1. The answer MUST be on the paper shown to the group
2. What does it show?
3. To a craps player what does it mean?
4. Put the two together.

I write a lot of things even in so short a mystery to throw dust into the readers eyes. Magicans call it "misdirection". The answer was right there all along. If you liked my little mystery, I have quite a few more... :nod: :lol: :D :)
Well that's my answer Sammy Keyes and the Search for Snake-Eyes, Also realized that this is a search... a search for a guy who rolls "Snake-eyes"(I assume)...Quote:

2) A kid lives inside a building with no flight of stairs
The kid goes inside the only elevator(Strange I know)
Looks at the buttons strangely and starts to ponder about something
either way he goes to the first floor
He goes outside buys some groceries
and when he returns he gets inside the elevator and presses button #14
The elevator goes up 1 floor, stops and opens
someone gets in, he presses to go 3 floors more
2 floors more someone enters and presses the button to go 5 floors more
1 floor more the first guy gets out and 2 come in to go 2 floors more
2 floors more the Two guys leaves and no one comes in
1 floor more a woman comes in and chooses to go 5 floors more
1 floor more the second guy leaves and another comes and presses button #15
The elevator goes 3 floors down instead opens and a guy enters to go 3 floors down
3 floors down the elevator opens the guy leaves another enters with a daughter and wants to go 7 floors more
2 floors more a guy with a puppet enters to go 6 floors more
1 floor more a guy with an iPod enters to go 6 floors more also
1 floor more a girl enters to go 1 more floor than the kid
3 floors more the guy with the daughter leaves and no one comes in
1 floor more the guy with the puppet leaves
1 floor more the guy with the iPod leaves
1 floor more the woman leaves and the kid realizes they both leave at the same floor
Then the kid asks the woman something about their floor
The woman responds and the kid reaches his destination on the floor
At what floor do they leave off at? At what floor does the remaining guy and girl leave off? What did the kid ponder/ask?
3)When I leave my home, I float
I can be Cocoa

I can be Corn
At least that's what my name can say
What am I?
