Asking The Right Questions #2 - Alexander SkyHeart

TO OPEN UP MINDS, ASK THE RIGHT QUESTION


Dear Readers,

“How do you put a car into a fridge?” Eric asked.
“The one who gets the correct answer wins a thousand bucks.”
The crowd goes wild and answer after answer they came, “Smash the car into pieces…is it a toy car...vaporize it …” and answer after answer was wrong.

Then up came eight year old Amy and when she whispered the answer to Eric’s year, his face lit up a smile and announced to the crowd. “Amy won the thousand bucks, let’s give her a round of applause!”

The crowd of mainly adults and teenagers clapped reluctantly. Some thought, “She must have cheated.” Others had other nasty comments. Few could accept they lost to an eight year old. They were hungry and desperate to know what answer Amy told Eric. The crowd eyed her as she walked down the stage.

When Amy came down the stage, group by group they went up to ask her what answer she gave. Group by group laughed and accepted her victory. “Well done.” What answer did she give? “Open the fridge door and put the car in.”
