"Game, The" joke

A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from LA to NY. The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game? The blonde, tired, just wants to take a nap, politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists and explains that the game is easy and lot of fun. He explains, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5 and vice versa." Again, she declines and tried to get some sleep. The lawyer, now 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 $500."
This catch the blonde's attention and, figuring there will be no end to this torment unless she plays, agrees to the game. The lawyer asks the first question. "What is the distance from earth to the moon?" The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her purse, pull out a $5 bill and hands it to the lawyer. "OK," says the lawyer, "You turn" She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs and come down with four legs?" The lawyer puzzled, takes out his laptop computer and searches all his reference, no answer. He taps into the air phone with his modem and searches the net and the library of congress, no answer. Frustrated, he sends e-mail to all his friends and co-workers, to no avail. After an hour, he wakes the blonde, and hand her $500. The blonde says, "Thank you!" And turns back to get some more sleep. The lawyer, who is more than little miffed, wakes the blonde and asks, "Well. what was the answer?"
Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hand the lawyer $5, and go to sleep.
