Two Too Fat bad guys!

Well, hi there! How're you faring today, eh? Ticking right along? Good! Keep on ticking. That's my motto! Fill your coffee mug and follow your nose to the tray of virtual goodies while I tell you about two bad guys who have been following their noses too much.

(1) Ohio death-row inmate Ronald Post, 53, asked a federal court in September to cancel his January date with destiny on the grounds that, despite almost 30 years of prison food, he's still too fat to execute. At 480 pounds, "vein access" and other issues would cause his lethal injection to be "torturous." I think that's pure BS. I'm with Larry the Cable Guy on this one..."Get 'er done!"

(2) British murderer-sadist Graham Fisher, 39, is locked up in a high-security hospital in Berkshire, England, but he, too, has been eating well (at about 325 pounds). In August, he was approved for gastric-band surgery paid for by Britain's National Health Service at an estimated cost, including a private room for post-op recuperation, of about $25,000).

If someone can get up to 325 pounds eating prison food, who does their catering, I wonder?  Whatever happened to the old 'bread and water' deal? But, hey, the way Britain's been throwing around their taxpayers' money, what's another 25G?

I think we should put that Arizona Sheriff 'Joe' in charge of prisons worldwide. Everyone'd be in pink and they'd all be living in tents and working for the roads department to bring down the local municipalities' costs. Within about two years, national debts could be wiped out and we'd likely have enough money to build a four-lane bridge across the Pacific!

See ya, eh!
