[BITList] Smart!

[John Feltham]

An American Lawyer and a Australian are sitting next to each other on  
a long flight.

The American Lawyer is thinking that Australians are so dumb that he  
could get over on them easy.

So the American Lawyer asks if the Australian would like to play a fun  
game.

The Australian is tired and just wants to take a nap, so he politely  
declines and tries to catch a few winks.

The American Lawyer persists, and says 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; you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay  
you $500" he says.

This catches the Australian's attention and to keep the American  
Lawyer quiet, he agrees to play the game.

The American Lawyer asks the first question. 'What's the distance from  
the Earth to the Moon?'

The Australian reaches in his pocket pulls out a five-dollar bill and  
hands it to the American Lawyer without saying a word.

Now, it's the Australian's turn.

He asks the American Lawyer, 'What goes up a hill with three legs, and  
comes down with four?'

The American Lawyer uses his laptop and searches all references he  
could 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 up the Australian and hands him $500.

The Australian pockets the $500 and goes right back to sleep.

The American Lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer.

He wakes up the Australian and asks, 'Well, so what goes up a hill  
with three legs and comes down with four?'

The Australian reaches in his pocket, hands the American Lawyer $5 and  
goes back to sleep.
