Ohio Man Says He’s Too Fat For Execution August 5th, 2008
A death row inmate scheduled for execution says he’s too fat to be put to death, claiming executioners would have trouble finding his veins and that his weight could diminish the effectiveness of one of the lethal injection drugs.
Lawyers for Richard Cooey argue in a federal lawsuit that Cooey — 5-feet-7 and 267 pounds — had poor veins when he faced execution five years ago and the problem has been worsened by weight gain.
The lawsuit, filed Friday in federal court, also says prison officials have had difficulty drawing blood from Cooey for medical procedures.
Cooey, 41, is sentenced to die for raping and murdering two young women in 1986. His execution is scheduled for Oct. 14.
Two years ago, convicted killer Jeffrey Lundgren was put to death after a federal appeals court rejected his claim that he was at greater risk of experiencing pain and suffering because he was overweight and diabetic.

Quote me of The Day: Michael Lohan August 5th, 2008

On Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson wedding rumors.
“I haven’t heard anything (about an upcoming wedding) from Lindsay, but if she was marrying Sam, I don’t think she’d ask me to walk her down the aisle. She knows about my (Christian) faith … she just wouldn’t ask.
“I want her to be happy and healthy and stay on the right path. If I discuss (her relationship), I say that I want her to be happy.”

There’s a whole lotta sexiness goin’ on up in here! The hat, the facial hair, the face, the arm muscles. All hail Becks! He hits newsstands August 12.
On being told he was too small to play soccer professionally:
As upset as I was at the time, it made me think, ‘I’m going to prove I can play football professionally.
On being famous:
There is this madness around me, around my family. Without a doubt, out on the field is where I’m most comfortable, where I’m happiest, because I know what I’m doing and I know I can do it.
On playing golf:
I used to play golf, quite a few years ago, but to be honest, I’d rather spend 4 hours with the kids than 4 hours on a golf course. As much as it can be relaxing, it’s a frustrating sport. My way of relaxing is listening to music and spending time with the kids.
