Well… the cat is out the bag. Some of the guys in my unit found out that I had acted in movies prior to getting here and all hell has broken loose in F Unit. I have acquired the new nickname ‘Superstar’… I am asked at least 10 times a day if I have met […]
I have been told on many occasions that my routine oriented, habitual nature is a little extreme. I find peace in routine and know what I like… so, if it ain’t broke… don’t fix it… right? I have to admit that in real life, keeping a strict routine is not always realistic and in some

I was watching the NFL Draft this past week with some of the guys in here… forgetting my current surroundings for a bit and basking in the normalcy of watching the draft as I would be doing in real life. It was a cool experience… just a group of dudes talking football. Looking forward to

I was walking the track last night, talking to (mostly listening to) another guy in here for almost two hours. He was going on and on about the decisions he has made in life, all the mistakes, he should have done this… would have done that if only “X” would have happened. He is making

Today is my youngest son’s 2nd Birthday. He won’t have his Dad with him to celebrate the big, smiley, cuddly, strong, smart boy that he is. He didn’t have his Dad with him on his 1st birthday either. His Dad was there, standing proudly (of his Momma and the little guy) the day that we
AUTHOR: TIM TIGNERFICTION RATING: 7 out of 10 Suspenseful and entertaining throughout. Solid page turner and loved Tigner’s writing style. He combined a highly cerebral storyline with popcorn action that satisfied on all levels. Certainly recommend.

It’s 3:22pm on Wednesday. Wednesday in F Unit is laundry day so we put all of our dirty clothes in mesh bags and place them in the bin at the front of the unit on Tuesday night. Clothes are returned around mid-day on Wednesday… mostly clean and extremely wrinkled… so my Wednesday afternoon routine entails
DHARMA IN HELL : THE PRISON WRITINGS OF FLEET MAULAUTHOR: FLEET MAULLNON-FICTION RATING: 7.5 out of 10 Thoroughly enjoyed this book. I watched an interview with Fleet Maull prior to surrendering and find his outlook on life, experience and overall perspective on society and how to be a productive part of it relatable and admirable.
MISGUIDED: A LEGAL THRILLERAUTHOR: JAMES CHANDLERFICTION RATING: 5 out of 10 Enjoyed the read. Chandler keeps you intrigued throughout but nothing earth shattering. Although it wasn’t a hugely suspenseful thriller… it was entertaining and I would recommend if you like legal/crime oriented stories. THEMES PTSD | CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM | JEALOUSY | BETRAYAL | CAREER
Oh advice… we give it… we get it… we want it but don’t like it unless it parallels what we already thought to begin with… we don’t want it but get it anyway. Advice is a very prickly pear… and advice inside prison walls is a whole other experience all together. I was told (and
