RE: Ad-Seg Update (post)

Greetings.
Another day away from the SHU. Though it feels like I'm still there though. This place really was made to imitate the SHU cells. Only they put a small unimportant and useless window on the ceiling. I look at it and wonder why it was placed there. If it was right in the middle of the cell it might make a difference not much but a little. The SHU cells have no windows period. But a large skylight out on the tier. I think inmates rarely noticed it. This place has a desk made of cement like the beds. It's a little hard to f=get use to because you must stand to use it. I think it is more for the upper bunk, so a guy can use it to step up. These cells are not painted, where the SHU cells are all kept freshly painted. You can even request to have it repainted if it looks tore up. I was reading the prison focus newsletter that the SHU up at the bay is starting to get ragged. The plumbing is bad. The food is getting bad again. That's too bad after all the progress to get changes and for things to go backward. But it's got to be more to do with who is working there. If you have assholes who don't give a crap and think they can do whatever then that's when the problems start. There's guards like that everywhere and the ones that always cause many of the lawsuits. Today is a different time. We have learned the law and will take them fools to court quick. I am in the process of doing just that. There's an asshole here that tells inmates that they better not file grievances against him or he will not give them their property. That crap may work on these young inmates but it don't mean squat to me. I will challenge it in court and I'm kind of bored anyways so I will start putting pressure on that fool and his supervisors. Inmates have a right to appeal anything that is affecting them adversely.

Changing subjects. I have been getting some color back on me. The sunshine has been good for me. I just hope that I don't get skin cancer from too much sun too fast too soon.

Okay it's getting close to dinner time so I'll close here. Respect
