An old lady was rocking away the last of her days on her front porch, reflecting on her long life, when — all of a sudden — a fairy godmother appeared in front of her and informed her that she would be granted three wishes.

“Well, now,” sayed the old lady, “I guess I would like to be really rich.”

*** POOF ***

Her rocking chair turned to solid gold.

“And, gee, I guess I wouldn’t mind being a young, beautiful princess.”

*** POOF ***

She turned into a beautiful young woman.

“Your third wish?” asked the fairy godmother.

Just then the old woman’s cat wandered across the porch in front of them.

“Ooh — can you change him into a handsome young prince?” she asked.

*** POOF ***

There before her stood a young man more handsome than anyone could possibly imagine. She stared at him, smitten. With a smile that made her knees weak, he sauntered across the porch and whispers in her ear.

“Bet you’re sorry you had me neutered.”
