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 goes up a hill with three legs and comes down
with four
legs?"
Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the
lawyer
$5.00, and goes back to sleep.
And you thought blondes were dumb.
