I  looked it up and I was wrong.  But since I cheated, I am not going to tell.

He was too short to reach the elevator button for his floor. If there were other people on, they could do it for him, or he could use his umbrella to push the button on rainy days. HA!

Correctomundo, Diane.  Go to your local Dunkin Donuts and pickup a dozen free donuts for getting the right answer.  Tell 'em, "Larryj sent you."

A man is found murdered in his bathroom naked with blood scattered all around him. The bathroom was locked from inside and there is no trace of any struggle. There is nothing in the bathroom except his pant with the belt still around and his shirt. Also, the medic team can't find any incision in his body that may have been the reason behind so much of blood loss.

The Police department is clueless regarding this murder mystery. But Sherlock Holmes solved the case.

Can you ?

And try this old classic puzzle that's been around for many years:

"If we roll two dices (six sided normal dice) together.  What is the probability that the first one comes up with a 2 and the second one comes up with a 5?"

No.

But this sounds a lot like how Albert Dekker died, chuckle.

ALBERT DEKKER
Born: December 20, 1905
Died: May 5, 1968

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then photos of the dead body of Albert Dekker could fill volumes. And they have.

Perhaps there is no more puzzling sexually-tinged death in the annals of Hollywood history. On May 5, 1968, the actor (best-known for his role as Dr. Cyclops) and politician (he won a seat in the California State Assembly in 1944) was found dead in his Hollywood home by his fiancée Geraldine Saunders.

But he was not just dead-he was naked, kneeling in the bathtub, a noose tightly wrapped around his neck and looped around the shower's curtain rod, handcuffs on his wrists and a blindfold covering his eyes, a ball gag in his mouth. Two hypodermic needles were inserted in his arm. His body was covered in explicit words written in red lipstick. A woman's vagina was drawn on his stomach, and his nipples had been turned into miniature sun rays. His body was starting to turn purple.

What to think?

Some thought the six-foot-three, 240-pound Dekker was gay and was accidentally killed by a male hustler. The coroner's take? Dekker had engaged in autoerotic asphyxiation-the act of self-hanging while masturbating-and accidentally killed himself. The cause of death was officially listed as "accidental."

Al's sex-charged ashes reside in the Garden State Crematory in North Bergen, New Jersey.
