Bill and Ted each ordered a double scotch. Bill bet Ted $1 that he could put a normal bowl over Ted’s scotch and then drink it without touching, directly or indirectly, the bowl, the scotch glass, or the bar. And, Bill added “I will not have anyone or anything assist me in any way.” Is this a good bet for Ted to take and why?
Answer
Ted should not take the bet. Bill will pick up the bowl, drink the double scotch (which cost Ted about $10), and pay Ted $1 for losing the bet.
