A lawyer is sitting on a plane...

...and he notices that there's a blonde woman sitting next to him, looking like she's about to fall asleep. He thinks quickly, *how do I make some money off of this dumb blonde?*

He suddenly has a great idea, and leans over, tapping her on the shoulder. She blinks at him. "Hm? What is it?"

He replies, "Hey... do you want to play a little game? Come on, it'll be fun!"

She turns her head back to the window and mumbles, "No thanks... I want to go back to sleep."

"No, no! I haven't even explained it to you!" the lawyer pouts (as best a middle-aged man can pout, anyway), looking at her pleadingly.

"Fine."

The woman rolls her head back over, and the lawyer explains the game. "So, here's how it works: I ask you a question, and if you get it wrong you give me ten dollars. Then, you ask me a question, and if I get it wrong, then I give you a hundred dollars! Then we keep going like that." Mentally, he's snickering, figuring that this blonde couldn't possibly ask him a question he couldn't answer.

"No thank you," the woman politely declines, and turns her head yet again.

"But- please, just try it!"

"*Fine,*" the woman bites out, looking a bit harried.

"Alright! I'll go first... what's the distance from the Moon to the Earth?"

The woman silently hands him a handful of toonies [dollar bills if you're American]. "My turn. What three-legged North American animal is purple at dawn, orange at dusk, and grey inbetween?"

The lawyer stares at her, horror growing, until finally he reluctantly peels a hundred dollar bill from his wallet. The woman nods wordlessly and promptly turns her head to fall asleep. The lawyer is increasingly agitated by the question, asking the attendants, the other passengers, even trying in vain to find the answer on his computer, but he turns up nothing. Finally, he's so frustrated that he grabs the woman's shoulder. She jerks awake with a start.

"Well? What's the damn answer?!" he snarls.

She looks at him for a minute, then hands him ten dollars.
