THREE LEGED CREEK

A lawyer and a blonde are sitting next to each other at the bar. The
lawyer leans over to her and asks if she would like to play a fun game.
The blonde, drunk and dozing, 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.
