A blonde named Gail is appearing on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" with Regis Philbin.
Regis: "Gail, you're up to $500,000 with one lifeline left: phone a friend. If you get it right, the next question is worth one million dollars If you get it wrong, you drop back to $32,000. Are you ready?"
Gail: "Yes." Regis: "Which of the following birds does not build its own nest?
Is It:A) robin, B) sparrow, C) cuckoo, or D) thrush".
Gail: "I'd like to phone a friend. I'd like to call Anne."
Anne (also a blonde) answers the phone: "Hello?"
Regis: "Hello Anne, it's Regis Philbin from Who Wants to be a Millionaire. I have your friend Gail here who needs your help to answer the one million dollar question. The next voice you hear will be Gail..."
Gail: "Anne, which of the following birds does not build it's own nest? Is it: A) robin, B) sparrow, C) cuckoo, or D) thrush." Anne: "Good grief, Gail, that's simple. It's a cuckoo."
Gail: "Are you sure?" Anne: "I'm sure."
Regis: "Gail, you heard Anne. Do you keep the $500,000 or play for the million?"
Gail: "I want to play; I'll go with C) cuckoo." Regis: "Is that your final answer?" Gail: "Yes." Regis: "Are you confident?" Gail: "Yes; I think Anne's pretty smart." Regis: "You said C) cuckoo, and you're right! Congratulations, you have just won one million dollars!"
To celebrate, Gail flies Anne to New York. That night they go out on the town. As they're sipping champagne, Gail looks at Anne and asks her, "Tell me, how did you know that it was the cuckoo that does not build its own nest?" Anne answers, "That's easy, everybody knows they live in clocks."
