Remember NO googling or searching the internet allowed and good luck!!!!!!

There are these two twin old men that go into the same bar everyday. The bartender at the bar hates one of the twins, but the only way he could tell the difference between the one he hates and the one he likes is because the one that he hates drinks very slow, but the one that he likes drinks fast. So one day the bartender decides to kill the one that he hates. So when they came in that day he put the same amount of the drink in their cups, the same amount of ice, and the same amount of poison. When they are both done with their drinks the one that the bartender hates dies, but the one he likes lives. How is this??

    I'd go with that answer too. See what it takes to get a lurker to come out? Welcome to the board!

    Is it?
    Some kind of slow release poison that only works when taken slowly?

    riddle
    if it is in the ice and you drink quickly the cubes don't melt and release the poison, drink slow, the cubes melt releasing the poison. I figured this because I am not an ice lover so I always let it melt and hubby always has his ice left in the glass.
