'Depressed Pakistani severs head with electric saw'
Depressed, ya say? I suppose that would help if you're gonna do something like this...
A Pakistani businessman, depressed by the impact of economic crisis, killed himself with an electric saw by almost severing his head in his Sharjah home, Al-Ittihad newspaper said on Friday.
"Whattaya think, Muldoon?"
"Craftsman, Sarge, the 7 1/2 incher."
The man, aged 60, was the head of several construction firms affected by the international credit crunch.

His body was found in a pool of blood on Wednesday, with the electric saw still running, the newspaper said, quoting police in Sharjah, one of the seven emirates making up the United Arab Emirates. His wife said her husband had complained recently about the difficulties he faced because of the lack of finance needed for company projects and to honour promises to his clients.
