A Canadian and an American are sitting next to eachother on an airplane. The American leans over and asks the Canadian if he wants to play a fun game. The Canadian just wanted to sleep so he politely declined, turned away and tried to sleep. The American persited and explained that it was a very easy game. He explained, " I aska question and if you don't know the answer you pay me $5. Then you ask me a question and if i don't know the answer, I'll pay you $5." Again the Canadian declines and tries to sleep.

The American, now somewhat agitated, says, "Okay. If you don't get the question right, you pay me $5, and if i dont get the question right , I'll pay you $50!" Now, that got the Canadians attention, so he agrees to the game. The America asks, "Whats te dfference from the earth to the moon?" The Canadian doesn't say a word and hands th American $5.

Now, it's the Canadians turn. He asks the American, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down on four?" The American looksat him with a puzzled look, takes outhis laptop computer, looks through all his references and after about an hour he wakes the Canadian and hands the Canadian the $50. The Canadian politely takes the $50 dollars, turns away, and tried to return to sleep. The American, a little miffed, asks, "Well what's the answer to the question?" Without a word, the Canadian reaches into his wallet, hands the American $5, then turns away and returns to sleep.
