Despite today's blog title, I can assure I have not turned into a blood sucking vampire. However, the same can't be said for some others. Cambodia's jails are not known for their excellent hospitality and general humaneness. To relieve his boredom one inmate savagely beat his roomy to death during a power outage. That may not sound too out of the ordinary, but he then proceeded to drink his victim's blood. The guards rushed to the cell with torches but were too late to help the victim. The guy is still in the same cell, together with 31 other prisoners because there is no space anywhere else for him. The man also said that he was unhappy about not getting any visitors. I guess idle hands really are the devil's tools.
Speaking of butchers, the number of butcher shops in the Netherlands has been reduced by half in the past 10 years. I am not sure that this a good development. You're talking about more than 2500 pissed off, out of work people who really know how to turn your sorry ass into a nice rump steak. I bet they don't get a lot of hassle at the dole queue.
