    Jeez, a lot of fried chicken. I suppose your health isn't a concern at this point, so what the heck.



    Did you notice this?

    If only, I wouldn't be hearing these annoying collaborations on the radio all the time!

    Dude, those guys stuffed themselves! One of them had not one, but two 16oz. steaks.



    Me, just give me a Papa John's All The Meats pizza, a gallon of Anderson-Erickson 2% milk, and a package of Double-Stuffed Oreos.

    Damn, I would be pissed if I didn't get what I wanted. I'd already be dying. That snub of the last taco is just rubbing it in.

    Reading that made me feel sick. I don't think i'll ever understand capital punishment. All i could think of was 'more than a few of those meals were for innocent people'. Damn.



    Incidentally, i think the high number of fried chicken and fried-bun-triple-hamburger meals gives you an idea of the social class that tends to get executed for murder. Middle and upper class people also commit murder, but they're probably much less likely to be killed by the state.

    Don't a lot of these guys give their meals up to the other people on death row?

    Yeah but CT still has the death penalty, even though none have been performed since 1976

    Can you choose anything for your last meal? Like a couple of gallons of gasoline and a box of fireworks before an electrocution?

    Two 16 oz. ribeyes, one lb. turkey breast (sliced thin), twelve strips of bacon, two large hamburgers with mayo, onion, and lettuce, two large baked potatoes with butter, sour cream, cheese, and chives, four slices of cheese or one-half pound of grated cheddar cheese, chef salad with blue cheese dressing, two ears of corn on the cob, one pint of mint chocolate chip ice cream, and four vanilla Cokes or Mr. Pibb

    Great googaly moogaly. I read in Maxim magazine about the Sumo guy that basically drank a liquor store out of stock for his birthday, but this is perhaps even more.

    i doubt you could choose anything. i think a few more would go for illicit substances. afterall, what could taste better than heroin, especially when the health detriments are moot.

    Hmm. I find heroin kind of bitter and tarry to the palate.

    I notice that more than a few of those executed had the prior occupation of 'Electrician'.



    I find that disturbingly ironic...
