Yeah... well, not quite 5 years yet straight... in January it will be 5 straight - THIS TIME. I may go a little over 5 though, trying to get out and about, shouldn't be too much longer.

It's not as bad as it sounds, it used to mess with my head at first, drive ya crazy... but now truthfully, I don't even have the time to do all that I want to do. Sounds crazy, huh? I just read and study so much stuff... histories (secular, religious, military), philosophy, politics, etc... between that and workouts, man, these months seem to fly by. The last two years actually just blurred on by. Weeks and months go by without me ever leaving the cell or seeing daylight... and it doesn't even bother me any more.

Guess you can find peace and contentment anywhere... or rage and bitterness too for that matter. I always trip out when I read people in the world that have beautiful wives, kids, jobs, houses, etc, all that stuff, and not only are they not happy but they go ballistic, kill the wife, themselves, all that.

Then the reverse is also true... like Timothy McVeigh when asked about his confinement said one time, "I sit back in the air conditioning and watch cable TV all day long... you call this punishment? Either way the wind blows don't make a damn to me...", waived all the appeals and told 'em to bring it on. Guess you can cope anywhere with God and a will to cope...
