> Cinderella is now 95 years old.

>

> After a fulfilling life with the now dead prince, 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 checks, and I wish I were

> wealthy beyond comprehension.

>

>

> Instantly her rocking chair turned into solid gold.

>

> Cinderella said,

> "Ooh, thank you, Fairy Godmother"

>

> The fairy godmother replied, "It is the least that I can do.

> What do you want for your second wish?"

>

> Cinderella looked down at her frail body, and said,

> "I wish I were young and full of the beauty and youth I once had"

>

> At once, her wish became reality, and her beautiful young visage

> returned.Cinderella felt stirrings inside of her that had been dormant

> for years.

>

> And then the fairy godmother spoke once more:

> "You have one more wish; what shall it be?"

>

>

> Cinderella looks over to the frightened cat in the corner and says, "I

> wish for you to transform Bob, my old cat,

> into a kind and handsome young man."

>

>

> Magically, Bob suddenly underwent so fundamental a change in his

> biological make-up that, when he stood before her, he was a man so

> beautiful the likes of him neither she nor the world had ever seen.

>

> The fairy godmother said,

> "Congratulations, Cinderella, enjoy your new life."

>

> With a blazing shock of bright blue electricity,

> the fairy godmother was gone as suddenly as she appeared.

>

> For a few eerie moments,

>

> Bob and Cinderella looked into each other's eyes.

>

> Cinderella sat, breathless, gazing at the most beautiful, stunningly

> perfect man she had ever seen.

>

> Then Bob walked over to Cinderella, who sat transfixed in her rocking

> chair, &held her close in his young muscular arms.

>

> He leaned in close,

> blowing her golden hair

> with his warm breath

> as he whispered...

>

> "Bet you're sorry you neutered me."
