Smart ass lawyer

[spaz101]

A lawyer and a Chinese man are sitting next to each other on a long flight. The lawyer is thinking that all Chinese people are dumb and that he could easily get one over on them and so the lawyer asks if the Chinese man would like to play a fun game. The Chinese man is tired and just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and tries to go to sleep. The lawyer persists and says that the game is a lot of fun. He says to the Chinese man

"I'll ask you a question and if you don't know the answer you have to give me �5. Then you can ask me a question, but if I don't know the answer I have to give you �500!"

This catches the Chinese' mans 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 Chinese man doesn't say a word, reaches in his pocket, pulls out a fiver, and hands it to the lawyer. Then the Chineseman asks his question.

"What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?"

The lawyer uses his laptop and searches all references he could find on the Net. He sends e-mails to all of his smart friends, but no one knows the answer. After an hour of searching he finally gives up. He wakes up the Chinese man and hands him �500. The Chinese man pockets the �500 and goes right back to sleep.

The lawyer is going nuts, not knowing the answer. He wakes the Chinese man up and asks

"What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?"

The Chinese man shrugs his shoulders, reaches in his pocket, hands the lawyer �5 and goes back to sleep.
