A wish come true

Here's the first interlude for this month of September. Be careful what you wish for, guys...

A married couple in their mid-60s were out celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic restaurant.

Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table and said, "For being such an example of married couple and for being faithful to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish".

"Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband" said the wife.

The fairy waved her magic wand and...poof ! two tickets for the Queen Mary II luxury liner appeared in her hand.

Then it was the husband's turn. He thought for a moment and said, "Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me".

The wife and the fairy were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish....

So the fairy waved her magic wand and... poof!

The husband became 95 years old.

The moral of the story : -
Men who are ungrateful should remember fairies are female !!

Hi Razif,

The Shawshank Redemption is probably my most favourite movie because it tells the story of hope and perseverance. Brilliant acting from Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman.

The story first came out in print as part of a 4-novella compilation by Stephen King called Different Seasons. I think this is King's best book. He is at his best when he writes non-horror stories.

There were slight differences in the movie compared to the book. Surprisingly, the movie version is better.

Haven't seen The Pursuit of Happiness yet. Will look for the DVD soon.
