He had a convertible with the top down or a sunroof/moonroof that was open? |

RULES FOR PLAYING THE MYSTERY RIDDLE GAME:
Don't look up the answer online (it takes all the fun out of the game) take a guess! Try to solve the mystery logically using deductions, obviously, the first guess won't be right and that's okay! On forums that offer this type of game, people make 10-30 guesses typically to solve a mystery. They use these right or wrong guesses to make better deductions.
To make it easier to solve the mystery riddle, rather than posting a spoiler:
1-If the guess is completely wrong I will tell you you are COLD
2-If the guess is close but not 100% correct I will tell you you are getting WARM
3-If you are spot on with the deductions but the answer is not complete, I will say you are HOT
4-When you get the entire mystery 100% correct I will post the answer in a SPOILER on the original riddle & post another Mystery Riddle

SEE RULES (ABOVE POST) The Sand Smuggler Mystery
Every day a man used to cross the border on a motorcycle with two bags of sand.
The border officers got a tip that the man is a smuggler.
They checked him and found that he only carried sand.
As they could not find any evidence, they allowed him to cross the border.
What was the man smuggling?
{Spoiler Answer}
He was smuggling motorcycles.

{Spoiler - How Peter Gets Out}Hmmm. Peter could dig up his floor & use the dirt he removes to build up a stairway/mountain of dirt that will let him climb up to the window...but it wont help him any unless he has already been starving and hence has become skinny enough that he can slip through the bars (which wouldnt work anyhow since the width of heads doesnt change any (since it is mainly the size of the skull, which doesnt shrink with starvation!)and bars are generally closer together than the width of an adult head. Poor Peter is really just a goner. Poor Peter! |

{Spoiler - Ooo, ooo - help for poor Peter }Ok, so if Peter is smart he can still get out. He builds the dirt up so he can reach the window. Then he sells his shovel to some guy passing by who will pay by bringing him enough food and water so that he has enough time to dig his tunnel w/o dying of malnutrition!! Lucky Peter! |

The original riddle doesn't say the window is barred, only that it is too high for Peter to reach. I would have said he dug up his floor to create a pile of dirt high enough to climb up to the window to get out. If he sells his shovel per lurkercat's later post, then he would no longer have a tool to use for digging a tunnel, so wouldn't be able to get out via tunneling because it is really hard to dig with your hands only and make a tunnel big enough. |

Peter would need to shovel up the dirt high enough that he could escape through the window |

 Wrong Way Truck Driver
A truck driver is going down a one way street the wrong way, and passes a policeman.
Why is he not caught?
{Spoiler Answer}
Because he was not driving, he was walking on the sidewalk. |

 Murder In a Cornfield Who-dun-it Mystery
After a heavy snowfall in Montana, a farmer discovered a body in his field and immediately called the police.
When the police arrived, the only clues remaining were two faint grooves and a size 11 hiking boot
imprint in the center.
Who should the police be looking for?
{Spoiler Answer}
Zeek & Barnaby were both guilty
The police were looking for a man in a wheelchair

{Spoiler}I think it's the farmer because the footprints are new and he tried to get away by putting on skis to hide any other evidence. |

pennmom,Well, golly, the answer to this was so obvious I figured I'd wait & let someone else guess it. But, since no one has, here - I'll give the obvious solution so we can get on to the next mystery!
{The Obvious Field Killer } Well, it's obvious they should be looking for Zeke. That consarn, durn fool idiot fell into the corn combine last summer & cut his right leg all the heck up. Bones poking out everywhere & the local sawbones screwed in a buncha metal rods, wiped up all the blood & encased his leg in cement from the top of his toes to the top of his hip. Now he just rides around the farm in that durn wheelchair of his, with his concrete leg sticking out forward, and helps pull himself along sometimes with his remaining left foot. We let him continue working here on the farm, 'cause in fact he was never much use anyhow & so isnt really any worse with that leg sticking out & not able to git near anything. One day when Zeke was napping in the barn, old Barnaby snuck in and painted a sexy nekkid female leg on Zeke's cast. Durn pretty it was & even had this sexy garter with a beautiful red rose on it. Well, Zeke woke up & were fit to be tied. Said Barnably's drawing made him look like a durn idiot. Barnaby said "Nope, you looked like an idiot way before I painted your leg!". Well, that didnt go over so well. That Zeke musta killed old Barnaby 'n carried him out to the field in his wheel chair & just rolled him off into the field. Then, when he went to wheel himself backwards out of the field, he couldnt get enough traction, so had to put his left foot down to push himself off. I'd recognize those wheelchair tracks anywhere!
And no, I dont have the slightest clue what the answer to the puzzle is, and yes, yes I do have a real vivid fantasy life, thanks for asking! |
