Dedicated to the thread that mentioned selling souls:

OK, here's how it goes:
A young boy was walking down the street one day. The boy was coming home from his friend's house, and was near dark. He decided to just admire the dusk/night scenery when a shadow came up to him. In a poof of a cloud, the Devil came to him, sneering. He had blood-red horns like a mutated cow, a tail with an arrow tip, and wore a dark red cloak. He said to the boy:
"Fate has chosen you for the next sacrifice. I will give you 3 chances to commit me to do something that I can't do. If I can't do it, then I will let you go free and I will be locked up in Hell forever. But if I do, then your soul shall be sacrificed to the pleasure of.. well, me! I shall start tomorrow, and give you one chance every day. So get thinking!"
The Devil was about to leave, when he said: "Oh by the way, no one has been able to do this yet, just FYI," and vanished as quick as he came. The boy was confused, for he was not a spiritual person, but he was witty... So the next day came.
"Well foolish young boy," the Devil chuckled in delight, rubbing his sweaty hands, "Let me hear your first command." The boy had thought last night without much difficulty, and said: "Can you go around the World in less than a second, and go to all places on Earth?"
"Why, of course!" replied the Devil, and soon was gone. He returned exactly one second later, and held all sorts of memorials and objects in his hand that proved that he had really gone to all the places. The boy looked delighted rather than surprised, and walked away grinning. The Devil called after him: "Remember, two days left!"
The next day, the boy said to the Devil: "If you went to all the places on Earth, then can you go to all the places that exist in less than a second?"
"With pleasure," said the Devil, and once again vanished for a second. He returned with a little TV-like device showing all the voyages he had in less than one mere second, once again proving that he had been around all the universe. The boy snickered in a jolly fashion to himself, and the Devil, guessing that probably he'd gone insane in loss of thought, smiled and disappeared.
On the last day, the Devil came up to the boy and said, "Well, what is your last command?" while he got out his pitchfork, polishing it.
The boy replied, "Only two words: Get lost!"
