Finally a good use for the bible! Wpg Free Press Jan 21, 2005:
"THE Bible is the hottest read at Headingley jail these days.
Unfortunately, it's because the inmates are using the Good Book's pages to roll cigarettes.
Staff and clergy at Headingley Correctional Centre are trying to get prisoners to stop the practice after dozens of Bibles were defaced and destroyed by inmates who use the thin pages to roll and smoke homemade, uh, cell-made cigarettes.
Prison staff have begun to confiscate all the Bibles distributed to prisoners and are keeping track of who has them and who's defacing them."
Apparently the inmates are mixing tea leaves with melted nicorette gum and using the pages to roll their stogies!...verrrry creative. I think it is OK, as long as they aren't defacing important works of literature, like comic books and such! nyuk nyuk
Not much new here, except that we got more snow...5 cms yesterday. The streets are quite eerie with walls of snow along each side. The city is having a tough time keeping up with the plowing. Its supposed to be quite nice for the next few days so they will have a chance to catch up.
Thanks, Gary for the pics from Cocopah. Thats a good idea putting up a fence in front of your trailer...that way your golf balls can't get past your trailer and into that big field on the other side! And that water tower...what a hazard! Too bad I couldn't be down there...because I am packing!...I'd show you where the bear left the five wood in the buckwheat! Why , I shoot in the low seventies...any hotter and I go home!...why I oughta!
Well, later is good.........and good night to y'all...keep blogging too!
