LOL!
Make it look like an accident. Induce a slip up in the bathroom, statistically that is the most dangerous place in the house. :-D

We hear that comparison all the time, Blanche, (to the Addams family) for a variety of reasons.
I'm a huge fan of his New Yorker cartoons, btw. The show and movies missed the mark, however, being far lighter in tone than Charles Addams' vision.

Actually, ShutterCat, I think the uniform might be red here in Philly ...
Either way, if the warden will allow me to coordinate, I should be just fine.

I was never really able to take revenge on my brother
You go ahead and do it for all the times I couldn't! BTW, is he older or younger than you?

Mademoiselle, coincidentally, Wednesday happens to be name of the
child in that other wacky family, The Adams. It may not be just a day of the week, but a persona.

Apparently, Troosha ... at least it is in America.
However, I think it might be Thursday already in the UK. Oh, and for some reason, in Trinidad & Tobago, it's still Monday.
P.S. Thank you so much for the compliment.

That's odd, .Dave.,
Because she doesn't look anything like a boy.
In all seriousness, though, I've never heard that name on a guy.
Manon (pronounced man-own) is a French name, similar to Marie.

Wait until Christmas, or some other major holiday...and don't tell him. See how he likes a taste of his own medicine...if that doesn't work murder is still an option.

Instead of murdering him in his sleep.

I suppose nearly all sibling relationships are similarly fraught with conflict , TAPS ...
I actually have an older brother as well (different mother) ... but we don't talk about him.

Mademoiselle, This so reminds me of the days of my youth when my only brother was still alive and my most intelligent sis and I reacted with him in our daily lives during our teen years. My mother and father were totally stymied as to how to relate to us so dad just stayed at work as much as he could and mom would go shopping or visit the neighbors.

Madem, when I suggested the insanity defense I wasn't thinking of the statistical success........I was sort of thinking more along the lines that it would be a rather simple defense for your lawyer to put forth. 
Thank you bel!! Moon_Spirit 
(.......uhhhhhh.......meaning of course that I am sure that your family would provide you with only the best.)

You want to hit him where he lives?
Wait until he has a date with the woman of his dreams. Then slip him a dose of salt peter in his drink before he goes out.
The horror...the horror...

That's a popular misconception, Moon ...
In reality, the insanity defense is very rarely successful (less than 2% of the time).

While bel_1965 is technically correct, it should be fairly simple for you to beat the charges with an insanity defense. That way you will only have to spend the rest of your life in an institution for the criminally insane. Then you will be in a position to write some really good blogs. No, no, don't thank me.

The problem with #1
is you have put it out here. That immediately proves intent. I don't know if your state has the death penalty but something tells me that prison drab is not your color.
You might want to try and recall the other one.
