A wish for unsurpassed beauty, if currently u navailable, may be substituted by a mani-pedi and a $200 Sephora gift certificat e or a wig made of flax and a papier-mch mask.) These terms and conditions for your three wishes are subject to change at any ti me. Wish granters will notify wish makers of any changes to the wishes and the g ranting thereof via bread crumb trail, fairy godmother, magic mirror, or carrier pigeon. Note: sometimes notification is not possible until after the wish in qu estion has been granted. Limitation of liability: the wish maker must expressly understand and agree that in no event will the wish granter be liable for any damages whatsoever, includi ng any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special or exemplary damages , and any damages for loss of profits, savings, goodwill or other intangible los ses, regardless of whether the wish granter has been advised or could have fores

een the possibility of such damages, arising out of or in connection with the gr anting of a) the first wish b) the second wish or c) the third wish. This includ es emotional distress ranging from mild personal embarrassment to the sudden ind ucement of psychosis and physical distress ranging from an outbreak of hives to a slight lengthening of the nose to dismemberment and death, and any other kind of distress you can think of. Also any kind of just plain stress. The wish granter's decisions in respect to all matters to do with the wishes are f inal and no correspondence will be entered into. The wish granter does not have an email address or a snail mail address, either.

By accepting these three wishes, a wish maker is indicating his/her agreement to be bound by these terms and conditions. And finally: The wish maker's first wish must be ridiculous and of no real use to the wish make r at all. The wish maker's second wish must be even sillier. In fact, the wish maker is stro ngly advised to make his or her second wish mildly harmful to his or her own per son, keeping in mind the disclaimer listed above, which states that the wish gra nter cannot be held liable in any way for the consequences of said wish. The third wish must be used to indemnify the first two.
