The Blonde and the Lawyer
A lawyer and a blonde are sitting next to each other on a long 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 ask you a question, and if you don't know
the answer, you pay me $5, and visa-versa."
Again, she politely declines and tries to get some sleep. The lawyer,
now somewhat agitated, says, "Okay, if you
don't know the answer you pay me $5, and if I don't know the answer, I
will pay you $50!" figuring that since she is
a blonde that he will easily win the match. This catches the blonde's
attention and, figuring 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 with a puzzled look. He
takes out his laptop computer and
searches all his references. He taps into the Airphone with his modem
and searches the Net and the Library of
Congress. Frustrated, he sends E-mails to all his coworkers and
friends he knows. All to no avail. After over an
hour, he wakes the blonde and hands her $50. The blonde politely takes
the $50 and turns away to get back to
sleep. The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed, 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.
