Rebuttal to comments) RE:"How much is enough"?

Posted on July 30, 2009 at 2:00pm 2 Comments

Thanks for your comments on my Blog. I guess in some ways, i am a bit more sensitive to his side of it, in that, i lost my dad this past November who died at 82 while in prison. And i have a young nephew currently in prison. Both clearly deserved to be there for the things they did and the bad choices they made. But while my dad did come to recognize his mistakes and was trying to make amends,my nephew will likely spend more time than he was sentenced to due to his bucking the system in there.… Continue

How much is enough?

I have a friend who was recently dismissed from his fire dept for being on parole. His Chief knew from the start, of his past trouble, a felony conviction from over twenty years ago.

This man served with honor, courage, and distinction as a firefighter, and was never late, never a problem,… Continue

"I'm baptising Muffin" he replied. "But cats don't like water" she said. "Then he shouldn't have… Continue

"Life Can Be Funny Sometimes..."



A man is homeless, unemployed, feeling depressed & Hopeless.

As he enters the club, he sees a sign that reads: "Open mike night for amatures 7-9pm nightly." After watching several comedians on stage, he thinks, "Hey! I can do that!" And decides to give it a try. He… Continue

"An Editorial Comment By: B.A. Ellis..."



Upon careful review of the newspaper last evening, I noted that there were no less than twenty obituaries listed therein. That in and of it's self is of no reason to be a major concern to me, in that, I knew none of these persons who were listed there as having died. What does concern me though, is that I am beginning to sense a pattern developing, A pattern that I find to be quite a bit distirbing in the grand scheme of things! When one stops… Continue

Thanks for the add.

I've actually heard similar comments from people both male and female and have returned from the "system". I teach for a criminal justice program at a local college, and help put some of those zitfaced 20 year olds there to watch the cons.
