The lawyer is thinking seniors are not so smart and that he could get one over on them easily. 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.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>T<strong>he lawyer persists, saying that the game is a lot of fun\u2026.\u201dI ask you a question, and if you don\u2019t know the answer, you pay me only $5. Then you ask me one, and if I don\u2019t know the answer, I will pay you $500,\u201d he says. This catches the senior\u2019s attention and, to keep the lawyer quiet, he agrees to play the game. The lawyer asks the first question. \u201cWhat\u2019s the distance from the Earth to the Moon?\u201d The senior doesn\u2019t say a word, but reaches into his pocket, pulls out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer.Now, it\u2019s the senior\u2019s turn. He asks the lawyer, \u201cWhat goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?\u201d The lawyer uses his laptop to search all references he can find. He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows, but 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, \u201cWell, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?\u201dThe senior reaches into his pocket, hands the lawyer $5, and goes back to sleep.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lawyer and a senior citizen are on a plane\u2026 A lawyer and a senior citizen are sitting next to each other on a long flight.
