724wd Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 A lawyer and a I were sitting next to each other on a long flight. The lawyer must have been thinking that I look so gullible that he could get one over on me easy. So the lawyer asks if I would like to play a fun game. I was tired and just wanted to take a nap, so I politely declined and tried to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists, saying that the game is a lot of fun. "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me only $5. Then you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500," he says. This caught my attention and to keep the lawyer quiet, I nod my head, I’ll play. The lawyer asks the first question: "What's the distance from the Earth to the Moon?" I didn't say a word, just reached into my pocket, pulled out a five-dollar bill, and handed it to the lawyer. Now it's MY turn. I ask the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?" The lawyer uses his laptop and searches all references he could find on the internet. He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows; all to no avail. After an hour of searching, he finally gives up. He wakes me and reluctantly handed me $500. So I unceremoniously pocket the $500 and I go right back to sleep. But the lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes me up and asks, "Well, so what does go up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?" I reach into my pocket, hand the lawyer $5, I oll over and go back to sleep!
