Cinderella is now 95 years old.

After a fulfilling life with the prince now dead, she happily sits upon her rocking chair, watching the world go by from her front porch, with a cat named Bob for companionship.

One sunny afternoon out of nowhere, appeared the Fairy godmother.

Cinderella said, ‘Fairy Godmother, what are you doing here after all these years’?

The Fairy Godmother replied, ‘Cinderella, you have lived an exemplary life since I last saw you. Is there anything for which your heart still yearns?’

Cinderella was taken aback, overjoyed, and after some thoughtful consideration, she uttered her first wish,

‘The prince was wonderful, but not much of an investor. I’m living hand to mouth on my disability cheques, and I wish I were wealthy beyond comprehension.’
Instantly her rocking chair turned into solid gold.

Cinderella said, ‘Ooh, thank you, Fairy Godmother..’

A bear and a rabbit are walking through the woods when they come across a golden frog. They think this is an amazing discovery and they are even more amazed when it talks to them. The golden frog admits that he is a magical frog, and doesn’t often meet other residents of the forest, but when he does, he grants them three wishes each.

The bear immediately asks that all the other bears in the forest be female. The frog immediately grants this wish.

The rabbit, after thinking for a while, asks for a crash helmet and one appears, which he places on his head.

The bear is amazed at this, but carries on with his next wish. He asks that all the bears in the neighboring forests be female as well. This wish is also fulfilled.

A little old lady was in the kitchen one day, washing the dishes when suddenly a little genie appeared beside her.

“You’ve led a long and good life” the genie said, “I have come to reward you by granting you three wishes. Ask for anything you want and I will make it happen.”

The old lady was surprised but cynical. Not really believing that anything would happen she decided to play along for a minute. “Ok” she said, “turn all those dirty dishes into money.” With that there was a big Poof! and the dishes had turned into a big pile of cash.

“My” said the old lady, staggered that it had actually worked, “Perhaps you could make me look young and beautiful again?” There was another big poof and the woman now looked lots younger and was very good looking. Excitedly she carried on, “Can you turn my dear old cat into a handsome young man?”
