Proud To be Emaraty

This is a Sumthing Id Like to Share with You guys :

 

An Emaraty and an American are seated next to each other on a

flight from New York.

The American asks if he would like to play a fun-game.

The Emaraty, 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 Emaraty 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 Emaraty'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 Emaraty 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 Emaraty asks, "What

goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?"

 

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 coworkers. All to no avail! Finally, a long time

later, he wakes the E maraty and hands him $500.

 

The Emaraty thanks him and turns back to get his sleep. The

American, more than a little miffed, stirs the Emaraty and asks,

"Well, what's the answer?"

Without a word, the Emaraty reaches into his wallet, hands the

American $5, and goes back to sleep!
