I read you blog entry about scalping tickets to a Gloria Estefan concert. I found it interesting to hear from the side of the scalper. Because my husband is in the business of working with ticketing for a rock band. Although he does try to come up with ways to thwart scalpers. So we have something in common. He does not complain about scalping very much. I think it is just a matter of supply-and-demand. Kind of like the auction site ebay. I had no idea you could go to prison for that, though. Anyway, I liked your piece. It was well written and philosophical. I used to believe in karma, as a practicing Buddhist. Now I think it is true that by our beliefs, we see them take shape in the world. So in an ironic way, we believe our beliefs are true because they come to pass. But if we didn't have that belief...we would not see it in the world. So I am all about dropping false beliefs or beliefs that make me feel bad. Because if I have an emotion around a belief, the emotion is trying to tell me it is false. But...we have been trained since birth from our culture, parents and education...that if we feel an emotion, it must be true. We're psychologically reversed. Because in fact, the emotion is trying to tell us to beware of some false belief. Not many people are aware of this reversal, though. Well, nice talking to you. Julie
Hi Johnnie - I hope this finds you doing well as can be expected. This is Diane (Sissys friend) and just want to let you know the real truth. Sissys letter that she has sent displayed some harsh words concerning you two but please believe me she did not mean a one of them and feels terrible for getting so upset. She does love you very much she is just tremendously hurt right now. There has been endless hours of crying, being in the hospital and mental issues trying to figure out what happened between the two of you. If this situation has anything to do with Layne I can guarantee you the only thing between them two is finicial support ONLY. You are the love of her life and have always been as when Sissy had happier time I would always tease her about you two little lovebirds. It was too cute - like she was 18 all over again with giddiness and love for you. I am not here to cause you any problem but could you please find a way of telling her so maybe in time she will at least have an understanding as to what happened between you two. If you would feel comfortable you are more than welcome to explain to me if that would help you in any way. Whatever I can do to help as I am not writing this to cause you any pain or grief - Merely concerned about the both of you. I hope this isn't a repeat letter as I don't know if my first letter went through so I re-wrote you. Sissy truely~truely LOVES YOU. Please let her try and find some peace is you are wanting to end this relationship. I will let you go and God Bless you Johnnie - May you find peace and happiness within yourself.
I saw your Comment on Between the Bars asking me to write to you via snail mail, and I am sorry to have to tell you that I will not be doing so, as mentioned in earlier comments.

Hey Robby...Sorry I haven't written in a while but my life has been crazy. I lost my password for this site so I had to set up a new account. I've just been busy with work and yes I did move back in with my Mom and Dad. I'm originally from Johnstown,Pa so I'm familiar were Huntingdon is. I didn't move to Sellersville area until I was about 9 or so but I've been back to J-town thoughout the years. I read the comment of the other guy and all I gotta say about that is...WHAT A DICK! I mean seriously...He has to write you and say nasty shit!??? What a Loser! He say's he's the "FRIEND" of the guy you supposedly killed? He was probably his "BUTT-BUDDY" that's why he's probably so pissed! Lol... Anyway's I feel for ya being locked up with all those dickhead security guards! They're just assholes cause they couldn't be real cops! So don't let them bring you down... O' the "J" is for my last Name. I'm not married but I don't like to put my last name on the internet cause sometimes weirdo's read these things then they try an find you on facebook or google+ and start sending you (ME) all kinds of peverted shit! I have had a few sicko's do that before and had to have my brother beat the shit outta them to get them to leave me alone. Actually my brother did like 3 years at S.C.I. Somerset for aggravated assault for beating up some asshole who was stalking me on line.He was from Levittown and kept sending me pics of himself nude and he was like 50 yrs old and discusting. I was going to call th cops but I told my brother first and he got the guys adresse and went to his house and fucked him up! I felt bad cause m brother had to go to jail just cause he was protecting me. But the asshole cops actually stuck up for the weirdo saying shit like " even though he did that...he still has rights and that dosen't give your brother the right to attack and hurt him"! That just made me hate cops even more! Lol... but try and keep your head up...I don't have any old pics from my elementry years but I have a bunch on my phone. I just have to take my S.D,Card out and take it to a drug store and get some printed. Hopefully I can do this soon and I'll get a few pics in the mail to you ok....I really feel for Krista. I xan't immagine what she must be going through. And that's messed up that guy showed her your charges off the internet. He had no right to do that! Can you get conginal visits? If so??? Ever think of getting married??? "Hint Hint" your really hot! Yummy!!! :) I'll get pics in the mail soon! Ttyl8r...Heather J......

Oh yeah...today was a day of change. The one thing I promised several years ago I promised I wouldn't do. I managed to do it a little while ago.I cut my hair off.As far as I know you dont give a shit about me or that. This is all your fault. Even though I dont like you..I just dont like you. I really, really never did. It was just a game. Do not ever try to contact me again. I have nothing for you .
Hey Joe, I have thought about you over the years and just decided it was time to send you a note. Hope you are OK. I will write to you again. You were my 1970's friend, and I never forgot you.
