I bet most of the taxpayers don’t have big plasma tvs so it’s real nice of them to provide one for the prison, huh.

If it weren’t for getting Big Bubba as your cellmate, prison sounds better every day. Big plasma tv, room and board, medical, dental, and all the time to read you could wish for.

I heard they’ll rob any place but a prison for a Hi-Def TV?

That takes some brass ones there!

Hey, that gives me an idea for the southern border! Build a prison along the length of the border that’s easy to get into, but, like parking-lot tire spikes, impossible to get back out of. Free tent city and all you can eat beans (and big fans that blow the foul air back toward Mexico).

Then, once we have them all, we just move into a vacant Mexico; there’s bound to be something worth having down there (oil, silver, fishing, Acapulco).

,,, and a 32" Toshiba, as it happens. New Plymouth's a nice place for a break away - or a break in.
