Ever wanted to stop an elephant? Or perhaps knock out 100 people with a tablespoon worth of something?
Try Etorphine!
Otherwise known as M99 or Immoblion, etorphine is a semi-synthetic opioid possessing an analgesic potency approximately 1,000-3,000 times that of morphine. First discovered in 1960 it is used to immobilize large animals such as elephants and rhinos.
Etorphine is so strong that a single drop on the skin can kill a person within minutes.
In the US it is only used for veterinary purposes and possessing it can put you in jail, not to mention in the grave. Of course if you happen to live in Hong Kong and you are found guilty of manufacturing or trafficking the drug you may face a $5 million fine and life in prison.
Pure etorphine is a Schedule I drug in the US and as such cannot be manufactured, sold, bought or possessed in any amount except for research with government permission. The drug does not provide any recreational use simply because well, chances are you'll be dead before you get high.
I just thought it was interesting to write about. In veterinary uses it is usually dyed red for safety reasons.

It just came to my attention that the level of "Vampire" has been removed from the Status System. Wonder why?....

this is the part of the movie where the Shape appears from no where and says:
You KNOW too much! You must come with me.
*creepy music, fade to black*
again you dare question the genius of the great cancer?
Is'nt it obvious ?....no, wait, maybe not.
Ummm because THE "vampire" wanted to be the only one??

Why am I not in the mens category for "The Top"?
Just because I have sex with guys doesn't mean I want a vagina.
I am MAN Hear me "HEEEEEEEYYYYYY GIRL" *snap*
lmao :)
Oh, don't forget to add my journal to your favorites list!!
COMMENTS
hahahah Doc well I am not ina category either, am I knows I am a girl lol
I have to check mine now...... o.O
Im not there either...updates suck
If you had a vagina you would be on the sexy list for me ;)
I'm not on the women's list and I've been dealing with PMS for nearly 30 years now! I refuse to suddenly be dubbed a man and have to learn to deal with that! lol
dude, it's because we're so sexy we TRANSCEND the standard definitions of gender and orientation.
(this is what I tell myself)
OMG, you did NOT just do some shameless plugging (no punny) to be added to lists!! XDD
Members who have blocked me. Those with a question mark beside them either means I have no clue who they are or why they blocked me.

Wayne blocked me because I'm gay.
Bones because ..well I don't *know* why he did but I think it's because he feels I'm a liar which I don't know where he got that from.
And the others I'm not 100% sure, usually it's because they didn't like what I rated them.
I had no idea STABB blocked me and of course no clue why.
If by chance you are on this list and forgot why you blocked me, didn't know you did or would like to get over the reason why you blocked me please feel free to send me a message. Other than Wayne and S0MBER I don't have anyone else blocked.
How's that, I only have 2 folks blocked and yet I am blocked by 11?
COMMENTS
One person there, he blocked me too and i was kind of put off. i had a lot of respect for him, and he was very kind to me. Then i was blocked. shrugs.
ManSlayer, it looks like he blocks everyone. Check his rating comments. i was slightly amused.
My list is even longer than yours lol, I see we have some of the same people on ours too.....
ManSlayer blocks anyone who stamps him.
I lost respect for Wayne just then......
hehe aww hmm, they just don't deserve to be your friend Doc .. they are jealous of your sexiness lol
You are SO controversial, sweetie!
how do you see who has blocked you?
I wouldn't be upset at all if we had one more rule added to VR.
For all new members, in order to advance (counting for 50% of level 1, once it's completed then leveling would go back to the normal percentages) they must read the manual and click "I Agree" on each page.
That way at least some of the idiotic things that go on here would be resolved and no one would have any excuse when they are suspended or have a thread closed etc. They don't have an excuse as it is but I still think it would make things better and it would also save Admins a bit of time explaining why something was done. Besides the manual needs a few additions anyway, especially when dealing with the "letter" of copyright law and VR's rules.
Just a thought :)

Not a bad idea.....
excellent idea...
it could also maybe avoid those who create mutiple profiles to do it. Or at least get them to stop or get caught.
how dare you question the genius of our prince!!!! lol
What a good idea!
I LIKE IT
I'm getting pretty tired of my avatar. For those that may remember the different pics I've used are there any that you'd prefer to see back over this one or perhaps a new one (ideas would be appreciated)?
COMMENTS
I can't remember your avatars, but just remember to keep your naive childlike, Spock type look :-p
There's a charm about it ... somewhere! lol
What about something new and up to date..fresh...nakey ?...*sorry got carried away*
i was thinking something along the lines of a mad scientist look, you know with the whole einstein hair thing and all lol
Brett Farve, seriously go away. No one wants you.
He's like Al Gore, completely full of himself, almost always wrong and thinks the world will die without him.
COMMENTS
you know what's strange?
I can't think of a time without Brett Farve, but surely such a world existed once.
who?
I'd like to thank Cajome soooooo much for the PM gift :)
COMMENTS
Our little X is so spoiled. lol
cajome is cool like that , gotta love her.
AYW is right,she is a doll..and as for you,MBK is right too,you little spoily.We do wuv to spoil you rotten though.
Woot! My poem "Rebirth of a Vampire" has been added to the database.
It's the only poem I've ever written dealing with vampires and in classic Xzavier style is loaded with hidden meanings and all that fun stuff :)
Now, go rate it!
COMMENTS
Thats the way you roll baby:D
Aww and we dunna wanu to cry!~10~
Not that your blackmailing us or anything lol
Because i'd never want to be beaten by you. . . .
(in case you don't realize, that was laced in enough sarcasm to choke a horse. now where's my beating?)
I get it, you're not a Christian. Fine and I don't really care in this case.
But, God is spelled ~God~ NOT g*d or g_d and the Bible is spelled ~Bible~ NOT bible. They're both proper nouns you pinheads.
I have friends who do the whole g*d thing and it really ticks me off on a number of levels so if you're one of those people and wish to remain my friend then please refrain from being so self absorbed as to ignore language just to "make your [dumb] stand".
COMMENTS
LOL, I feel the same way.
What about Gawd? or Gahd. Or Gaughd. Or G0d. or Gxd.
or Even yet the g-man.
I agree hon, some people act like those two words are "bad" words or something. I don't get it personally.
Depends on how gawd is being used like "Oh gawd" ..that's fine. Using those in replace of the proper usage of God is a no no :)
In the Jewish tradition, they always spell it G_d or g_d when writing when I have read on their websites. It would depend on context actually. They have these things about certain words being unseemly when referring to that being to be either spoken or written.
well said - it is chic to mock and distort Christianity, but woe betide anyone who makes such remarks about any other religion.
Mollidew, you are right about it's spelling in Judaism however that isn't what I am talking about. Pretty much every example of G_d I've seen (on VR that is) has been from people who are trying to set themselves apart or can't bring themselves to write the word God simply because they follow Satan, nothing or some lunar goddess. To me it's more than just childish.
I bet they spend their entire weekends scraping "GOD" off their coins.
*scrape scrape scrape*
*scrape scrape scrape*
*sigh*
*scrape scrape scrape*
Perhaps they mistook the concept of never taking thy Lord's name in vain.
Maybe it's anything else. Who knows?
Damn it! Failed the Acolyte test by ONE question :(

lmfao!
Awwww *hugs*.....*giggles*.

I did that a lot.
Usually got about a 75 around the billion times I took it.
Try again.
so many have been there lol do it again!
Birra smells like cheese :)

*busts out laughing*
there's no way that can be a good thing, UNLESS it's nacho cheese.
Who doesn't like cheese?

haha, I'm not sure.
I found one of the variations (the isopentyl form specifically) is 9,200x stronger than morphine! Of course that isn't used at all and is rather frightening.
