    He went too far, that Ceasar, by wasting a perfectly good sample.

    Oh crap. My giant billion dollar iron ore and rare earths trade just got derailed. Hongjuo was totally my connection to the investment game. But don’t worry, if you invest now, you’ll be getting in on the (back to the) ground floor.

    Holy shit, thank Zeus he was “Shot Dead By Farmer.” When I initially read the title I thought he was “Shot By Dead Farmer.” Poor people discovering how to become zombies would scare me shitless…
