    Funny thing

    I came across a site, Alaska Prisoners Web Site. On it was a thing called Tony's Blog. I popped in thinking I might know the guy. I do.

    One of his entries stated he was listening to Rahsaan, Aces Back to Back and another was his listening to Mingus' Devils Blues.

    The cat is doing hard time and he baked for me. I found him to be a good guy. I installed a stereo in the kitchen and played what I wanted. Tony became interested in jazz and I gave him a starter kit of CD's.

    They seem to be doing him some good.

    Just kind of funny to see how an act of kindness still lingers......

    Good that he's allowed to have music. I have a friend doing hard time in the federal system (21 years so far) and another who was paroled last year after 20. Neither was allowed music or anything to play it on. Both were allowed television.

    I'd have found a way to commit suicide.

    Interesting and funny thing, indeed, Bruce.

    Gary: you've often spoken of this friend of yours. I assume you mean the fellow that did time in Leavenworth, who you call a political prisoner (sometimes you say that he is in the American gulag). I'm curious as to who this fellow is, how you know him, and what his alleged crimes/the facts as you them are.

    Don't answer more than you feel appropriate.

    Nah.

    Gary calls the public school system and their teachers the American gulag.


    The bastard sons of bitches, f**king jerk wads....what right do they have to teach anything, huh?


    I think we need to privatize the school system so Gary's beloved corporations can make it all better.


    Then all will be just hunky-dory and all will be right with the world....and the third party fring-ies will have something else to bitch about.






    Psssh.

    On a regular basis I hear this bullshit from Gary.

    This would be my opportunity to do a little get-back.



    And yeah...I liked it.












    Sue me.
