Prison Love: Hanging on or letting go Well, this seems to be a pretty sensitive subject to talk about today.

Adjusting with a loved one in prison It’s just after 11am here as I sit here blogging… Oh by the way, I feel much better, thanks for the emails. For those that read a couple of my past blogs, you know I was feeling pretty beat-up a few days ago, with a neck ache, headache and kinda down...

Prison On Television Well, we finally got the rain we needed around here, thank goodness for that. However, I worry a bit about California and the fires going on. California is a second home to me, since I used to live in Los Angeles. I actually have many homes, since I was born in New Orleans, and lived...

Prison Writers or Whiners I didn’t think I had to blog this idea out, but apparently it does need to be discussed. On a lot of places regarding prison issues, there are people who try to share their experiences based on what they went through in jail or prison, and even their life after the incarceration...

Today is a big day if one is a sports fan, it is the day of the NFL draft, so as a sports fan I will be watching that throughout the day.
