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?

Ok, I have got another riddle:
What has a mouth, but cannot speak?
What has bends, but has no curves?
What has a beginning, but has no end?
What has an end, but no beginning?
What can kill? What can save?

I've got one more...
The more you take away, the more you have.
What is the thing from which stuff is taken away?

I would guess that the more you take away, and the more you have is the air we breath.

Lady Grey, you certainly know your riddles! OK, I just thought up another riddle...
Sherlock is resting peacefully in his two person tent, with assistant Dr.Watson. He dreams of his cheap canvas tent being stolen by a band of desperate thieves. He is awoken by Watson, who wishes for Sherlock to see the beautiful stars above their sleeping bags. Sherlock groaned. How did he know that his tent had been stolen?

They could see the stars.
For some reason I thought this was a joke, that surfaced in a joke thread....about a year ago in here. Am I wrong?
