Ole and Sven were fishing on the Minnesota opener when Sven pulled out a cigar.
Finding he had no matches, he asked Ole for a light.
' Ya, shure, I tink I haff a lighter, ' he replied, and then reaching into his tackle box,
he pulled out a Bic lighter 10 inches long.
' Yiminy Cricket! ' exclaimed Sven, taking the huge Bic Lighter in his hands.
' Vere dit yew git dat monster?? '
' Vell, ' replied Ole, ' I got it from my Genie. '
' You haff a Genie? ' Sven asked.
' Ya, shure. It ' s right here in my tackle box, ' says Ole.
' Could I see him? '
Ole opens his tackle box & sure enough, out pops the Genie.
Addressing the genie, Sven says, ' Hey dere! I ' m a good friend of your master. ?
Vill you grant me vun vish? '
' Yes, I will, ' says the Genie.
So Sven asks the Genie for a million bucks.
The Genie disappears back into the tackle box leaving Sven sitting there waiting for his million bucks.
Shortly, the sky darkens and is filled with the sound of a million ducks....
flying directly overhead.
Over the roar of the million ducks Sven yells at Ole, ' Yumpin ' Yimminy,
I asked for a million bucks, not a million ducks! '
Ole answers, ' Ya, I forgot to tell yew dat da Genie is hart of hearing.
Do yew really tink I asked for a 10-inch Bic?"
