A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a
flight from LA to NY. The lawyer asks if she would like
to play a fun game?
The blonde, tired, just wants to take a nap, politely
declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few
winks.
The lawyer persists and explains that the game is easy
and a lot of fun. He explains, "I ask you a question,
and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5.00,
and vise versa."
Again, she declines and tries to get some sleep.
The lawyer, now agitated, says, "Okay, if you don't
know the answer you pay me $5.00, and if I don't
know the answer, I will pay you $500.00."
This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring there
will be no end to this torment unless she plays, agrees
to the game.
The lawyer asks the first question. "What's the
distance from the earth to the moon?" The blonde doesn't
say a word, reaches into her purse, pulls out a $5.00
bill and hands it to the lawyer. Okay says the lawyer,
your turn.
She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three
legs and comes down with four legs?"
The lawyer, puzzled, takes out his laptop computer and
searches all his references, no answer. He taps into the
air phone with his modem and searches the net and the
library of congress, no answer. Frustrated, he sends
e-mails to all his friends and coworker, to no avail.
After an hour, he wakes the blonde, and hands her $500.
The blonde says, "Thank you", and turns back to get some
more sleep.
The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed, wakes the
blonde and asks, "Well, what's the answer?"
Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands
the lawyer $5.00, and goes back to sleep.
