As you can see Sherlock 'helped me' create a poll.
By that I mean, I sat by Sherlock whilst he tapped away on my laptop very fast, firing questions at me about different ways to kill someone. And this was the result.
Of course, I have no idea how to delete it. Maybe that should be the next thing I learn - how to delete things from my hijacked blog!
I should add, if it sounds like Sherlock's getting all the 'fun' here, that I also brought Mycroft a copy of the 'Police Code of Practice', which we have to issue to everyone we arrest, if they want to read it. He asked the other day about the rules. I can't think of anything more boring...but he seems really interested!

Hahaha, Sherlock is quite keen on this whole violent crime business. Which way did he vote on the poll, or is he reserving judgment until all the votes are in?
Anyhow, very sweet of you to let him hijack even part of your blog. I mean, given the comments he and Mycroft interject throughout John's posts, he might have done so anyway, but I'm sure your input was invaluable. :)
I don't see why ligature is so unpopular.
And people wonder why I never wear a tie...
Tie wouldn't be thin enough to be really effective anyway. Not that it wouldn't work, but it's not what I would look for in a murder weapon.
Can I point out that I'm sitting next to you on the sofa, whilst talking about ways you might murder someone on a public forum.
Does this show we're in a truly modern relationship? Like the kids who seem to date via FaceBook? It's like a weird seance with laptops...
And anyway, 'blunt object' is the least popular. If I came at you with a blunt object would you let me have my wicked way? Or would you beat me off...
...You make a compelling point. Several extremely compelling points. I think it's time for bed.
Either that or I'm showing you how to download AIM.
(And it's only least popular because I voted for ligature.)
Download what now? Did you mention bed...
And I knew it was you - I am a detective! I shall check the room for string, curtain ties, the drawstring on your pyjama trousers and anything else before I settle down to a good night. I mean a good night's sleep.
I voted 'other', by the way. So you can start guessing...
Do check thoroughly.
And shut your computer down in the next sixty seconds or I'm doing it for you.
(High explosives?)
Are you sure Sherlock isn't aiming to be a master criminal and Mycroft his defense counsel?
I think I'm exhibiting remarkable restraint by not wishing you a good night, guys.
'Other' seems to be the second most popular! Now I'm really curious as to what the readers who chose 'other' had in mind...
Lawless523 - (I worry about your name - I hope you're not really lawless.) I think you're being very optimistic if you think Sherlock would need a defence. Last night when I was telling him about the murder case he was pointing out what the bloke could've done to avoid being caught...and they were all pretty good ideas.
Yana - I feel I should worry that since I said that I'd voted 'other' it's suddenly leapt in popularity. I hope I'm not somehow influencing people in their criminal ways. I refuse to tell you my 'other' for fear of incriminating myself! Plus I don't think it' a good idea, in my position to give out ways to kill people which would be nigh-on undetectable...
I voted "blunt object". Because I'm a straightforward kind of person. *shrugs*
But when I dreamed of killing people, I used poison.
Mycroft told me a lot of statistics involving female killers and poisoning. I don't remember them all, but I know he's right that female killers are more likely to use poisons than other methods.
Should I worry about your dreams?
I voted poison, because it seems like the least traceable and the least close and personal. Though now that I think about it more, neither are probably true. Oh well. And I didn't choose ligature (I had to look it up) because then you have to sneak up on the person and handle him/her struggling to get free. Don't think I could handle that.
