A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from LA to
NY. The lawyer asks her "Would you 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 vice 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 coworkers 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's the answer?"
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.
