Gruesome murderer wants to die with dignity

Get this…

Yahweh Ben Yahweh, a race-separatist cult leader, is awaiting a decision on release from parole (after serving 11 years of an 18-year sentence on racketeering charges in connection with as many as 23 gruesome murders, some involving beheadings) and is dying of cancer. His lawyer asked a federal judge in October to approve his immediate release so that his client could “die with dignity.”

He wants to die with dignity when the people he had killed weren’t allowed to die with dignity? I hope they don’t grant him a release.

It pays to be a light bulb changer in Birmingham

Changing a light bulb in Birmingham is getting expensive - the cost is now over 90,000 pounds. News that a council street and traffic lights engineer received 91,000 pounds for 2005/2006 including overtime bonuses, even though he was off sick, caused an uproar. Apparently the average pay in Britain is about 23,000 pounds a year.

Birmingham City Council’s Alan Rudge said he intended to stamp out the practice of workers getting bloated pay packets. Earlier this month, Birmingham council came under fire when news leaked that some road workers, whose job was to paint white lines on the city’s streets, earned 1,000 pounds a week.

Wow, maybe I should move to Birmingham England and get a job working for the city?

Man Pees in bottle - Disgusting!

Did you hear the story about the man who was jailed for urinating in a soda that sickened a convenience store customer could be in trouble again, this time because he can’t produce the bodily fluid. Right.

The accused urinator, Anthony Mesa, 22, was sentenced to six months in jail for urinating in the bottle of Mountain Dew and must also periodically take a urine drug test.

Unfortunately, he failed to take a court-ordered test Sept. 19, the Orlando Sentinel reported Thursday.

He said he has a condition called shy bladder that affects his ability to urinate in public and therefore to take the drug test. He has offered to take the test another way, including with a blood sample. I guess he’s trying?

Mesa, a former convenience store clerk in Deltona, pleaded no contest last year to tampering with a consumer product. A construction worker who purchased the soda he urinated in began vomiting after drinking it. Well I guess so if someone peed in it.

Gross!
