The Trouble with Fairy Godmothers
As an elderly lady sat on her front porch reflecting on her
long life, a Fairy Godmother suddenly appeared and offered
to fulfill three wishes for her.
"Well," said the woman, "I guess I'd like to be rich.
POOF: The Fairy Godmother turned her rocking chair into solid gold.
"And I wouldn't mind being a young and beautiful princess."
POOF: The Fairy Godmother turned the old woman into an
exquisite young princess, with a priceless crown of jewels.
"Your third wish?" asked the Fairy Godmother. The elderly
woman's dog raised his head and uttered a single, weak,
hoarse "woof." "Could you possibly turn my wonderful dog
into a handsome prince?"
POOF: There, in front of the old woman, who has now turned
into a beautiful princess, stood the most handsome young
man anyone had ever seen. More handsome than anyone
could possibly imagine. She stared at him in awe,
completely smitten. As he came toward her, her knees
weakened. He bent down, brushing his lips across her ear
as he whispered, "I'll bet you're sorry you had me neutered."
