Go Away for a Week...

...and the DGC suffers. Fortunately, I have my sources (thanks brad_in_ma!) sending me heartwarming stories of goblins achieving room temperature even when I'm away. Like this one:

Police: Judge Shot, Killed Intruder
Officials in Richmond County say a man who was shot after a break-in at the home of Superior Court Judge Carlisle Overstreet has died at the Medical College of Georgia Hospital.

Richmond County sheriff's Capt. Scott Peebles said Overstreet shot one of two men who broke into his home early Friday.
You know what that is? That's victim selection fail in action. Along with Darwin. I mean, first off, breaking into a home in GA isn't the brightest choice for starters - I think they're about as well-armed as Texans. Secondly, not doing a little homework to make sure that, oh, maybe your potential victim isn't affiliated with the criminal justice system? Sometimes stupid is fatal.

In any case, it adds to the count.

Dead Goblin Count: 60

That is all.

I really doubt that goblin (and most of the others) ever did a minute of homework in his life.

Every Georgian assumes that every other Georgian is armed. I mean, that's the basics down here.....like Dodge City, you just assume.

How unfair! The home owner acted as judge, jury, and executioner! Oh wait...

"a man ... has died at the Medical College of Georgia Hospital."
Back to the range with you, Judge Overstreet. You are far, far too compassionate.
Two for two next time please. Saves on hospital costs and court time.
