''A Series of Unfortunate Events'' is a collection of books written by <s>Daniel Handler</s> '''Lemony Snicket''', and illustrated (with little regard for his personal safety) by '''Brett Helquist'''. The books chronicle the mournful lives of the Baudelaire children, following the tragic deaths of their parents. The children are placed under the guardianship of the villainous Count Olaf, who relentlessly hunts the Baudelaires from book to book in pursuit of the fortune entailed to them.
Though chemically relatively dissimilar ([[Lidocaine]] (C17H21N04) / [[Cocaine]] (C14H22N2O)), it is hypothesized that the mechanism of CNS activity may be the cause for the similar euphoric-producing side-effects of each [[Drug]].


Apart from a hideous monobrow, Count Olaf's most distinguishing feature is the [[Tattoo|tattoo]] of an eye on his left ankle. The tattoo, related to a mysterious organisation known as VFD, is the only weakness in an array of terrible disguises which none of the adults can see through.
This is entirely different than [[Lidocaine Anxiety (page does not exist)|'''lidocaine induced anxiety''']], a side effect of [[Epinephrine]] in products containing both [[Lidocaine]] and [[Epinephrine]].
 
The tattoo assumes even greater significance as the series progresses.

Lidocaine euphoria is a rather unusual side-effect to the administration of Lidocaine as either a Local anesthetic, a Nerve block or more rarely, Intravenous. Pharmaceutically speaking, this is considered to be a potential side-effect of the usage of Lidocaine; however, prior (or current) users of Cocaine appear to be more susceptible to this potential side-effect.

Though chemically relatively dissimilar (Lidocaine (C17H21N04) / Cocaine (C14H22N2O)), it is hypothesized that the mechanism of CNS activity may be the cause for the similar euphoric-producing side-effects of each Drug.

This is entirely different than lidocaine induced anxiety, a side effect of Epinephrine in products containing both Lidocaine and Epinephrine.
