Really enjoyed this post. It sometimes seem so much easier to lose hope and give up. I have been going through some difficult times and I can relate to you in the sense of not giving up hope, just HOPING better things are in my future and HOPING things work themselves out. I was feeling pretty down today, and your post has lifted my spirits a little, and for that, I thank you! Looking forward to more of your posts. Alexandria
I enjoy your posts greatly and look forward to more to come. I would love to hear more about your story and how you have ended up where you are (in regards to the 3 strike law) Alexandria
I am so sorry that you had to spend another year locked up. After reading each of your posts, my admiration grows. Even after being dealt with the sentence from Hell, you still aren't extremely bitter. I am ashamed because I know if our situations were reversed, I would be whinning, bitching, moaning, complaining, and desperately feeling sorry for myself. Most of all, I would be so bitter and ready to kill anything and everything in my path.
Your granddaughter is staying with me right now, while Scotty is in Lerdo. She is so beautiful and absolutely perfect. You should be so proud! I will do my best to get some pictures and send them to you. Can you believe that you are a grandpa????I have a two year old grandson too.
The other day I went online and watched the Quiet Riot "Party All Night" video. It was so cool. You were so young. I didn't remember being able to see you so many times and there are some really clear shots of you.
I need to go to bed, I have to work in the morning. I just wanted to tell you I love you and miss you so much!
Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post.
I'm right there with you. I was born in '81, in a nice green place just outside of London, and I remember Other Kate over the road and I sneaking up into the woods behind her back fence to pick blackberries, alone and unsupervised - and also a boy named Stephen hitting me in the head with a plastic toy hammer and making me bleed, but that's another story.
But then things changed. They took our school climbing frame away because Andrea C. fell off it and broke her arm - but she was hanging off it by her feet, not exactly sensible usage! We weren't allowed snapping bracelets because the metal could work through and cut us. We weren't allowed to play British Bulldog because a girl called Victoria ran into a stone wall head-first and knocked herself out (again, her own fault)!
I saw your episode and you said you do not regret getting involved in the prison riot that afforded an additional 142 years to your prison term. Why do you not regret it?

It's all very sad.
