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?

Or would it have been because, if Mel had truly made the tape, his head hitting the keys would have turned the recorder off? Either way, it's that off click.

Nice joke jstkdn, but nope.

Here's another one:
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?

Majandra was almost right. Shadow hit play, and heard the message. He did not rewind the tape. If he heard the click of the tape recording shutting off, by the victims head hitting the recorder....then someone must have rewound the tape.

Sid Shady asked his wife to accompany him to a war movie being featured that night. During a scene when grenades were exploding and guns were firing. Shady decided the time was right: he pulled out a gun and shot his wife. He then took her out of the theatre without anyone trying to stop him. Why not?

2 The gun was empty
