» 3 wishes | One Dollar Jackpot - 25 Words or Less Competition

If you could transport yourself instantly anywhere right now - where would you go?

Two lazy English workers and their boss go out at lunch time and run into a genie.

The genie greets them and says, “If you all give me a dollar each, I’ll grant you one wish.”

Each of the men think, ‘Finally I can get what I’ve always wanted!’ and give the genie their dollar.

The laziest and pushiest worker goes first, “I would like to go to Australia and lie on the beach with a wonderful woman by my side in warm, wonderful sunshine.” POOF! He was gone.

‘Wow, what a sweet idea’, exclaim the other two.

The second laziest worker butts in just as his boss is about to say something and wishes for a beautiful wife, mansion and 500 million dollars in Hawaii.

he boss looks at his watch and says to the genie, “I want them both back and working harder than ever by the end of lunch.”

Where would you go instantly? Enter the competition now (as long as I have changed the front page)

Ever wished you were somewhere/something else? Ever wished you were anyone else but you? The desire to be different from yourself is huge and if you watch TV enough (like me) you’ll be permanently dissatisfied with who you are, where you live, and why you live. So a cathartic exercise is due - get it out, get it to me. Finish the sentence “I wish that I…”

I wish I was a neutron bomb for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence I wish I was the grounds
For 50 million hands upraised and open toward the sky

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate as fortunate as me
I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro’s hood

I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on
I wish I was the verb ‘to trust’ and never let you down

I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up
I wish…
I wish…
