As the train left the station, the conman sized up the old prospector sitting opposite. When they got to talking, the conman proposed they play a game to pass the time. “What kind of game?” “General knowledge quiz, you look like a man of the world,” said the conman. “We each ask the other a question and if one can’t answer he pays the other a dollar.” The old geezer thought this over for a minute. “Yeah, I like a quiz but I don’t like the even money bit.” “What do you mean?” “Well, I’ve spent most of my life in the bush. I’m just a simple man whereas you look like a city slicker to me. So I suggest that if you can’t answer my questions then it costs you a dollar, but if I can’t answer yours, then you should let me off with fifty cents.” The conman was sure he was on a winner. “Okay, you pay fifty cents to my dollar.” “Then here’s the first question,” said the old geezer. “What’s got five legs and flies backwards?” “Don’t know,” said the conman slapping down a dollar. “My question now and I’m interested to know exactly what does have five legs and flies backwards?” “Blowed if I know. Here’s your fifty cents,” said the old man.
