Angry worker eats his own finger

A Serbian union official has been explaining why he chopped off his finger and ate it in a protest over unpaid wages.

Zoran Bulatovic said he staged the grisly stunt to highlight the desperation of himself and colleagues, some of whom who have not been paid earnings dating back several years.

He said: "We, the workers have nothing to eat. We had to seek some sort of alternative food and I gave them an example. It hurt like hell."  ...

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

I'm surprised he didn't give his boss the finger.

I can see a new recipe from Emeril LaGasse:

"Digit Delight"

It starts out with a mirepoix in butter, then the digit is added long enough for the nail to fall off. Add chicken stock to cover and simmer slowly till it falls off the bone.

Garnish with chopped parsley and serve piping hot.

Great for cold winter afternoons!

It does have a familiar ring to it, but I just can't put my finger on it.

Well at least now we all know that cutting off your finger and eating it "Hurts like hell".

He's lucky they didn't throw him in the Joint for being crazy.
