Slylock Fox
March 21st, 2008
Someone stole a coin collection from Sir Hound’s mansion this morning. A witness claims Slick Smitty is the thief. Smitty insists he’s been marooned on this island for the past week. What is it about Slick Smitty’s appearance that leads Slylock Fox to doubt his alibi?
Answer — Slick Smitty has absolutely no facial hair! Slylock suspects Smitty had an accomplice bring him to the island.

Hello Bob,
Thanks for your comments at my blog!
Good puzzle today, I was thinking that it had something to do with the canteen, so I puzzled on it for a long time before getting to the answer.
Thanks for the fun!

Wow! Even though the answer was really simple, I couldn’t figure it out! It’s one of those where you don’t know what the sloution is, but when you find out what it was you go like, “I can’t believe I couldn’t figure it out!” You come up with some more awesome puzzles, Bob!
