texas eyeballs
Readers' Choice: More evidence of "Texas justice [sic]"
Death row inmate Andre Thomas, 25, ate his left eye in December after he just yanked it out. Sounds like he's nuts (and thus cannot be executed), but not in Texas. Thomas yanked out his right eye in 2004, yet the judge and jury still thought he knew right from wrong. And his arrest earlier in 2004, for three murders, came about because he walked into a police station to confess and handed over the three victims' hearts, which he had carved out of their corpses.

Got to be hungry to eat your own eye, he must be in that $1.75 a day diet prison.

Can't just be hunger, otherwise he would have started with something like his toes.
Didn't Stephen King have a story about a guy who had to eat himself?

Don't worry, kingmonkey. I will look the other way.
Or, do you think you deserve 20 lashes?
I'll tell you what. How about I put a lid on the eye puns?

Maybe he's on a see food diet. I wonder if he enjoyed Look Bars before he was insighted to kill.
