I think that a lot of people have at least had a passing thought of how to get back at our enemies. However, most of us just shrug it off and find healthier ways to deal with our problems. An Austrian man, however, took things to the extreme and poisoned, of all things, some chocolate truffles in an attempt to get his way.
Helmutt O decided that the best way to resolve his dispute with the mayor of his town was to bump him off. Helmutt put the deadly confections on the mayor's windshield with a note saying "you are someone very special to me." Of course the mayor ate the chocolates, suffered a stroke and, while he lived, now has to be cared for for the rest of his life. At the heart of the dispute was a rezoning issue. The mayor even agreed with Helmutt, but asked for a business plan that Helmutt never delivered. Blaming something on someone else when it's your own fault is sure definitely not the rational thing to do.
Two questions: Would you eat something someone left on your windshield? How could someone ruin something as wonderful as chocolate for their own selfish ends?
