Make A Wish

A couple were celebrating their 40th. Wedding anniversary in a quiet,
romantic little restaurant. Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy
appeared at their table and said 'For being such an exemplary married
couple and for being faithful to each other for all this time, I will
give you each a wish.'
'Oh, I want to travel around the world with my dearest husband' said the
wife. The fairy moved her magic stick and - abracadabra!- two tickets
for the QE2 luxury liner appeared in her hands.
Now it was the husbands turn. He thought for a moment and said ’Well
this is all very romantic- but an opportunity like this only occurs once
in a lifetime...so. I’m sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30
years younger than me.'
The wife and the fairy were deeply disappointed, but, a wish is a
wish....
So the fairy made a circle with her magic stick and - abracadabra!- the
husband became 92 years old.
You see men might be bastards, but fairies are... female.
