[@stigrabbid589]

The B12 antidote for Cyanide is really interesting, the most common version used in supplements is cyanocobalamin, and basically hydroxocobalamin absorbs the cyanide to form cyanocobalamin, which your body just gets rid of as B vitamins are water soluble.

He told me numerous crazy stories about how different the times were when he was a first voted in as sheriff in the 70’s. He spoke about things that he got away with and things he almost got caught for and different court cases he was able to help with for his friends around the county. Once I finished up we walked out to the front door and I asked him about this beautiful plant he had on the edge of his porch. He says- “oh you’d never imagine what that is. It’s a caster plant. You can pretty much boil it down and make ricin with it. I was given the plant in my early 20’s by a local fbi guy I used to drink with” I left there and my imagination didn’t stop running for a full week lol.

I know for a fact he ate the oleander leaves that he could reach, and he seemed to even like them. Maybe he was a defected Bulgarian draft horse seeking to build up his immunity in case the equine secret police came looking for him? All I know is "Rebel" was sure a cool ol' fella and was already pretty old when I had moved away at age 14, but seemed to be in remarkably good health. The other sad possibility I've considered is Rebel was trying to buy the big ticket out, coz I don't remember him ever being taken on the trail by my neighbors the whole 14 years I was living there.
