The politician, the oil baron and the pilot
A politician, an oil baron and their pilot crash in the middle of the ocean. They eventually end up on an island and the three decide to part ways and meet again on the beach at sunset. When they meet again, the politician returned with 4 fish, the Oil Baron found what he needed to make an open fire, and the pilot found a mysteriously sealed bottle. Since every man got his one fish, the politician was about to grab the last fish when the oil baron slapped his hand. They got into an argument, and the politician believed that since he spent all day catching fish, he deserved his extra. The oil baron disagreed, saying he was supplying the material needed to cook the fish and therefore it should be his. The conflict escalated and when they were about to start a fistfight, the pilot sat back and rubbed his bottle nervously. Suddenly, the bottle's cork flew off and a giant green genie appeared in front of them, muscular arms folded in front of it. "You set me free, weary traveller!" he booms at the pilot. "I was dumped in the middle of the ocean centuries ago, and now, as is the custom, I will grant you three wishes in gratitude." The pilot stopped the genie and asked if, instead of making three wishes, he could give each of them one, to which the genie generously agreed. The pilot has thought about this before and was about to make his wish, but the politician angrily pointed at the oil baron and spat, "I wish all greedy people like him would go away!" The genie laughed and was about to grant the wish until the oil baron said, "Well, I wish all power-hungry people like ER would go away!" The genie looked worried and asked the pilot what he wanted. The pilot thinks for a few minutes and then says to the genie, "I want my plane fixed, good as new." All three look at the pilot, confused by his humble wish. "You can ask for ANYTHING. Why would you only wish for that?" says an amazed politician. "Well, I was about to wish for world peace," said the pilot, "but you both seemed to have taken care of it."
