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?

Maybe it was too hard. No one could have known what Mrs Shady was dreaming if she died in her sleep, or right after immediately. :)
At request of Fonzie, another one....
What occurs once in every minute, twice in every moment, yet never in a thousand years?

And...
You throw away the outside, and cook the inside. Then you eat the outside and throw away the inside. What did you eat?

The three of you are ALL right!!!!!
This one is easy.
Charilie Chromedome went for a walk without an umbrella. He did not wear a hat and he did not take refuge under a shelter, yet not one hair on his head got wet. How was this possible?

It wasn't raining CORRECT!!!! I suppose bald would have been a good answer too.
Here we go:
Shadow had parked his car under a tree and was heading toward the suspect's house when a vicious dog lunged at him. Luckily for Shadow he was just beyond the dogs reach. Since the suspect wasn't home, Shadow decided to leave, but he had a slight problem. The, straining at the end of his chain, was following Shadows every move. With the chain attached to the tree, the dog had access to both car doors. How could Shadow get in to his car without the dog being able to reach him?
