I've certainly heard of cold blooded, before

But this takes the proverbial cake.

"OSWEGO, N.Y. - A 25-year-old woman was charged with trying to hire a man to kill her ex-husband, and police say she used one of his credit cards to pay for the would-be hit man's flight from Australia."

I mean, damn.

Hail Eris!

She'd have gotten further by using her own, though -- but then the charge would include "murder", and so on. A much better idea would've been finding some local talent, though a plan that would definitely have worked (allowing her to get away with it) would, I suppose, have required the sort of lateral thinking exemplified by the Coen brothers, so she never had much chance anyway. She's generally pretty similar to one of their more hapless schmucks, like the one in Fargo, ISTM...No criminal matermind (well, "mastermind" just sounds *wrong*;-{P}), she.
