I got this joke in an e-mail a few weeks ago from my blogging friend, Matthew. I thought it was really funny.
There was a blonde who found herself sitting next to a
Lawyer on an airplane. The lawyer just kept bugging the blonde wanting her to
play a game of intelligence. Finally, the lawyer offered her 10 to 1 odds, and
said every time the blonde could not answer one of his questions, she owed him
$5, but every time he could not answer hers, he'd give her $50.00. The lawyer
figured he could not lose, and the blonde reluctantly accepted.
The lawyer first asked, "What is the distance
between the Earth and the nearest star?"
Without saying a word the blonde handed him $5. then the
blonde asked, "What goes up a hill with 3 legs and comes back down the
hill with 4 legs?"
Well, the lawyer looked puzzled. He took several hours,
looking up everything he could on his laptop and even placing numerous
air-to-ground phone calls trying to find the answer. Finally, angry and
frustrated, he gave up and paid the blonde $50.00
The blonde put the $50 into her purse without comment,
but the lawyer insisted, "What is the answer to your question?"
Without saying a word, the blonde handed him $5.
