The Young Poisoner’s Handbook Is On YouTube
Generally, the average little girl’s dream job is to either be a Mommy or a Ballerina. I, however, wanted to be a Mad Scientist. (Little girls also wish for a pony, I wished for magical powers, the ability to break dance, and a cigarette.) So after Barbie and I broke up, and sometime after playing mafia restaurant (instead of house) with my sister Azure and my cousin Kevin, I asked my parents for a chemistry set. In 1994, a little before my love letter to Eddie Vedder, and long after I quit imaginary smoking, I received the coolest goddamn present: a blue chemistry set from the Discovery Store.
Sadly, my memories of playing Pogs with the neighborhood pig-nosed boy snuffed any recollection of conducting experiments with Big Blue. Though, I do remember trying to harvest insects with the vials.
Three years later, still an aspiring chemist and drunk on HBO, I first saw my all time favorite movie: The Young Poisoner’s Handbook. A dark British comedy loosely based on the true story of Graham Young, otherwise known as the “Teacup Poisoner”, who discovers Antimony Sulfide, a chemical which “if treated incorrectly leaves the residue of a lethal poison, but Newton discovered that it could also be transformed…into a diamond of breathtaking beauty.” I’ll stop there.
Before the interweb, it was near impossible to get a copy of the movie and it wasn’t until 2005 (ten years after its original debut) that it was released on DVD. But now, you can watch it in parts on YouTube!! I made you a playlist:
(Thanks, PixieLustrosa!)
Epilogue:
In high school, I nearly failed chemistry. I did, however, excel in photography (this was before digital cameras, when students were still being taught how to process and develop film with—you guessed it—CHEMICALS.)

Terrific work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the web. Shame on the search engines for not positioning this post higher!

What a awesome posting, I did not imagine that you will come across a thing below. A pleasant surprise, it comes about seldom, but the following we can speak of a actual added worth on the reader. Annoy me about blogs typically amateurish article without excellent form and with errors. Right here I am pleasantly astonished. Hopefully make it to some authors, and write for their readers and not to possess anything at all on the web.
