Shining Light...

You are asking yourself what this title has to do with anything...well, it is to shine some light on a few things...

Light one - I HAVE THE WORSE LUCK EVER! I need to be working on my paper right now...but, alas, I am not due to an unexpected server problem. As it turns out, the server that runs the vista site (where I do all of my class work) was taken down by a freak power outage. QUESTION - Why do they not have a generator or backup power source? HELLO...we all have work to do. In fact, it is due on Christmas day and I am not finished. I am going to now have to work on this tomorrow and Friday from the big B. I refuse to actually do homework on Christmas Eve or Day!

Light two - There is someone in my office that is slimey and gross. They lie, backstab, cut throat and snoop around. I do not like them and they give me the willies! I do not feel comfy around them. I wish they would take up with all other employees and go a head and find new employeement. It is obvious that I won't be doing that for a while.

Light three - For all of you who also read Mookie's blog, I feel the need to expand upon the paper mache weapons post. This is true. Prisoners can in fact make weapons out of toilet paper. And, yes, they can stab into the body. Also, this same toilet paper can be made into rope...heavy enough to hang wet clothing - and bodies as some prisoners make toilet paper ropes to hang themselves. Some are trying to kill themselves (these are the prisoners who put large knots on each side of the adams apple) and some just want to get out if their cell for a while. This same rope can be used to escape and then prisoners burn the rope behind them. Now, lets put this in context - each cell is issued a roll of toilet paper at a time - only one. In order to get new toilet paper, the prisoners have to turn in the cardboard roll in exchange for a full roll of toilet paper. Also, the prisons have a formula that tells them about how often each cell should go through a roll. With this in mind, can you imagine how long it would take to make a toilet paper rope? I guess they have the time!

Hey everyone - have a great Christmas...and New Year if I miss you between now and then!
