Since we are in the genie genre, here is one I have always liked.

Three guys are walking along the beach and come upon a gold lantern. One of them picks it up and opens the top. A genie pops out.

The genie says this is your lucky day, gents. Like all genies I grant three wishes. Since there are three of you, you each get one.

The first guy says, "I wish I was a billionaire and lived in a mansion on the cliff in Monte Carlo."

Poof! He's gone.

The second guy says, "I wish I lived on a tropical island, alone with a gorgeous woman."

Poof! He's gone, too.

The third guy has a hard time deciding. "This is so hard," he says. "I'm so used to running everything by Alan and Terry before deciding what to do. I wish my friends were here to help me."

Poof!

>Poof! .... God gave him big arms and strong legs and he was able to swim across in about 2 hours, having almost drowned twice.

>After witnessing that, the second man prayed: 'God, please give me strength and the tools to cross the river.'

>Poof! ... God gave him a rowboat and strong arms and strong legs and he was able to row across in about an hour after almost capsizing once.

>Seeing what happened to the first two men, the third man prayed: 'God, please give me the strength, the tools and the intelligence to cross the river.'

>Poof! ..... He was turned into a woman. She checked the map, hiked one hundred yards up stream and walked across the bridge.
