Fwd: Eternal life!

I was walking along East Beach in Bloubergstrand when I came across a
lamp partially buried in the sand.

I picked up the lamp and gave it a rub. A genie appeared and told me I
had been granted one wish.

I thought for a moment and said, "I want to live forever."

"Sorry," said the genie, "I'm not allowed to grant eternal life."

"OK, then, I want to die after the ANC government balances the budget,
eliminates the debt and stamps out corruption!"

"You sneaky little bastard," said the genie.
