The Brain Puzzle Topic

Post by Triert »

Share some brain puzzles you found or even made up if you have one.
One snowy night, Sherlock Holmes was in his house sitting by a fire. All of a sudden a snowball came crashing through his window, breaking it.
Holmes got up and looked out the window just in time to see three neighborhood kids who were brothers run around a corner. Their names were John Crimson, Mark Crimson and Paul Crimson.
The next day Holmes got a note on his door that read "? Crimson. He broke your window."
Which of the three Crimson brothers should Sherlock Holmes question about the incident?

That's obviously a trick question, since Sherlock Holmes lives in London, and London typically gets slush, not snow. If it was ever cold enough to have snow in London, it would be too cold for the Crimson brothers to be causing trouble outside. Since the Crimson brothers are, in fact, outside, it's highly unlikely that there is any snow at all. So the culprit would have to be someone capable of creating the snow.

Dammit, my screen reader doesn't read punctuation aloud, other wise it would've been obvious.

the note reads "Question Mark Crimson..."

Though, could a snowball really break a Window? Was glass really that much more fragile in Sir Author Conan Doyle's day?
