A man was driving to work and turned on the radio. He instantly pulled to the side of the road and killed himself. Why?

He followed LHUCK's betting advice?

Like a skywriter working in a thunderstorm?

That's far more likely than someone taking betting advice from LHUCKS.

This question is compound and uses a negative construction that makes answering it with a "yes" or "no" confusing. I'll rephrase:Was his suicide the result of what he heard on the radio? Yes.Was his suicide the result of something he saw? No.

Did he hear a voice on the radio?

I don't get it.

He lived on a high floor and was too short to touch the button for his floor. But when he had an umbrella, he used that to push the button.

And we all you know you can't carry an umbrella (or a cane or some other device) around on sunny days.
