The suspense is killing me.
I've stopped thinking about such things given that Google is so good these days:

I think the fact there were no replies at the time says it all - I can't even remember posting it
Jamie.
There's a vague possibility that this post may have pushed it up a bit.
Even though it was Google which found the answer, it was a good answer. Thanks.

I think 'vague' is understating it a bit
There's no way I'd be going through 4 year old threads. I have enough trouble keeping up with the daily ones these days.
So what's the answer?
Wish-ga, you are funny!
Answer: The person's home is a houseboat and he ran out of water while on an extended cruise.
Spiderman linked to the answer but you need to "highlight" it, as the answer is
same background color...there are a heap of other lateral thinking puzzle question things there too, designed to drive you to drink unless you realise you can highlight for the answers.
Drive you to drink; dying of thirst...it's ok I'll go home.

...I maybe a bit slow, but wouldn't you be able to fetch a little water over the side of the boat...you know, maybe drink out of your shoe ....like if you had no cups or chuppa chupps to dangle.
That's assuming your cruising on freshwater...they did say a houseboat, that's why I'm thinking freshwater...maybe I should email this lateral question poser to be a little more specific...ie salt water or freshwater...anyway if it's a houseboat it has cooking facilities, wouldn't you be able to get creative with flame? and also don't forget, there is always urine....you go first mate.

Not that you can drink it, but I thought order in or something...

I understand that as a camel hydration is your field of expertise
but do camels rave? Although doing nothing to replenish water in their body cuppa chupps stop ravers from "feeling" thirsty.... dry mouth side effect of some party drugs.... unfortunately dehydration still occurs and people pass out and worse....Whooo-hooo arms in the air forumites!
