Prayer wish

A man walking on a Sydney beach was deep in prayer. Suddenly he spoke saying "Lord grant me one wish". The sky clouded, a booming voice of the Lord replied "Because you have been faithful to me in every way, I will grant you one wish".

The man said "Build a bridge to Lord Howe Island, so I can drive over anytime I need to."

The Lord said "Your request is very materialistic and difficult, think of the logistics of such a project, the supports for such a bridge would have to reach the bottom of the Pacific! Imagine the concrete and steel it would take! I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Think again and make a wish to honor and glorify me."

The man thought about it for a long time. Finally he said "Lord, have been married and divorced four times, all of my wives said that I am uncaring and insensitive. I wish that I could understand women, I want to know how they feel inside, what they are thinking when they give me the silent treatment, why they cry when they say "Nothing" and how I can make a woman truly happy."

There was a meaningful silence, a significant pause then the Lord said "Do you want two lanes or four on that bridge?"

Ha ha, heard it before, but it is good each time.....but then again, the cartoon shows two cavemen talking and a cave woman is standing in the background. The caption goes....." I dont think there is any harm in teaching her how to talk....."
