Working Daze by John Zakour and Scott Roberts for March 11, 2023

You do that

Be careful what you wish for.

This could end up horribly wrong.

This is great, guys!

Since you are a programmer, Jay, you might have chosen your words to be far more precise. :-D

Your 2nd wish is to ALWAYS cancel the first

The military has a cookie recipe that is around 24 pages long. Crazy amount of detail for a basic cookie recipe you could find on a bag of chocolate chips. Just write the wish like the military wrote that recipe… or like a contract lawyer. That’ll get those genies. :-]

Gene-?

A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA. Some genes act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. However, many genes do not code for proteins. In humans, genes vary in size from a few hundred DNA bases to more than 2 million bases.

You’d better.

Genies are SO literal.

good thing Jay still has those other two wishes …

My first wish would be to own all the rest of the magic lamps

Not sure why he needs a genie when he already has a magic-wielding girlfriend.

The Genie must be a fan of “The Monkey’s Paw”, kind of a chilling story:

Say Happy Birthday to Douglas Adams for us Jay, he would have been 73 today.

Have you seen Jay? – Yea, he’s there, and there, and there, and on the third floor…

Genies and metaphor do not mix.

The obvious first wish would be that and the genie would be close, unselfish friends forever…
