Who Wants to Be a Millionaire

The Millionaire

Marty, a contestant on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" had reached the final plateau. If he answered the next question correctly, he would win $1,000,000. And, as he suspected it would be, the 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? Is it:

   A) The condor;
   B) the buzzard;
   C) the cuckoo; or
   D) the vulture?"

He was on the spot. He did not know the answer. All that remained was his Phone-a-Friend Lifeline, and he hoped against hope that he would not have to use it. Mainly because the only friend that he knew would be home happened to be his girlfriend, a blonde. But he had no alternative -- he called her and gave her the question and the four choices. The blonde responded unhesitatingly:

"That's easy! The answer is C: The cuckoo."

Marty had to make a decision and make it fast. He considered employing a reverse strategy and giving Regis any answer except the one that his friend had given. And, considering that his friend was a blonde, that would seem to be the logical thing to do. On the other hand, that he could not help but be persuaded.

"I need an answer," said Regis.

Crossing his fingers and drawing in his breath, Marty said:

"C: The cuckoo."

"Is that your final answer?" asked Regis.

Yes, that is my final answer."

Two minutes later, Regis said,

"I regret to inform you that that answer is absolutely correct. You are now a millionaire!"

Three days later, Marty hosted a party for his family and friends including the blonde who had helped him win the million dollars. He said,

"Jenny, I just don't know how to thank you.

Because of your knowing the answer to that final question, I am now a millionaire. And do you want to know something? It was the assuredness with which you answered the question that persuaded me to go with your choice. By the way ... how did you happen to know the right answer?"

"Oh, come on," said the blonde, "everybody knows that cuckoos don't build nests ... they live in clocks."
