A man riding his Harley was riding along a California beach when
suddenly the sky clouded above his head and, in a booming voice, the
Lord said, 'Because you have tried to be faithful to me in all ways, I
will grant you one wish.'
The biker pulled over and said, 'Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can
ride over anytime I want.'
The Lord said, 'Your request is materialistic; think of the enormous
challenges for that kind of undertaking; the supports required to
reach the bottom of the Pacific and the concrete and steel it would
take! It will nearly exhaust several natural resources. I can do it,
but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Take
a little more time and think of something that could possibly help
mankind.'
The biker thought about it for a long time.
Finally, he said, 'Lord, I wish that I and all men could understand
our wives; I want to know how she feels inside, what she's thinking
when she gives me the silent treatment, why she cries, what she means
when she says nothing's wrong, and how I can make her truly happy.'
The Lord replied, 'You want two lanes or four on that bridge?'
