    Where did the term 'dead as a doornail' or 'dead as a doormouse' come from?

    This term is derived from the name of an aquatic creature and can be used to describe the characteristics of one under the influence of narcotics. When used as a verb it relates to a competitive 'sport' where those who are very pliable succeed. What is the term and can you provide an example?

    The origins of this term may involve a tactic associated with a sport now deplored by many, but we know it today primarily as a sometimes irritating literary plot device -- one most likely to appear in a mystery or thriller. What is it, and can you name a character in recent bestseller who not only functions as one of these but who also bears a name that is more or less a translation of the term in a Romance language?
