arty-rc 719 Posted August 18, 2016 A contestant on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?" had reached the final plateau. If she answered the next question correctly, she would win $1,000,000. And as she suspected it would be, the one million dollar question was no pushover. It was: "Which of the following species of birds does not build its own nest, but instead lays its eggs in the nests of other birds? A) the condor the buzzard C) the cuckoo or D) the vulture?" The woman was on the spot. She did not know the answer. She called her blonde friend and gave her the question and the four choices. The blonde responded unhesitatingly: "That's easy. The answer is the cuckoo." The blonde friend had responded with such confidence, such certitude, that the contestant went with it. "I need an answer," said Regis Crossing her fingers. The contestant said, "C: The cuckoo." "Is that your final answer?" asked Regis. "Yes, that is my final answer." Seconds later, Regis said, "That answer is ... absolutely correct. You are now a millionaire!" Three days later, the contestant hosted a party for her family and friends, including the blonde friend who had helped her win the million dollars. "Jenny, I just do not know how to thank you," said the contestant. "Because of your knowing the answer to that final question, I am now a millionaire. How did you happen to know the right answer?" "Oh, come on," her blonde friend said. "Everybody knows that cuckoos don't build nests. They live in clocks." 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
