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?

he had a heart attack during a bike race?

*knows this is so lameass that crunch will rip me to bits*

No, his death does not involve falling, nor did he have a heart attack during a bike race.

Crunch, PM me your answer and I'll let you know if you're actually right.

*rips biggie a new one but has a change of heart and plants sunflowers in it*

*sells the seeds on the black market to cheap parents of idiot chilren*

No race. No fall. Ask more about the bicycles.

Are the bicycles complete, ie not in pieces?
Have the bicycles fallen over?

Serges,

Sorry about ruining your riddle for everyone. I was half asleep when I read it and didn't realize you wanted people to be guessing on line.

To make up for it, here's one:

A man and woman were driving along a road. The man saw a sign and then shot the woman. Why?

This is also a lateral thinking puzzle and I will entertain "yes" and "no" questions. It is a tough one and if you want the answer, just PM me.

*magically waves moderator pole and un-ruins the bicycle thing*

Yay moderator pole!

Bill: YES, the bicycles are complete. NO they haven't fallen over.

Serges: Are they actually bicycles?

Barry: was the sign text? Was it graphic?

Sep-7-2006 11:58

Bill: the sign was not text nor was it graphic.
