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?

they are both the first one is false the 2nd ones true............i think i havent slept much since i started playing

correct cfm!! William, nope.
Here is the answer:

Neither, it's a paradox. If the first is true, then the second must be false, which makes the first false… it doesn't work.

adam polaris posted this in new riddle thread:

"If a man stands next to a pole, but the pole is nowhere to be found. Where is the man standing?

(two answers) "

I moved it here since we already have a riddle thread.
