    went to town next day, and on their way they met a tinker selling saucepans and gallons and the woman said to the man I wish I had one of the saucepans". The minute she said it one of the saucepans jumped into her lap. The old man got angry and said I wish it was stuck to your back side and the third wish went to take it off and he last the three wishes over a saucepan.
