A lawyer and a blonde happen to be sitting next to each other on a<br /><br />long cross-country flight. The lawyer leans over to her and asks if she<br /><br />would like to play a fun game. Now this blonde happens to be highly<br /><br />intelligent, but she is tired and just wants to take a nap, so she<br /><br />politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few<br /><br />winks. The lawyer persists, saying that the game is really easy and a<br /><br />lot of fun.<br /><br /> <br /><br />He explains how the game works.<br /><br /> <br /><br />I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me,<br /><br />and vice-versa. Again, the blonde politely declines and tries to get<br /><br />Some sleep. The lawyer figures that since his opponent is a blonde he<br /><br />Will easily win the match, so he makes another offer: Okay, how about<br /><br />this: if you don't know the answer you pay me only $5, but if I don't<br /><br />know the answer, I will pay you $500. This catches the blonde's attention<br /><br />and, figuring that there will be no end to this torment unless she<br /><br />plays, she agrees to play the game.<br /><br /> <br /><br />The lawyer asks the first question. What's the distance from the<br /><br />Earth to the moon? The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her<br /><br />purse, pulls out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer.<br /><br /> <br /><br />Now it's the blonde's turn. She asks the lawyer: What goes up a<br /><br />hill with three legs, and comes back down with four? The lawyer looks<br /><br />at her with a puzzled look. He takes out his laptop computer and<br /><br />searches all his references. He taps into the air-phone with his modem and<br /><br />searches the internet and even the Library of Congress. Frustrated,<br /><br />he sends E-mails to all his colleagues and friends, trying to get some<br /><br />help. All to no avail. After over an hour of searching for the<br /><br />answer he finally gives up. He wakes the blonde and hands her $500.<br /><br /> <br /><br />The blonde politely takes the $500 and turns away to get back to<br /><br />sleep.<br /><br /> <br /><br />The lawyer, who cannot imagine what the answer is, is going nuts<br /><br />trying to figure it out. He wakes the blonde again and asks: Well, so what<br /><br />goes up a hill with three legs and comes back down with four?<br /><br /> <br /><br />The blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5, and goes<br /><br />back to sleep.<br /><br /> <br /><br /> <br />ch other
