A lawyer and a blonde woman are sitting next to each other on a flight from LA to NY.
The lawyer leans over to her and asks if she would like to play a fun game.
The blonde just wants to take a nap, so she politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.
The lawyer persists, and explains that the game is really easy and a lot of fun. He explains, "I'll ask a question. If you don't know the answer,
you pay me $5, and vice-versa."
Again, she politely declines, and tries to get some sleep.
The lawyer, figuring that since she is a blonde he will easily win the match, still persists. To entice her to play, he ups the ante and says,
"Okay, if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5, and if I don't know the answer that you ask me, I'll pay you $500!"
The blonde, thinking that 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 in to her purse, pulls out a five dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer.
Now it's the blonde's turn. She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?"
The lawyer looks at her, truly puzzled. He takes out his laptop computer and searches all his references. He taps into the Airphone with his
modem, and searches the internet and the Library of Congress. Talked to all his co-workers and friends he knows, all to no avail.
After over an hour of futility and frustration, he wakes the blonde and hands her $500. The blonde politely takes the $500, then turns away to
go back to sleep.
The lawyer, more than a little irritated, wakes the blonde and asks, "Well, so what IS the answer?"
Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5, and goes back to sleep.
