Get a few syringes,       then administer the shots to yourself. It's exactly the same substance,       and you'll do fine as long as you can read and figure the proper dose.              You are a genius, but even common folks can do it.              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
