OK, Who dunnit?
A husband is murdered on a sunny Sunday afternoon.
The police questioned the wife and staff and got these alibis:
The Wife said she was sleeping.
The Cook was cooking breakfast.
The Gardener was picking vegetables.
The Maid was getting the mail.
The Butler was cleaning the closet.

Ha, wrong this time, she could get the mail from the mailbox on Sunday, if she forgot to get it the previous day, a simple explanation to fetch it on a Sunday. Look again.

You've put a twist on a riddle I've heard before.
It's the cook. He wouldn't be cooking breakfast in the afternoon.

You pour 2 jugs of water into a barrel together, 5 minutes later you realize one of them contained a poison so you hurry back and remove the poisoned water leaving one jugful of clean safe water in the barrel. How is this possible?

What have I got in my pocket?
(Yes, I know this isn't a real riddle but someone might get a kick out of it)

Agilemind: At first I was going to say that the jugs were not emptied but simply stored in the barrel but you used the word "pour" so I don't know. Anyway, I'm actually quite bad at figuring out riddles.

A cowboy rids into town on Friday. He stays two nights, then rides out of town on Friday. How?

I pour 2 jugs of water into a barrel together. I placed the 2 jugs into the barrel together to each other?, and poured the water into it? Then I removed the one?

Close but not quite. There is nothing in the barrel except the water.
Hint: think Temperature.

Okay, then one of the jugs had ice, the other liqued, so it can be seperated before the ice melts? (But then again, ice is not always water)

no, when you look at me, you can clearly see me inside the water itself, you can see the water touches me, make me part of the water. ( these were tips)

There is a common English word that is nine letters long. Each time you remove a letter from it, it still remains an English word - from nine letters right down to a single letter. What is the original word, and what are the words that it becomes after removing one letter at a time?
