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?

She was poisoned. And when you took a drink from the glass, she dropped it, the glass broke, and she then fell into the puddle of water...

Nop. But creative. :)
Can you drink that much water, even when drowning? :)

Okay...Sandy is a fish and her fishbowl was broken, causing her to suffocate.(My fiance gave me this idea). Though, I do like the idea of dying from drinking too much water.

Two shepherds are talking. The first says to the other, "Give me one of your sheep and I'll have 3 times as many as you." The second one replied with "No, you give one of yours and we'll have the same number." How many sheep did each shepherd have?
