Dear Mr. Collins,

Thank you very much for posting this information. I read your profile and green is also my favorite color (specifically, grass green).

I recently read about Ad-Seg and I'm surprised anyone would volunteer for it-- the alternative must be pretty rough if it's the better option. I can send you the article if you'd like to read it.

I'm glad this blog exists because I think a lot of what goes on in prison is kept quiet. If you'd like to write to me directly, my office address is:

The Nation
33 Irving Place
Eighth Floor
New York City 10003

Michael - Thanks for your reply! I just transcribed that, too. Don't worry about carpal tunnel : ) I have a few transcription tricks that help cut down the labor.

Your transcript looks great, keep up the good work! A 3.52 GPA is definitely something to be proud of.

Best of luck to your daughter in her new endeavor. That's good advice you gave her.

I look forward to reading your next post, Fatherless Homes.

Ciao, Susan

Marcus, got your reply on around July 29. I think this whole setup that betweenthebars has is very cool in concept. Yes, im NC. My name on here is UNCGuy only because I love the UNC Tar Heels. Big college basketball fan. Never went to Carolina. I ended up going to NC State for a short time, then dropping out.

College is a blast. It was too much of a blast, in fact, and I got horrible grades and screwed up my financial aid. But, 7-8-9 years later and I still pay a monthly payment to pay for my student loan for that one year. It was worth it, though, because you're young, have lots of energy and tons of things to do. Work out at the gym, play basketball, hang out, etc. Your housing and food are basically taken care of, etc.

Question: what is a normal day like for you?

I'd write directly, but honestly this system is so much easier and immediate that if I had to send in a physical letter, I'd never get around to doing it.

Take care,

John

I did resend the letter and pictures and no they did not get returned. I will call the institution to find out where they are! also Tina Blase has been in contact with me and would like your address to write you she says she misses you. I told her I would have to ask you first if I could give it out. I love your responses here it is much easier for me to respond faster to you. I did get your thank you card and the birthday card thank you so much. Ive been so busy with work .. working my butt off to be able to telecommute so I can work from home working towards that goal for next month. wish me luck! anyhow I love and miss you and cant wait for your home coming! I love you !!

write back via the blog soon!

Love your sista!
Kristine
