A lawyer and an old trucker are sitting next to each other at a very crowded TA during an Iowa whiteout.

The lawyer is thinking that truckers are so dumb that he could get one over on them easy.

So the lawyer asks if the trucker would like to play a fun game.

The trucker is tired and just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and tries to catch a few winks.

The lawyer persists, saying 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. Then you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500, he says.

This catches the trucker's 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 trucker doesn't say a word, but reaches into his pocket, pulls out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer.

Now it's the trucker's turn. He asks the lawyer, 'What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?'The lawyer uses his laptop and searches all the references he could find on the Net. He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows; all to no avail. After an hour of searching, he finally gives up.

He wakes the trucker and hands him $500. The trucker pockets the $500 and goes right back to sleep. The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes the trucker up and asks, 'Well, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?'


The trucker reaches into his pocket, hands the lawyer $5 and goes back to sleep.
