Eyeless in Texas

A death-row inmate, in Texas, pulled his eye out and ate it.

Okay, that's hard to top. 

But here we go - he had plucked out his other eye some time ago.

Thomas was treated at East Texas Medical Center in Tyler after the Dec. 9 incident. Then he was transferred and remains at the Jester Unit, a prison psychiatric facility near Richmond southwest of Houston.

The "Jester Unit"?

He sounds like something from the dark side of the comic book world.

He's sentenced to death for killing his wife and kids, and cutting out their hearts.

Leave him alone with a fork and a knife.
Maybe we won't have to take his life.
He'll eat himself till he's not there -
simply digested into air.
