Any ideas of the answers for the 4 questions?

If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle. If the horse has one front leg in the air the person died as a result of wounds received in battle. If the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes.

In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes.

When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase......... "goodnight, sleep tight."

What if the horse is raising just one hind leg?

They really don't spoil. Lard, sugar and flour, what's to spoil? The shelf life of an unopened twinkie is over 100 years!

Twinkies haven't even been invented for that long, and in my house they would never go unopened for more than a day or two. :)

BTW, lard, sugar and flour all spoil but now you've got me thinking about the preservatives in twinkies. I bet they are screaming high.

I was telling some members tonight at a ward activity about your statue trivia and we all wondered if any one thought about that when the statue of Hyrum and Joesph was made in Navuoo? (natural causes???)
