A blonde was sitting in an airplane and a lawyer was sitting next to her. Seeing that she was a blonde, the lawyer decided to take advantage.
He tapped her shoulder and said, "This is going to be a long flight. You want to play a game?"
She shook her head and turned to get some sleep.
But the lawyer was persistent. "Are you sure you don't want to play?"
She turned and shrugged. Why not?
The lawyer explained. "Okay, this is how the game goes. I ask you a question and if you can't answer it, you pay me ten dollars. And then you ask me a question and if I can't answer it, I pay you ten dollars."
The blonde shook her head again and decided to try to sleep.
The lawyer became frustrated. "Alright, if you ask me a question I can't answer, I'll pay you $100 and you only have to pay me ten!"
The blonde quickly turned around. Now this was sounding good. "Alright," she said. "You start."
The lawyer smiled and asked, "Who was the 17th president?" She shrugged and handed the lawyer ten dollars. Now it was the blonde's turn.
She asked him, "What has seven legs, sheds every two months, has purple and white stripes, hunts hummingbirds, and commonly lives in Australia?"
The lawyer was confused. He thought and thought for ten minutes, but couldn't come up with an answer. He got out his laptop and searched all over the internet.
He got out his satellite phone and called all his friends and family, but he could not find the answer.
He decided to give up. "Alright, I don't know the answer." He dejectedly handed her a $100 bill."
She smiled and went back to sleep. Angrily, he shook her awake.
"Well?" He asked. "What was the answer?!" She smiled and handed him ten dollars.
