A hairdresser and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from Seattle to LA. The lawyer persuades the lady to play a fun game with him, but she’s so tired and politely declines the offer saying she needs to take a nap.
The lawyer says “oh, its going to be fun, we ask questions in turns – if I’m not able to answer yours, I’ll pay $5 & vice-versa.”
The lady is still not interested. “OK, you pay $5 if u aren’t able to answer and I’ll pay $500 if I’m unable to.” That caught her attention and she finally gave in.
The lawyer started: “what is the distance from the earth to the sun?” Without a word, the lady reached for her purse and gave him $5.
“Ok, your turn” said the lawyer smiling. The lady spoke calmly: “What goes up the hill with 3 legs and comes down with 4?” The lawyer took his laptop to search through his references, after some time, he started sending emails his friends for help all to no avail. He then woke the lady up and gave her $500. She took it and went back to sleep. The lawyer was baffled and woke her up “what is the answer?” Without a word she reached for her purse and gave him $5.
