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?

Shady arrested him because he only rubbed frost off one window. He must have known which room the body was in, which means he is the murderer.

cfmdec is right!!!!!
I am pretty sure I got the punch one right, at least points for creativity. :)

I am with reda on the frost one. Frost shows up on the inside.

Shadow surveyed the scene. Itzak Gusher, the famous oil tycoon, was found shot to death while sitting in his car. Shadow was puzzled by the fact he could not find a single trace of gunpowder anywhere inside the car. THis led Shadow to believe that Itzak has been murdered by someone outside of the car. The strange part is all the windows and doors were completely closed and locked. The only bullet holes found were on Itzak's body, since the car was not damaged, how did the assissin manage to kill him?

for jstkdn-it didnt say the car was locked from inside. so the killer could have killed him put him in the car and then lock it.

Sorry... Rutiger was human, he had his fair share of punch, and was healthy before the party.

Rutiger poisoned the punch before drinking it, but made sure he took the antidote earlier in the night.

Was the car a convertible?

Yes Majandra it is a convertible!!!!! Reda, there was no gunpowder in the car.

Bryola, you are just smarter then the rest of us. I don't know the answer.

Another:
The day before yesterday Scheming Suzie was nine years old. Next year she will be 12. How is this possible?

Poison sinks to the bottom? Rudiger did not stir the punch before drinking it.
