Nate: Here he comes. Teddy: Oh, no. Francis: Hi, guys! Nate: Hi, Francis. Francis: "Brain teaser" time! "Jeff has two apples. He cuts each one in half, then cuts each half in thirds... Nate: Hold it, hold it! I'll give YOU a brain teaser! Francis: Great! Nate: "Frank" is sitting at a table with three friends. He begings his annoying habit of reading brain teasers out loud. Let us assume that "Frank" loses twelve friends for each minute he spends reading brain teasers...how long until "Frank" is sitting at the table alone? Francis: Hmmm...okay, twelve per minute...three at the table...that's easy! Fifteen...seconds.
