Every day I am going to try and post a lateral thinking puzzle for you people to work out.
Hooray! I love these!
1) The Man in the Bar
A man walks into a bar and asks the barman for a glass of water. The barman pulls out a gun and points it at the man. The man says 'Thank you' and walks out. Why?
because "I want a glass of water" is the code name for pointing guns at the barkeeper's guests and the man's hobby is try to make other people pointing at him? :dizzy
Because he doesn't want to get shot :guns
I know the answer, so I won't spoil it for others. You can PM me if you really want to know.
Because a man in a bar asking for a glass of water instead of alcohol is as suspicious as a potencial robber ?
Tee hee.
No, I said I wanted A shot, not to BE shot!Quote:

The friendly, strange and possibly sweaty (and now very thirsty) out-of-towner makes his happy way to the next town
The moral of the story?
dont do orienteering, kids! You could get thirsty!!
