Ask Questions and Recieve an Honest Answer or Lie?

I have chosen to ask questions because I could find out many things if I can ask questions. Lying could make me feel guilty and I may not be believed anyway. I would definatley choose asking questions because I am a curious person.

Jonas' Journal

Today was the ceremony of twelve. I was very apprehensive about what assignment I would be given. But when the elder skipped my name I was on the urge of panicking. But soon the elder corrected my fears by announcing I had been chosen. I am now the receiver, but a little more than apprehensive.

Aspects of a mystery

The picture of a man with a cap and magnifying glass is a picture of Sherlock Holmes. He is a famous detective.

There is a picture of someone getting their pocket picked. In this picture the lady is the victim.

There is a picture of a star wars book called the only witness. In this book some one must be saved because they witnessed a crime.

There is a collection of cluedo cards. The people on these cards are the suspects in the game of cluedo.

The picture of a fish is a red herring. A red herring is something the throws the good guy off the trail.

Monk 1

Today and yesterday in class we watched an episode of the TV show Monk which goes with our mystery unit in english class. Here is a synopsis of the episode;

"An old woman named Martha is found dead after being hit by a baseball being used by a young baseball league. There is nothing criminal about this but when Martha's family come to visit Martha's home they find a package which had been sent three days earlier. The package has been opened and inside is a voodoo doll with abaseball attatched to its head.

Inspector Monk, Natalee (Monk's secutary), Captain Stottlemeyer and Lieutenant Disher are soon at the death scene. When Monk, Stottlemeyer and Disher start joking about witch -doctors and voodoo Natalee rounds on them and insists that voodoo is real. While Natalee argues against Monk and Stottlemeyer, Disher receives a call and soon repeats it to the others. There has been another voodoo death.

The team are meated at the dead man's house by the police. The police hands Monk a newspaper about the incident of a golfer being struck by lightning and the article has a photo of a paramedic next to a stretcher. Inside the house is a voodoo doll with a lightning bolt coming out of its head. It was posted three days before the man's death. The case is becoming spooky and Natalee is becoming scared.

The next day Natalee comes barging into Monk's home with a suitcase and insists on Monk coming with her on a vacation. Monk asks her to call Captain Stottlemeyer to see if this is okay. Natalee picks up the phone and chats sweetly into the phone. When she finishes Monk notes that the phone Natalee just 'called' the captain on is unpluged and Natalee breaks down. She confesses that she was hust trying to get out of town and away from the case. Mr. Monk tries to calm her down but Natalee reveals that a third voodoo death has bee found."
