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?

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.

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?

This one is dumb, but I did a "oh yeah" when I read the answer.
As Sid Shady boarded his flight to Israel, he noticed an old acquantance a the back of the plane. He shouted a greeting to his friend by name, then knocked on the cockpit door to say hello to one of the pilots, who was also an old friend. Several moments Shady was arrested, why?
