Easy money
> **An Alberta lawyer and a Newfoundlander are sitting next to each other
> on the long flight to Halifax.***
> ***The lawyer is thinking that Newfoundlanders are so dumb that he can
> fool them easy... ***
> ***So the lawyer asks if the Newfoundlander would like to play a fun
> game. ***
> ***The Newfoundlander is tired and just wants to take a nap, so he
> politely declines and tries to catch a few winks. ***
> ***The 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.'***
>
> ***This catches the Newfoundlanders 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 Newfoundlander doesn't say a word, reaches in his pocket, pulls
> out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer. ***
> ***Now, it's the Newfoundlanders turn.***
> ***He asks the lawyer, 'What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes
> down with four?'***
> ***The lawyer uses his laptop, searches all the references he knows. ***
> ***He uses the air-phone; he searches the Net and even the Library of
> Congress. He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows, all to no
> avail.***
> ***After over an hour of searching, he finally gives up. ***
> ***He wakes up the Newfoundlander and hands him $500. The
> Newfoundlander pockets the $500 and goes right back to sleep.***
> ***The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes the
> Newfoundlander up and asks, 'Well, so what goes up a hill with three
> legs and comes down with four?'***
> ***The Newfoundlander reaches in his pocket, hands the lawyer $5 and
> goes back to sleep.***
> ***. . . Don't mess with us Newfoundlanders. We only talk different...~~~I can not change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to
always reach my destination~~~
