A Funny Story

Hi my dear friends.

This story has been sent by  Akram T to my mail. It’s so funny. Let me copy it here.

And also thank you so much, Akram, in advance.

 

 

  A Sardar and an American are seated next to each other
on a flight from Los Angeles to New York. The American
asks if he would like to play a fun-game.

The Sardar, tired, just wants to take a nap, so he
politely declines and rolls over to the window to
catch a few winks.
The American persists and explains that the game is
easy and a lot of fun. 


He says, 'I ask you a question, and if you don't
know the answer, you pay me $5, and vice versa.'

Again, the Sardar declines and tries to get some
sleep.


The American, now worked up, says, 'Okay, if you don't
know the answer, you pay me $5, and if I don't know
the answer, I'll pay you $500.'


This gets the Sardar's attention and, figuring there
will be no end to this torment, agrees to the game.


The American asks the first question, 'What's the
distance from the earth to the moon?'


The Sardar doesn't say a word, reaches into his
wallet, pulls out a $5 bill and
hands it to the American.


'Okay,' says the American, 'Your turn.' 
So the Sardar asks, 'What goes up a hill with three
legs and comes down with four legs?'


The American thinks about it. No answer. 
Puzzled, he takes out his laptop computer and searches
all his references. No answer!
He taps into the air-phone with his modem and searches
the Internet and the Library of Congress. No answer.
Frustrated, he sends e-mails to all his friends and
co-workers.
Checks the input. All to no avail!
Finally, a long time later, he wakes the Sardar and
hands him $500.


The Sardar thanks him and turns back to get his sleep.
The American, more than a little miffed, stirs the
Sardar and asks,
'Well, what's the answer?'
W! Without a word, the Sardar reaches into his purse,
hands the American $5, and goes back to sleep!
