A Journalist and a Programmer

A journalist and a programmer are sitting next to each other on a long flight. The journalist leans over to the programmer and asks if he would like to play a fun game. The programmer just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.

The journalist persists and explains that the game is really easy and a lot of fun. He explains, “I ask you a question. If you don’t know the answer, you pay me £5. Then, you ask me a question. If I don’t know the answer, I’ll pay you £5.”

Again, the programmer politely declines and tries to get to sleep. The journalist by now somewhat agitated, says, “OK, if you don’t know the answer you pay me £5 and if I don’t know the answer, I’ll pay you £50!”

This catches the programmer’s attention and he sees no end to this torment unless he plays, so he agrees to the game. The journalist asks the first question, “What’s the distance from the earth to the moon?”

The programmer doesn’t say a word, but reaches into his wallet, pulls out a £5 bill and hands it to the journalist. Now, it’s the programmer’s turn. He asks the journalist, “What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?”

The journalist looks at him, puzzled. He takes out his laptop computer and searches all of his references. He taps into the air phone with his modem and searches the net and the Library of Congress. Frustrated, he sends email to all of his colleagues — all to no avail.

After about an hour, he wakes the programmer and hands him £50. The programmer politely takes the £50 and turns away, to try to get back to sleep.

The journalist, more than a little miffed, shakes the engineer and asks, “Well, so what’s the answer?”

Without a word, the programmer reaches into his wallet, hands the journalist £5 and turns away, to get back to sleep.
