A Lawyer & A Blonde
A lawyer and a blonde 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 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 really
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, and visa-versa."
Again, she politely declines and tries to get some sleep.
The lawyer, now somewhat 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 $50"
figuring that since she is a blonde that he will easily
win the match.
This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring that
there will be no end
to this torment unless she plays, she 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
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 digital cellphone via
infra-red wireless connection to
his modem port and searches the Net and the Library
of Congress. Frustrated,he sends E-mail to all his co-workers, friends,
clients, and suppliers that
he knows. And then some. All to no avail. After over an hour, he wakes the
blonde and hands her $50. The blonde politely takes the
$50 and turns away to get back to sleep.
The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed,
wakes the blonde and asks,
"Well, so what IS the answer?"
Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse,
hands the lawyer $5, and goes back to sleep.
blonde?
