On a flight from LA to NY, a blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other. The lawyer asks the blonde if she wants to play a fun game.
The blonde, tired and wanting to nap, politely declines and turns to the window to rest.
The lawyer, persistent, explains that the game is simple and enjoyable.
He says, “I’ll ask you a question, and if you don’t know the answer, you pay me $5.00. Then you ask me a question, and if I don’t know the answer, I’ll pay you $500.00.”
Intrigued by the offer and wanting to end the disturbance, the blonde agrees.
The lawyer starts, “What’s the distance from the earth to the moon?”
Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands him $5.00, and tries to sleep again.
“Your turn,” says the lawyer.
The blonde asks, “What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?”
Puzzled, the lawyer takes out his laptop, searches all his references, and even uses the plane’s Wi-Fi to scour the internet and email friends. After an hour, he still has no answer.
Finally, he wakes the blonde, hands her $500.00, and she turns back to sleep.
Feeling frustrated, the lawyer wakes her again and asks, “So, what’s the answer?”
Without saying a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands him $5.00, and goes back to sleep.
