1,000 Hobbit hole knives shipped to date!
Wow... excellent.
I've lost track.
An aloe plant, a toaster, a pawnshop, the name "Guido" and what else??
Go bump the knife thread.... I just pinged to it and got us a new headline for it.... maybe stir some donations!
Done!
And I'll be sure to bump it later on tonight.

This your brain on Nanowrimo...

Any questions?
Bwahahaaaa! I put my data to simmer this afternoon and got to write a bit. So far so fun!
Hey got a question. What's a super-highpowered organophosphate, the nastiest one you know? I need it for the assassination scene.
Machiavelli, huh?
You're going to kill with an OP?
Parathion comes to mind for some reason but I don't know if it's the nastiest.
I need a nice organic chemical, comercially available, that is powdered. Needs to be a neurotoxin that's toxic when ingested. The story is set in the future, so the fictional chemical can be a future variant of a modern compound.
Hehehe....EPA is trying to phase out OP's. Doubt there'll be any future variants.
In the United States, perhaps. But it's a big world.
Are you thinking of another class of compounds that could do the job? Cyanide and arsenic are a bit cliche, I think.
*sigh*
That's what I'm facing now. Just got home. Did a little minor plotting at work (you know, I guess I shoulda done that a month ago or so...), but that's all.
We shall see what we shall see.
It could be a stealth ninja llama - no who read your story would even guess it's a ninja, but we'd know...
Ah well. I must press on. I'll figger the poison out later during revision.
I hear ya! Was going to write this morning. I faced The Blank Page and got down a hundred or so words before starting breakfast. At werk, I got in another hundred-ish. I'm sittin' here at 227 at dinner time.
