Not So Dumb Blonde
A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight
from Los Angeles to New York.
The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game. The blonde,
tired, 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 easy and a lot of fun.
He says, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the
answer, you pay me five dollars, 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, and if I don't know the answer, I
will pay you $500."
This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring there will
be no end to this torment, 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, "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 Internet and the Library of
Congress ... no answer. Frustrated, he sends e-mails to all
his friends and coworkers but to no avail.
After an hour, he wakes the blonde and hands her $500.
The blonde thanks him and turns back to get some more sleep.
The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed, stirs the blonde
and asks, "Well, what's the answer?"
Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the
lawyer $5, and goes back to sleep.
