Hello all.
I'm fairly new to Sleuth and I thought I might share a little hobby of mine with you all. Here's something for that sad moment when the mysteries of the day are all done.

Thousands lay up gold within this house,
but no man made it.
Spears past counting guard this house,
but no man wards it.
What is it?

Very good : o ) Points for Sunny and Iggy. Both sides are perfect anagrams of each other and yes, there are thirteen letters which equals the answer.

The rich have too little.

It is more great than God.

"A farmer and his hired help were carrying grain to the barn. The farmer carried one sack of grain and the hired help carried two sacks. Who carried the heavier load and why?"

The farmer- he's carrying a sack full of grain while the farmhand is just carrying two empty sacks.
