Yeah, works!

I've replaced all "TODO" in org-agenda-files with "-", now in
org-agenda, I can change item state from "-" to ">" as usual, etc.

A New Way of Taking Pills
        A physician one night in Wisconsin being disturbed by a burglar, and
having no ball or shot for his pistol, noiselessly loaded the weapon with
small, hard pills, and gave the intruder a "prescription" which he thinks
will go far towards curing the rascal of a very bad ailment.
