Yes.

The town was hosting a gem dealers' convention, so at the hotel, alot of gem dealers stored their gems in the hotel safe. The wife never left the hotel, so while the police were following the famous crook around, she broke into the safe. That night, they leave with alot of gems.

Hint was too obvious, huh?

Bloopy's just too smart.

Yes.

I didn't see this one asked yet:

Two men are driving with their families on a road in opposite directions. Once they pass each other, both drivers end up in a hospital but the passengers remained unharmed, as did the cars.

I hope I didn't just miss it... good luck.

First question:
Did the drivers have their wife sitting next to them?

Did the drivers of the cars know each other?

The drivers fid have their wife sitting next to them.

The drivers did not know each other.

Were both drivers injured by members of their own family?


Did both drivers have their windows down?

If so, did the two drivers lean their heads out and bump into each other?

Or did they stick their arms out and bump those?

Or did one driver get annoyed by the other driver and decide to punch the other driver as they passed, injuring his hand in the process?

Oh come on, how do you do that?
There was a thick fog and the drivers tried to see better leaning their head through the window. As they passed..

It was an easy mystery! There's only a few possible scenarios which could fit the story.

Karl's perfect murder goes wrong when his best friend Louie gives police what they couldn't find on their own, the murder knife. WTF HAPPENED?!?!?

Did Karl deliberately give the knife to Louie?

Did Louie physically give the police the knife? Or did he give them information which led them to the knife?

Did Louie know that he gave the knife to police? Or was it hidden in something else he gave them (or led them to)?

Is Louie Karl's pet dog and if so, did Louie dig up the knife?

Bloopy. wtf. You must have cheated.


That is correct, but how'd you get it? I didn't say that the knife was buried.

Karl killed his wife, which was someone Louie didn't like. Karl wrapped the knife in some ShamWow! and buried it underground. Later on, Louie found the knife using his sense of smell and brought it to one of the searching officers. This was because Louie was the family dog, who loved to dig and fetch.

I thought I'd post the simplier one first but since Bloopy seems to be quite on fire, take this (with less details just in case):

A man is lying on sand in a desert. Some various stuff is lying all over the area with him. The man is dead.

What's the case?

It just came to me. Maybe because you said he was Karl's best friend, and they say a dog is man's best friend. I imagined a dog carrying the knife in its mouth. The buried idea is just the obvious option from there. Kinda like in the movies, such as Rear Window, where the dog wanting to dig in the garden makes the guy suspicious, or in Poltergeist where the pet goldfish has died and they bury it, and (I think) the family dog starts trying to dig it up again.



Are there any plants nearby?

Did he fall from a great height?

Did he drown in a flood?

Was he so thirsty that he hallucinated and thought he saw water, threw down his things and then killed himself by trying to drink sand?

Did he get trampled to death by a camel?

Did he fatally injure himself by rolling down a steep sand dune?

Did he get struck by lightning?

Was he carrying all of that various stuff lying around? Or did he have it in a vehicle? Or was a camel carrying it for him?

Is the man like Bloopy, on fire?
Was he testing a prototype Iron Man suit?

But with all seriousness, was the man alone in this incident?
Was he camping/travelling in the desert?
Could he have been poisoned?
