    If he didn´t was thirsty, I can only come up with one idea why he wanted water. He had hiccups(as I have now lol). The bartender noticed this so he took up the gun to scare the man(which will remove the hiccups) So the hiccups disepeared,that's why the man said thank you,because he got rid of the hiccups? Am I right? If not,this could be the "second answer" because it all make sense ;)

    I have one.

    A man is driving along a road, listening to the radio. After 5 minutes, he pulls over and shoots himself. Why?

  • -Timo--Timo- Member Posts: 2,313

    did he kill himself because he heard something on the radio?

    was he depressed?

    was he alone?

    did he plan to do it when he stepped in the car?

    What he heard on the radio - was it as simple as 'this person has been killed'? Or did he hear some other piece of information that told him his wife is dead?

  • TosanuTosanu Member, PRO Posts: 388
  • AdrenalineAdrenaline Member Posts: 523

    It was an either-or question :neutral_face:
    I'll take that as a "no and no"

  • TosanuTosanu Member, PRO Posts: 388

    And you would be correct. Though I admit im confused about the second question, since it doesn't seem like something he would need to find out from what youve all determined so far.

  • AdrenalineAdrenaline Member Posts: 523

    Maybe I'm over-thinking it

  • KillerPenguinStudiosKillerPenguinStudios Member Posts: 1,291

    Did he have an alibi?

  • TosanuTosanu Member, PRO Posts: 388

    @KillerPenguinStudios‌ Yes he had an alibi.

  • SocksSocks London, UK.Member Posts: 12,822

    Did he know the albatross from the previous story ?

  • TosanuTosanu Member, PRO Posts: 388

    @Socks‌ Beyond irrelevant. Come on, lets have some more real guesses! i didnt get you all to stall out, did i?

  • AdrenalineAdrenaline Member Posts: 523

    Was he reminded of his wife's death by the radio?

    Was he listening for something specific on the radio?

    Was he driving somewhere important?

    Did he intentionally kill his wife?

    I was just trying to establish exactly what is going on here, who knew who and what motivations were at play, what role the albatross played in this man's downfall . . . . and so on . . . . the fact that you've tried to swerve the question and simply brush off the relationship between this man and the albatross from the previous story as "irrelevant" just makes me think there is more to this that meets the eye . . . . .

    I have no clue what that sentence means ? Must be a colloquialism ?
