So he's gone. Too bad. Hope all you idiots are feeling mighty proud of yourselves. Something tells me you're going to feel as empty and worthless tomorrow as you did yesterday when Frank was alive.

Because you see, there's no such thing as revenge. Revenge is merely something WE made up to make ourselvse feel better, but in truth, there is no such thing.

The way you have described your incarceration truly leads me to believe that there is a better way. A better way to handle the violence, the hatred, the lack of education. I am a restaurant manager and my day is all about systems, training, direction and motivation. Why can't an intelligent person, like yourself, design a true prison curriculum that focuses on rehabilitation, rather than simply housing masses of people. I have created numerous training programs for new restaurant concepts, and a well planned, scheduled system would make the prison environment a more productive and effective form of justice. I applaud your path, and know that not everyone looks down upon the prison population, I have hope for you, and say NICE JOB BROTHER.

Thankyou PALMERMABOY. That is the truth!
Francis has met his maker as of yesterday.
I am glad I will never have to sit thru another parole hearing for him.

I am on the "outside" and often feel as you do about engaging another in a fight. Wondering how much abuse to take from others at work or on the street before I make it physical. Like you, I battle with pent up anger from all the times I tried to do the right thing- turning the other cheek, being meek and humble. Thing is, meek and humble look good to God but sometimes are very painful to our ego as you have stated. I know I could engage and do some damage, maybe too much. Therein lies all the possible outcomes, most of which are negative and worse than swallowing my pride and not engaging physically. I also could get hurt, arrested and possibly sued or incarcerated then how would I work and provide for my family? God's way is better, not always easy.

Not even sure what to say to all of that. Doesn't make any sense. Also, you chose to fight when you killed someone. Just because you're in jail, doesn't mean everything is good. There are friends, there are families, that all hurt even years later. You will not fight with anyone, I suspect, because you can't - you're in jail. Where do you want it to "go from here". Just forget about it all? I think not...

Dear Nate ---

Thanks for your post -- very interesting stuff.
So you're aware, I responded to your plea - you have an inmate direct pkg coming your way - order number WEI3910214 - for 3 pks of embossed envelopes, a pk of lined paper and a couple black ballpoint pens.

Enjoy it.
