    Two Irishmen, Patrick & Michael, were adrift in a lifeboat following a
dramatic escape from a burning freighter. While rummaging through the boat's
provisions, Patrick stumbled across an old lamp.  Secretly hoping that a
genie would appear, he rubbed the lamp vigorously. To the amazement of
Patrick, a genie came forth.
     This particular genie, however, stated that he could only deliver one
wish, not the standard three.  Without giving much thought to the matter,
Patrick blurted out, "Make the entire ocean into Guinness!" The genie
clapped his hands with a deafening crash,  and immediately the entire sea
turned into the finest brew ever sampled by mortals. Simultaneously, the
genie vanished.
     Only the gentle lapping of Guinness on the hull, broke the stillness as
the two men considered their circumstances. Michael looked disgustedly at
Patrick, whose wish had been granted. After a long moment, he blurted
disgustedly: "Nice going Patrick! Now we're going to have to pee in the
boat."
