45 year old woman lived with a corpse

A Texas woman, 45, has been committed for mental evaluation after living in an apartment in Big Sandy for at least a week with her dead boyfriend’s body.

Police were flagged down last Friday by a man who stated that there was a stench coming from his sister’s apartment.

When police entered the apartment they found 50 year old William Drake dead on a couch. He appeared to have been dead at least a week. The woman apparently didn’t want to leave the apartment.

Burr said Drake died of natural causes and had recently stopped his dialysis treatments. He said Drake had lived for 10 years with the woman, who had been hospitalized for mental illness before. Burr declined to reveal her name.

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?
