And it was originally a short story, called "Lamb to the Slaughter", by Roald Dahl, of
Willy Wonka fame. Hitch may have been the originator of the icicle as a murder weapon
idea. You know, stab your victim with an pointed icicle, the weapon melts along with
the fingerprints. However, there is no defense if a man comes at you with a bunch of
raspberries ...
