MONDAY MIND GAME

A wise man is lost in the desert with no water. He encounters a wise guy who is drinking from a jug. Seeing the wise man approach, the wise guy corks the jug. “May I have some of your water, please?” the wise man asks. “I am dying of thirst.”

The wise guy replies, 

“Yes, but only if you agree to three conditions: 

     1) You mustn't remove the cork from the jug; 
     2) You mustn't break up the cork or make a hole in it; and 
     3) You must not damage the jug or make a hole in it.” 

The wise man agrees.

How does he do it?

As the wise guy was drinking from the jug, the wise man knows it isn’t full. So he just pushes the cork down into the jug.
