There was once a puppy deserted on a barren island. The puppy was hungry and dehydrated after being stranded for so long. However, just when the puppy was beginning to lose hope, the puppy saw two crates in the near distance. One crate was filled to the brim with turkey legs and chicken wings, and the other, filled to the brim with fresh purified water. The puppy, both hungry and dehydrated, couldn’t decide between the two crates. The puppy thought if it went to the water crate, it would be able to satisfy its thirst; however, it would still be hungry, and if it went to the food crate, it would be able to satisfy its hunger; however, it would still be thirsty. There must be some way to obtain both of the crates at the same time. There must be! So, it pondered and pondered. The puppy thought and thought, until it couldn’t think anymore as it fell to the ground from starvation and thirst.
