Here's a new game idea. The prize paid to the first person to guess the answer correctly is a gift from the questioner. If you are the winner... you must Pay It Forward and ask the next question (and purchase the next winner their gift) and so on.

There is no limit to the question asked. It can be a riddle, name that tune, guess the picture, guess the breed, sky's the limit.

I'll go first.

A man was found murdered on Sunday morning. His wife immediately called the police. The police questioned the wife and staff and got these alibis:
The Wife said she was sleeping.
The Cook was cooking breakfast.
The Gardener was picking vegetables.
The Maid was getting the mail.
The Butler was cleaning the closet.

The police instantly arrested the murdered. Who did it and how did they know?


try not to google the answer... but remember, if you answer correctly, you not only win a gift, but have to come up with the next question.

Name an English word of more than 2 letters that both begins and ends with the letters "he" in that order. There are two possible answers. "hehe" is not acceptable.

My riddle -

I have two arms, but fingers none.
I have two feet, but cannot run.

My first thought was clock... but what can a clock carry? Then I thought about a cart... but it has four 'feet' and doesnt work with it's feet off the ground... hmmm....

I'll be logging out but will come back to check answers later. In the meantime maybe someone else can post another question?

Ok, all I had to do was wait 'til my daughters got home... Is that cheating???

They said it's a wheelbarrow!
