The Sunday Afternoon Puzzle!
You know the rules: No googling or other research. Grab a beer and solve the questions!
1. Suicide or murder? You must give at least valid reasons for your answer. [There is no completely accurate answer, but more than 90% of the experts think so.] 2. 3. Rearrange the letters of ‘WHIZ KID WON SELECT ART’ to give three Halloween characters. What are they? 4. Which of the following numbers is the odd one out? 459 314 268 527 145 638 5. A man was found dead with a cassette recorder in one hand and a gun in the other hand. When the police arrived, they immediate pressed the play button on the cassette recorder. They heard, "I can't go on. I have nothing to live for," then the sound of a gunshot. The police immediately knew it was not a suicide but a homicide. How did they know?

1 is a murder, cuz the gun is in the right hand, and facing the mirror, the bullet would go the other way.

Not likely she'd have shot herself while still smoking a cigarette, and the likelihood of the gun still being in her hand after shooting herself is zero. Body fails.

Time is up. Here are the answers:
1. Murder. A. The pen, ashtray, and canned drink are all on to the left, indicating that she is left-handed. But the gun is in her right hand. B. If she was facing her desk, as the fallen seat hints, the blood splatter is on the wrong side. C. The bullet casing is conveniently on the desk, as if someone placed it there. D. After dropping to the floor,the cigarette could not have remained in her hand, because the body goes limp at death. E. Where is the cigarette lighter or matches? 2. North. A repeating sequence of arrows pointing north, south, north, west, south and east runs along the top row and returns along the second row and so on. 3. Witch, wizard and skeleton. 4. 638. In all the other numbers the first two digits total the third digit. 5. If the man shot himself while he was recording, how did he rewind the cassette tape? Hoog wins with 2 points! |
