So you got permission for a bigger cell then! LOL


Heh. Took a tour of the submarine USS Growler last week in NY, we
commented on how hard it would be to live in such cramped quarters for
months on end without seeing the sun. The guy in front of me quipped:
"I just got out of prison after 6 years. When the judge handed out
sentence I said 'But I'll never last for more than a few months without
going crazy', and he replied 'Don't worry, just get through the first
few months and I'll help you with the rest' ". (Well it was funny at
the time while climbing through the bulkhead...)
