In the Mindstretch section of READ Magazine--Issue 3, we started a joke that goes a little something like this:

Three men are stranded on an island. They find a genie living in a conch shell. He grants each of them one wish. The first man says, "I want to go home." POOF! He is gone. The second man says, "I want to go home." POOF! He is gone. The third man looks around and says ...

What does he say?!? Well, the original punchline was that the third man says, "Gee I miss my friends. I wish they were here." Ba dum chhhh.

Well, that was pretty corny. The following punchlines are much better and they come straight from you, our READers!

"Hey, how come I'm still here?" - submitted by Shandrieka

"So, what's new with you?" - submitted by Skyla

"Hey, where did everyone go?" - submitted by Misty

"I'll take a jet ski please" - submitted by Patrick

"Man, I wish my friends were here to help me make my decision." - submitted by Matt

"E-mail me!" and "Hold up! I'm on the phone." - submitted by Ms. Garner's 8th grade class

Thanks to everyone who submitted their funny ha ha's!
