Sean Hogan is an experienced lawyer and works in one of the
successful companies in Boston .
In addition to law Sean is a man with a solid general education, years of
reading sediment covering the full range of social categories. Once thought
very seriously to participate in one of trivia contests that were successful at
the time. But never did and the next step to send the application form. However
Sean remained a person with an open mind to new, interested in everything
related information "fresh".
One day he had to do a trip for work on the route Boston - Austin (Texas ), with a flight
line.
After boarding, unexpectedly, with him, sits a gorgeous
blonde with green eyes and olive skin. Girl wearing a casual outfit, probably
to feel as comfortable as possible during the flight, and from it emanates a
scent that seems to flood his lawyer all pores.
In the period after takeoff, after browsing the rigor of
newspapers and magazines provided by the airline,
Sean makes an attempt to
knock off a dialogue with the blonde, but notes with disappointment that girl's
ears were covered by a very small headphones hidden by long hair that trickled
over her bare shoulders. But right moment arose when the blonde took off the
headphones to ask a question of a flight attendant. After the short answer to
the question of stuardesei blonde, Sean addressed him directly:
- Would you like to spend time in a better way?
Blonde big eyes you have foretold the danger of unfavorable
interpretations of the proposal lawyer, so they feel compelled to continue.
- If we remain concerned about each of his gadgets or eyes
lost on the glass, the journey will start to become dull and will remain
ultimately a bad impression about these moments. As I suggest you clarify an
interactive game involving both. Do you accept?
- And about what it would be? the blonde asked in a voice
that was not the case only conviction.
- Look game is based on general knowledge of each of us, we
each other one question. If the other answer correctly receives from the
questioner a sum of money, modest course. If he does not respond properly paid
money.
Suddenly blonde face brightened a smile that let him see
beautiful teeth.
- Ah, so it's a money game, she asked more formal?
- It's so interesting, lawyer tried to justify!
- I do not know if my overall culture is serious enough that
I would hazard a race for money, especially with someone like you who seem
possessed man what he knows. I fear, in other words, do not take advantage of
me and somehow I get some cash lost.
- I understand, docile replied Sean! I am a lawyer by
profession and I have a solid general education, which helped the band both my
professional and my native qualities in the sense that I have a very good
photographic memory which helps me to immediately retain a text that covered my
eyes.
- I am aware that among us there is a gap large enough to
make you feel somewhat disadvantaged continues its advocacy lawyer.
- But to meet your desire and for the sake of finding a way
to spend our time more enjoyable, I make the following proposal: for each
question that you do not know the answer you pay me $ 5, and I will pay my turn
for each question that either do not respond or respond incorrectly, $ 500.
Does that seem fair?
- I think so! I agree with the two conditions!
- What, Sean asked, surprised that yet remained a matter
clarified?
- First, payment will be made after each response!
- OK. !
- And the second: one who does not know the answer as he
paid set, but if he want to find and correct answer pays double.
- I agree, recite ceremonial Sean, convinced that he could
not even be put in the situation not know the answer, much less to pay to find
out.
So Sean put the first question:
- What is the distance from Earth to the Moon?
- I do not know, the blonde replied shortly after thinking handed
him the $ 5!
Come time for the blonde to put the question:
- What goes up the mountain with three legs and comes down
with four?
Sean's jaw could hardly lift. In such a question even not
expected. What was meant as a blonde? If the
mention of feet, it's probably a
creature that can be smaller or larger. The area in which this creature lives
can be only in the mountainous, Sean thought. He took a short inventory of all
life and realized that three-legged creatures do not really exist, so it could
be a trap, blonde mind is probably some lame quadruped. But why go down into
four legs? So our lawyer's mind struggled for two hours trying to guess the
answer to the blonde. His ego could not accept such a defeat, the amount of
money you must pay it being neither disqualified.
Eventually he was forced to admit defeat and pay, thanking
him for accepting the challenge blonde. No longer considered necessary pay
another $ 500 to find the correct answer, so that the two return to their
initial concerns.
Despite his attempts to relax and to direct thoughts
elsewhere, mind it refuse to listen and come back to that question constantly,
like a mosquito that ringing in the ear in the dark just when you're about to
fall asleep .
After landing, he realized that he would not escape so
simple that sensation which is why she decided to offer blonde, even before
descending, still $ 500 to get the answer.
- Susan's my name, he replied smiling blonde while paper
handed him a $ 5!
HAVE A NICE DAY !
