An old guy is walking along a Florida beach when he comes across a lamp partially buried in the sand. He picks up the lamp and gives it a rub to brush off the sand.
A genie appears and tells him he has been granted one wish.
The old guy thinks for a moment and says, "I want to live forever."
"Sorry," said the genie, "I'm not allowed to grant eternal life."
"OK, then, I want to die after the Govt. balances the budget and eliminates the debt."
"You crafty little bastard," said the genie.
