The Game
A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from LA to
NY. The lawyer asks if she would 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 vise 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 coworker, 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.
