''Two old friends meet up in a restaurant over drinks of cold iced tea. The waiter delivers two teas, and the friends start drinking. The first friend is very thirsty and drinks his tea quickly. The second friend is there more to chat, and drinks his tea very slowly, enjoying the conversation. The second friend finishes their drink, then suddenly drops to the floor, dead. Both drinks were exactly the same in every way - how did the second person die when the first did not?'' |

|'''Answer:''' The ice in the drinks was poisoned. The second person drank their iced tea so slowly that the ice inside it melted, releasing the poison which killed him. The first person drank it so quickly that the ice had no chance to melt, and he was fine. |

BioWelcome to my user page! My real name is Patrick; I am a college student living in Wisconsin (United States), and have been a Sims fan since I first played in 2000. I also play SimCity and other computer simulation games. I am a huge fan of Sonic the Hedgehog, and still own a Sega Genesis with most of the original Sonic games. I am also a fan of Golden Sun, a video game series originally released on Nintendo's GameBoy Advance, and I've made a couple edits to the Golden Sun Universe Wiki. Aside from video games, I am interested in meteorology and cartography. I am also interested in human geography; how people have moved and changed over the centuries, where nations have formed and have collapsed, and how culture has originated and spread over the globe. In short, I'm a geography nerd. I am an editor and Administrator here on The Sims Wiki, and I'm here to edit as well as to help editors and to maintain order. If you need or want to talk to me, please use my talk page. I may also be on the IRC Channel for live chat if I'm currently online. Alternatively, if you feel your message requires more privacy, you can send me an e-mail, but please tell me on my talk page if you send me an email, otherwise I may not receive your message right away. I am also an Administrator on the RollerCoaster Tycoon Wiki, a relatively small Wiki for the RollerCoaster Tycoon game series. Current Projects and/or Ideas

Riddles/PuzzlesNot Quite a Riddle - This has been floating around for a while, but hopefully you haven't heard it or read it yet - It's one of my favorites. Two old friends meet up in a restaurant over drinks of cold iced tea. The waiter delivers two teas, and the friends start drinking. The first friend is very thirsty and drinks his tea quickly. The second friend is there more to chat, and drinks his tea very slowly, enjoying the conversation. The second friend finishes their drink, then suddenly drops to the floor, dead. Both drinks were exactly the same in every way - how did the second person die when the first did not?
