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?

If the two horsemen didn't know each other, they could be put in a race with a number of other people as well. Then they wouldn't know how to tell with whom they were competing, and in the end, the other results could be disregarded and whoever came in second out of those two would still be the winner.

No winners yet for the horemen question. Stop letting your imagination go wild, the answer is really simple.

Okay, but I get points for creativity! How about they have two tracks and time them separately?

each one rode the other's horse, because it's the horse that comes in second, not the rider

And then out of no where Balash comes.....and has the riddle right!!!!!!

But Moonshh gets points for creativity (but only because I am afraid she will delete this thread.)

This one is easy, no creativity required:
Mr. and Mrs. Plum have 6 daughters and each daughter has one brother. How many people are in the Plum family?

Not including the father and mother, 7.

Including the father and mother, 9.

(*tries to think of something creative*)

(*can't*)


We all need to watch out. Moonshh is DYING to use those powers of hers.

Jojo has the answer correct!!!! YAY!

Captain Frank and Professer Quantum played chess. They played 7 games, each won the same number of games, and there weren't any draws or stalemates. How could this have happened?
