Anyhow, I have a question, are lungfish supposed to be able to walk on land
I have not edited the lungfish files, and I believe they are walking on land

I went to the DFwiki page, typed "lungfish" into the webby searchy thing and got DF2012:Lungfish

That'd be fun: who wants too do it? I can do it myself but I want too see other people do it with me.

You mean a succession DF Adventure mode?

If the bodies were found "drained of blood", he's a vampire.  If not, he's simply a murderer.

i think i will just lock him in a 3x3 room forever until he starves... make an example of him for future politicians

IF he's a vampire, he'll never starve.  He'll just be very bored until his clothes rot off, eventually going insane...FOREVER!!!

My bookkeeper vampire only got one victim, so I made a 3x3 room with a burrow, engraved a slab for the victim and placed the victim's coffin and slab, a table and chair, a fine statue into the room, assigned it as his office, assigned him to the burrow and walled the doorway over after he entered.  He has now spent the past 8 years keeping inventory via spores, and passing the time enjoying the various objects in his office/cocoon.  Once he goes insane, I'm going to pit some Trolls in through the ceiling and then seal that over too.

Edit: after re-reading the thread, I see I misread the first time.  The crimes were not hidden, thus I'm liking the Cask of Amontillado, too.

My honey industry is a mess.  The raw honeycomb and jugs of honey keep ending up in my finished goods stockpiles and this makes it next to impossible to press it for mead without constant cancellations due to shortages of empty jugs and constant treks from the kitchens.   I'd expect the honey would be bulked into stone pots or barrels, just as booze does, and stored in the food stocks that are clearly marked to accept the honey, thus freeing up the huge stock of jugs.
What simplistic solution am I overlooking?

Can't you forbid pots and jugs from that stockpile?

Okay, I forbade jugs from all other stockpiles, so that's one problem dealt with.
Oddly, raw honeycomb is under "tools" (wtf?) in the "z" menu, and I can't find them in the  stockpile menu.  I suppose I can store my tools in the kitchens.  Still, why doesn't the honey and jelly get bulked into pots and barrels like other liquids instead of being left in jugs?  Is this normal behaviour?  I can't tell because I've never experimented with honey until now.

You're experiencing an old bug. It looks like jugs can be stored in bins, so if you allow bins in your food stockpile, they'll take up less space.

Thank you for the solution.  I was so focused on the jugs, it didn't occur to simply allow bins.

flour and sugar will be cooked with jelly without problems, and they're completely impossible to store outside of bags.

Thanks for the info.  My honey industry produces a surplus of jelly that's difficult to get cooked.

Concidering quarry bush leaves seem to be a favourite, and liquids like jelly and syrup are least favourable, I doubt you can force a leaf/syrup mix.  You can provide encouragement, though.  If you did have it in the past, I assume it was a fluke.  The AI coding often has predictable, yet often undesirable, behaviour.
Why do you quest for this specific mix?  Personally, I find a a nice plate of finely minced emu tallow roast, or a bowl of well minced prickle berry stew very satisfying. 

I simply build a cage in my barracks, attach a lever to it, transfer the prisoner to the cage, (optionally strip him/her of all equipment) and pull the lever.  Not recommended with non-disarmed Anythinglords.  Those guys dodge too many strikes and land too many blows.
...and don't make my mistake of releasing nine goblins and three trolls at the same time.  Oops, civilian casualties!
