If you're having any doubt as to whether you should check out my blog, let me share with you some of the quoted opinions other readers have left after they took the time to visit: "... extremely interesting."; "... very well presented & entertaining,"; "You should write a book."; "You have a knack of completely keeping in touch with how the average guy would react."; "... found your honesty & openness very refreshing & enjoyable."

Naturally, I can't please everybody and, as you just read, I am honest & open. So to be fair, let's check out a few other opinionated quotes with a different point of view: "He should not even have the right to have a blog."; "The best place he could ever be on this planet is where he rots right now."; "... the only right he should have left is to communicate with his creator."

If what my previous readers have to say about me doesn't spark some interest, then please allow me to share a little more from a typical aspect. I'm 48 years old, and have spent the last 17 of them here in prison. I have no wife, no children, and no release date. My major highlight in life is sharing with individuals, in a humorous way, what prison life is like for someone who has been labeled as: "Non Typical Prison Material."

So if you think your opinion means something, or you just feel like reading some interesting aspects of prison life, scroll on down to have a view of the articles my previous readers have so much to say about, and feel free to leave any comments or ask any questions.

Hi Eric,
I am sorry that I did not write you back. I meant to, you’re letter is on my nightstand and I see it and think “I should write him back” and then never did. I’m sorry for that.
You wrote a letter back in October that ended up on my desk. I was the Store Manager at the Bushnell Walmart. You were requesting an order form for a book. I ordered the book (it was a sign language book) on Amazon and attempted to mail it to you. I sent it to one address and it ended up back at my store and on my desk. So I then attempted to mail it to the other address on the letter. One was a physical address and one was a PO Box. I ended up getting the envelope back but no book. The envelope was opened, I have no idea where the book ended up at.
In between these 2 attempts, I had made the very hard choice to step down at work. That is why I used my home address the second time.
I am sorry to have left you wondering all of this time.
I am not sure how this works and if you will be able to write me back. I received your letter tonight when I got home and am obviously much faster at replying this way!😊
