A guy is walking along...
There is nothing extraordinary about him. We're not talking a saint here. But he has tried to live a good life. He is religious, but not pushy.
He's walking along...thinking about what he might wish for if God were to grant him a wish.
All of a sudden...
PING
You really should have a wish...you ask for so little, so I thought I'd grant you one
Well gee...I really don't know what I'd wish for...
That's all right...take your time. I'm nothing if not patient
(he thinks for a bit)
Well, you know...I really don't like to fly, but I've always wanted to see Hawaii. Maybe you could make a bridge so I could....you know...drive there...
Well, I certainly could do that, but that's a rather petty wish...and disappointing. Are you really sure that's what you want?
No...not really...I'll think some more.
(he thinks for a bit and realizes...)
You know...I've been divorced twice, and my third marriage is kind of on the rocks. I know what I want! I'd like to be able to understand women, so that I know how to do the right thing. To know what makes them happy, what upsets them...so that I can maybe save my marriage. Could you do that>

Do you want that bridge to be two lanes or four lanes?
