Always Room for One More...

JP from Eyes Never Closed sent me yet another DGC addition:

UPDATE: Homeowner Shoots and Kills Intruder in Putnam County
SCOTT DEPOT, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- What started with planning a break-in ended with one family planning a funeral.

West Virginia State Police say Stephen King, a man in his 20s, broke into the Scott Depot home of Jeff Walker. Troopers say Walker's dogs alerted him of the intruder.

"He heard the dogs, he saw a gentleman standing there who had a handgun, his handgun was raised," W.Va. State Police Sgt. K.S. Dickson said. "Mr. Walker, who was an avid sportsman and hunter, raised his gun and shot the man."
Break into someone's home and point a gun at them and wind up getting shot dead for your troubles? What is this world coming to? I think that the goblin's union should file an "unsafe workplace" grievance with the local HOA for allowing someone to make the burglar's occupation too hazardous, don't you? All kidding aside, it's a shame whenever a life is cut short, even for a goblin; however it's a damn sight better when the law breaker is the one losing his life than the law abiding. Maybe that's cold-hearted of me, but tough rocks.

Want to avoid exposing your insides to the outside? Don't break into peoples' homes.

Dead Goblin Count: 113

That is all.

Anyone else react to the goblin's name? Oh well, at least it didn't turn into a horror story. :D
