Hard to be obsessive-compulsive when there are strange creatures coming out of the walls.

#10 During the Fall, otherwise unemployed never do wells can be seen in urban cattle ranges, poking through clumps of grass in pursuit of Magic Mushrooms. They don't produce a narcotic effect until they are dried out. That's when they become illegal.

#12 Hmmm...ya' know...if you take the common toadstool, boil it in water until you have a sort of brownish scum on the top of the water, scrape off the scum and dry it out, you get a brownish or whitish-grey powder.

This powder is reputedly one of the most poisonous substances on earth.

It's bitter, however, so it's best served with a food or drink where the bitterness won't matter much...

Just one of those little things I learned in a wild and misspent youth studying intersting things like toxic biological and chemical effects...
