The guy orders a pigeon and then kills himself because one day when he was little, he said to him self, "I'll eat a pigeon before I kill myself". However he never new that the future held every relative and close friend to die in a horrible nuclear blast. He couldn't live with it any longer. So true to his word. He eat a pigeon. Then killed himself.

Uh, obviously because I'd heard the blighter before, and you're right, it's a terrible riddle. It's supposed to be one of those riddles that you're allowed to ask yes/no questions about until you figure it out, or something. It was originally an albatross, because seriously how is one tiny pigeon-sized hunk of meat from one's wife going to land up somewhere on an island all by itself, seriously...

EDIT Reach, is there a unique solution to your problem #8?
