i will post a couple of Trivia questions. after at least four people guess, i will post the answers.

1. Using one set of letters in the same order, can you fill in the blanks and make a normal sentence?

A _o_a_l_ doctor had _o _a_l_ and therefore, was _o_ a_l_ to operate.

2. Jasmine squinted into the rising sun as the early morning light reflected off the freshly fallen snow. Jasmine headed due east following the snow shoes tracks of Chris Humming, the world famous photographer. Suddenly to Jasmine's horror, she came upon the dead body of Chris Humming. He had been shot and killed with an arrow that had entered his back, piercing his heart. Jasmine raced back to the chalet where her weekend companions were just sitting down to breakfast. All three women were shocked when Jasmine relayed the tragedy. Samantha kept muttering that she just couldn't believe it. Carrie said it seemed just moments ago Chris told her he was going out to photograph various birds in their early morning habit. Sarah, who was counting her arrows, turned ashen white when she noticed one missing. "one of you is the killer," said Jasmine. Who does she suspect and why?
The inspector gathered the 20 guests from the previous evening's dinner party in the drawing room. "I have gathered you together" he exclaimed, as he leaned on the mantlepiece filling his pipe, "because I believe the murderer is IN THIS ROOM!" (sound of Lady Penelope fainting). "who is it?" exclaimed Samantha. "I believe, he stated that it is... YOU!", as he pointed to Sarah. (Gasps from the crowd). "But what makes you think that?" asked Samantha .
"Well", he said, "Mr. Humming was walking due East away from the Chalet, and was shot in the back, therefore the arrow came from the direction of the Chalet. Jasmine stated that she followed Mr Huming's snowshoe tracks but made no mention of any other tracks being visible in the snow. Therefore", he continued smugly," the person who shot him did not follow him out but shot from the Chalet, and as Sarah is the most accomplished archer amongst us, I believe her to be the guilty party".

"But how will we know for sure?"asked Samantha?
"Well", answered the Inspector, "Judge CittyKat is arriving on the 4.55 from Chichester, and she will confirm or refute my suspicion."

1. A notable doctor had no table and therefore, was not able to operate.


2. Jasmine suspects Carrie. Chris Humming couldn't have told Carrie he was going out to photograph birds. If he had, he would not have headed east. With the sun rising in that direction, it would have been very difficult to see anything but the silhouettes of the birds, and of course impossible to photograph them.

Congrats to:

phd7 - You didn't solve the second, but you created a VERY good story.

Here are your new Trivia questions!!!!!

1. The maker doesn't want it, the buyer doesn't use it, and the user doesn't see it. What is it?

2. While on safari in the wild jungles of Africa, Professor Thorn woke one morning and felt something in the pocket of his shorts. It had a head and a tail, but no legs. when Thorn got up he could feel it move inside his pocket. Thorn, however, showed little concern and went about his morning rituals. Why such the casual attitude?

3. This is a most unusual paragraph. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think was wrong with it - and in fact nothing is wrong with it. It is unusual though. Why? Study it, think about it, and you may find out. Try to do it without coaching. If you work at it for a bit it will dawn onto you. So jump on it and try your skill at figuring it out. Good luck - and don't blow your cool!

1. The dead body of Raymond Callshna, the famous American romance novelist, lay slumped across his hotel room desk. His hand lay near an empty bottle of sleeping pills. A suicide note lay on the desk. "it's so strange," said the bellhop, "As i was Carrying Mr. Callshna's bags he was talking excitedly about being in England. As a matter of fact, he said this was the first time he had ever been out of the U.S., and he was planning to write his next novel with London as the setting." Jasmine looked at the note. It read: I have lost my will to live. My work has received all the honour it deserves. My writing was the centre of my life, but in retrospect, I suppose they're just trashy novels. As the colour fades from my eyes, I can only hope for a better life in the next world. "Based on this I'm sure Mr. Callshna was murdered," declared Jasmine. Why?

2. There is an ancient invention still used in some parts of the world today that allows people to see through walls. What is it?

3. How would you rearrange the letters in the words new door to make one word? Note: There is only one correct answer.

The first Question might be more suited for Mark and Phoebe.
