Speaking of being trapped for an extended time, I have a friend who is in jail since last week and likes it. He's made friends, the food is ok and he's comfortable.
His family is not posting bail for him because they fear they'll be responsible for him and his alcoholic condition.
He was arrested while having a delusion one night that someone was coming to kill him. He jumped put a second story window, ran to the nearest house and begged to be let in. Frantic that his death was imminent, he broke through a window. The woman had called the police and just as he was trying to get in they apprehended him (to his relief).

He loves it there. He has his own bathroom and he's making friends, He's also well liked. I don't get it?!
It's "jail" not the student union.

He said the food is good and you eat three times a day plus a snack! He loves not working and it's stress free. His cell is an end unit with southern exposure! WTF!
I'm busting my ass trying to make a living ....

Yeah, but is there a bottle of vodka by the dive shack?

And do they impose a limit on the number of towels he can have at any given time?

Post by innit Geezer on Oct 13, 2010 11:12:26 GMT -6
No vodka there, that's the tough part for him. Towels are available fresh daily but I'm not sure on the limits, I'd think there would be.
Visitations are limited to 2 people at a time for a restricted amount of time. (I wish I could implement that policy on some of my own relatives)

They should transfer him to AZ into Sherriff Joe Arpaio's tent prision. Burns my ass that prisioner get better food, shelter, health care, cable and educational tools when so many working families don't get all that.

I'm busting my ass trying to make a living .... Do they have room for more of us? Yes but given the dire condtion of NYS financeses, please behave yourself when visting New York. And smoking cigars while sporting a comfy bra isn't a step in the right direction. IMHO

The woman who's house was broken into isn't pressing charges but my friend is still locked up. I'm glad all this is several counties from here. He looks similar to me and who needs an evil twin. Remember Herman Munsters cousin Charlie? He caused havic for Herman.

If you could see a better photo of him, the bolts on the neck are difficult to miss.
(And thank you for correcting his spelling of "havoc" -- it was getting to me, too)

To claim to be so comfortable in jail? I'm worried for him but his family thinks it's a good place to dry out. The conditions he described are similar to H2. Passable/OK/good food, friends/cordial people and halfway decent bathroom. The only thing missing is a massage menu and a hot-tub for 500 inmates.

UPDATE -- He's living at his fathers home and spending his days watching TV. At 51 he's broke, unemployed and where he was at 17, very sad. My father fears for the safety of his father.
Modified to correct:
My father is afraid for my friends father, because he's gotten physical one time during a drinking binge.
