A Smart Blonde

[Snip3r]

A lawyer and a blonde woman 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 is tired and just wants to take a nap,
so she politely declines and rolls over to the window
to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists, saying that
the game is really easy and a lot of fun.

He explains how the game works:
"I ask you a question, and if you don't know
the answer, you pay me, and visa-versa."

Again, she politely declines and tries to get some sleep.

The chauvinistic lawyer figures that since
his opponent is a blonde he will easily win the
match, so he makes another offer:

"Okay, how about this, if you don't know the
answer you pay me only $5, but if I don't know
the answer, I will pay you $500."

This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring that
there will be no end to this torment unless she plays,
she agrees to play 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 even the Library of Congress. Frustrated, he
sends E-mails to all his co-workers and friends he
knows. All to no avail.

After over an hour, of searching for the answer he
finally gives up. He wakes the blonde and hands her $500.
The blonde politely takes the $500 and turns
away to get back to sleep.

The lawyer, who is more than a little frustrated, wakes
the blonde and asks, "Well, so what IS the answer?"

Again without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse,
hands the lawyer $5, and goes back to sleep.
