Vampire bites woman

This gentleman, Lyle Monroe Bensley, 19, of Galveston, Texas is in jail after breaking into a woman’s apartment and biting her. Apparently, Bensley is a vampire and “needed to feed,” he reportedly told police. 
Bensley, covered with tattoos and wearing only boxer shorts, forced his way into the apartment on Seawall Boulevard and made his way into the bedroom of a woman whose name has not been released, Heyse said.
Bensley made growling and hissing noises while biting and hitting the woman in her bed, Heyse said. Bensley then dragged her out of the apartment and she broke free…


“I’m a vampire, and I’ve been alive for over 500 years,” Bensley said, according to (police officer Daniel) Erickson.

The Texas Miracle

brooklynmutt:

“[Rick] Perry calls it the “Texas Miracle” and that miracle has profited corporations and the rich in our state extremely well. But if you’re a regular American, if you’re a regular Texan, a work a day person, this is not the kind of economy you’re going to enjoy. For example, Perry talks about all the jobs that he’s created. What he doesn’t mention is that those jobs are mostly jobettes, not real jobs. In fact, in his 10 years as governor, he’s created more minimum wage jobs than all other states combined. He’s also managed to create a state in which we’re:

  • #1 in the number of children and families without health care coverage.
  • #1 in the wage gap between the rich and the poor.
  • #1 with the most regressive tax system in the country.
  • #1 in the number of toxic releases from industrial plants and chemical factories. 

We’re number one in the things we ought to be number 50 in, and we’re number 50 in the things we ought to be number one in.”
