A proud and confident shyster makes a bet with a visitor from the country. The genius says, “Hey farmer, every question I ask you that you don’t know the answer, you have to give me $5. And if you ask me a question and I can’t answer yours I will give you $5,000.”

The farmer says, “Okay.”

The genius then asks, “How many continents are there in the world?” The farmer doesn’t know and hands over the $5.

The farmer says, “Now I ask you: what animal stands with two legs but sleeps with three?”

The genius thinks and tries very hard for the answer but gives up and hands over the $5000. He says, “Dang it, I lost. By the way, what was the answer to your question?”

The farmer hands over $5.
