.

The genie clapped his hands and suddenly his minute shack transformed into the most beautiful house he had ever laid eyes on. He heard a cry of astonishment from next door and looked over to see Jones standing in the doorway of his new twenty story mansion.

- Now I want fifty of the most beautiful women imaginable. - said the man. There was a puff of smoke and his wish was granted. He was annoyed, however, to see Jones grinning and waving, surrounded by his own harem of 100 women, all twice as attractive.

- What is your final wish, Master? - asked the genie.

- I want to lose a testicle - said the man.
