The hit men were gathered for their reunion. There were very few women there since they are relative newcomers to the business. Business as in, "Nothing personal, it's just business, dad". They were like a bunch of little kids talking about their methods.

"Man, I'd always make ice bullets. Got the job done and no ballistics. I could use my own gun everytime. Can't always rely on what you're given, you know?", said Guido "Rocky" Manfredo.

"Yea, Rock, but they still got you", replied Gussie Augustino.

"Yea, there was a police convention going on next door. How was I to know?"

"Man, you guys is loco. Me, I jez blow dem away wis dynamite. Man, no body, no evidence", said Chico "Chico" Gueveras.

"Well, my good man, that's all well and good. It was a good approach at the time. However, science has caught up and, I'd say, passed you. With just the smallest piece of the body they can do a DNA test for identity purposes", Humbert "Queenie" Whyte-Parker-Holmes informed him.

"That's true, Chico", offered Henry "Hammerhead" Hutchins. "I have stopped using ice bullets since the day the temp was too high, the intended too late and the gun wouldn't fire. The guy broke my arm and both of my legs".

"Now I use a very small nuclear device. There definitely isn't any DNA to test on, Queenie".

"I'd say not, sir. However, there is a small flaw to your method. You not only have the police after you but the Atomic Energy Commission. They play for keeps, my dear ", Whyte-Parker-Holmes said.

"Yea, and not only that but who knows about this Homeland Security crap. Can they be bought?", Manfredo asked.

"Yea, it sure ain't like it used to be. Was a time you just walked up to a guy, popped him and went home. Now you gotta plan everything down to the last letter. Then you got to have luck", Gussie threw in.

Whyte-Parker-Holmes told them he had a new method that was foolproof and totally effective.

"What I do is send the wife or boyfriend, if that be the case, a picture of the mistress, or the whatever. One day is all it takes. The guy deceased and the police have the killer, who isn't me, or is it I?".
