See if there is interest for this.

1. Each day I will post 10 questions, at random times of the day.
2. Each Quiz runs exactly 24 hours.
3. The first person that has all 10 questions right, wins. Or if no one has all questions right, the best one wins.
4. You can only post answers ONCE for the same quiz.
5. No cash involved. Just glory. :)

Oki, I'm going for it, hope it's okay with you Emerald :)

Summer time is murder mystery time so inspired by D_AZN_Z's riddle the other day, I thought we could warm up with these - they're are usually meant to be played in "20 questions to the professor"-style where the "professor" can only answer “yes” or “no”, but you're all detectives so surely you can figure out what happened on your own ;)


Murder(?) Most Foul
1) A man that lives in a special house turns out the light and goes to sleep one night. The next morning while reading the newspaper he is shocked to find out that tons of people died that night because of him. How did the people die?
2) A dead woman is found lying on the ground with a backpack; there are no footprints around for miles.
3) A man is found shot to death in the front seat of his car. A gun lies out of his reach in the back seat. All the windows are closed and the doors are locked; there are no bullet holes anywhere in the car.
4) A woman came home with a bag of groceries, got the mail, and walked into the house. On the way to the kitchen, she went through the living room and looked at her husband, who had blown his brains out. She then continued to the kitchen, put away the groceries, and made dinner.
5) A married couple goes to a movie. During the movie the husband strangles the wife. He is able to get her body home without attracting attention.
6) A man is in a shack in the middle of the desert. He commited suicidie by hanging himself and was found hanging on the tall rafters. There was a large truck beneath him but not tall enough so he could reach the rafters. How did the man reach the rafters?
7) Romeo and Juliet have been found dead in a pool of water, naked, in an empty room, the door is locked and the window is open. So what happened?
8) A man is born in 1972 and dies in 1952 at the age of 25.

Ahh, too long - sorry about that.

...
9) A man is found dead in a phonebooth. Next to him is a packet, a stick, and the phone is off the hook. There are also two holes in the booth.
10) A man sitting on a park bench reads a newspaper article headlined "Death at Sea" and knows a murder has been committed.


Okay detectives, detect ;)

4. I've heard this one. Husband is dead. Ashes in an urn on mantelpiece.

lol oh man there's more... oops... :s and i thought i did well til i read theose two...

9. nope. got me.
10. This is kind of (not at all) similar to something I've heard before. So I'm trying to mentally adjust it. >>> If the man is a fisherman and the stick is his rod and the packet has a fish, then he's talking to his wife? telling her how big the fish is and he sticks his hands out to say "this big" puts them through the glass in the phone booth and slashes his wrists. (now that's a stretch!!!)
