I guy walks into a bar and sees a guy in the corner playing the piano who looks to be about one foot tall. He thinks that's strange but doesn't want to say anything. He sits down at the bar and on the bar is an old tarnished brass thing. He asked the bartender about it, and the bartender says it's a magic lamp with a genie inside. The guy scoffs, but the bartender insists there really is a genie. He explains that everyone gets to rub the lamp and when the genie pops out they get one wish. The guy figures he has nothing to lose except maybe to look foolish, so he rubs the lamp and sure enough a genie pops out. The guy is astonished. The genie asks what his wish is. He says "I want a barrel full of money" and poof there is a puff of smoke and the genie is gone and there is a barrel sitting on the floor where the genie had been. There is no lid on the barrel and when he looks inside the guy sees a liquid. It smells good. He dips his finger in it and licks his finger. "Hey! This is a barrel of honey!" I asked for a barrel of money!" The bartender says, "Yea. That's the way it goes. Do you think I asked for a 12" pianist?"
