> A lawyer and a senior citizen are sitting next to each other on a long flight.
> 
> The lawyer is thinking that seniors are so dumb that he could get one 
> over on them easy.
> 
> So the lawyer asks if the senior would like to play a fun game.
> 
> The senior is tired and just wants to take a nap, so he politely 
> declines and tries 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 catches the senior's attention and, to keep the lawyer quiet, he 
> agrees to play the game.
> 
> The lawyer asks the first question. 'What's the distance from the 
> Earth to the Moon?'
> 
> The senior doesn't say a word, but reaches into his pocket, pulls out 
> a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer.
> 
> Now it's the senior's turn. He asks 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 can find on the Net.
> 
> 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 the senior and hands him $500. The senior pockets the $500 
> and goes right back to sleep.
> 
> The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes the senior 
> up and asks, 'Well, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes 
> down with four?'
> 
> The senior reaches into his pocket, hands the lawyer $5, and goes 
> back to sleep.
