The first one's easy. It's yourself. Hate to admit it, but I don't get the second one, not right off anyway.

Yes, I was thinking of some sort of 'fork' because of the 'tines.' But 'before report' bamboozles me.

Very Happy Laughing Razz

Now see if you can get this one. Craven is the only one that I know who got it right off. (smart youngun)

Eve is lying dead on the floor. Adam is sitting in the chair. The only clues you need are this:

broken glass and a puddle of water. Your mission, Andrew? Who killed Eve and how did she die?Take nothing for granted...nothing. Laughing Razz I can answer yes or no.

Yikes, Andrew. I am so sorry. I got so carried away last night that you had hit on the solution, that I gave you a wrong answer, and in red already. Smile

First, Adam is NOT a man and Second, Eve is NOT a woman Embarrassed
