“an apostate from the Christian faith and leader of the Scamari, was captured. They cut off his hands and feet on the Mole of St Thomas, brought in physicians, and dissected him from his pubic region to his chest while he was alive. This they did with a view to understanding the structure of man. In this condition they gave him over to the flames.”

Umm yeah, I'm still going to say that the Dark Ages were called that because of the culture at the time, thanks.

Likewise, the beans were the tip-off for me, Still, these whodunnits often rely on a single detail that could have many explanations. Who wouldn't use a pressure cooker if time was tight?

My girlfriend used to have thick red hair she usually wore in a braid past her butt, thick as my wrist. (I have thick wrists, too) She cut 24" off to donate to cancer patients, and lost about 10 lbs in minutes. A lot of her neck pain cleared up too.

*sigh* Bourbon is not pure alcohol, so it does freeze, but it has to be really damned cold. Since the writer was hammering the idea that it was really cold, I read that as another "it's really cold!" detail. If you're going to offer clues, try to get them right.

Jeez guys, you posted this same one a couple months ago, but it was kids playing baseball. Exact story otherwise, right down to the missing coins. If you're going to run a puzzle series, could you try not to repeat yourself so soon, and try to make them even slightly tricky?

No, what this die is designed to solve is the need for collectors to have another unique die in their Crown Royal bag. A friend of mine has every exotic die he can lay his hands on, and he might contrive a situation in the game where he can haul out an oddity and roll it just to watch us groan. His heavy machined bronze d6's leave dents in the table and get everyone's attention. I can see him flipping something like this just to make a point.

All the ivy I'm familiar with wouldn't let go without taking the brickwork with it. I've spent some long hours scraping ivy loose. Seeing vines peel off in a sheet like this would almost be an orgasmic experience.

Next year, someone should try to swap the fire retardant for volatile oil before it gets sprayed on the goat. It should self-ignite after a few hours exposure to oxygen.

I'm guessing this magpie was raised by the family from a fledgling, since it shows no hesitation to play with the humans either. Also, I've never seen a bird lie on it's side like that, legs in the air. That looks like a behavior it's learned from playing with the puppies. I wonder if it will learn any human speech?
Corvids are awesome.
