So were you ordered into a program because of the alcohol bust?
Can you clean your record when you complete a program?
Were you real mindful to not drop the soap in the shower?
Any of the crazies have a vote Hilary tattoo?
Did you get a tattoo?
Did you get to read, watch TV or what?
Did they offer you early release if you signed up for one of the experimental medical programs?

Time is a hard thing to describe. You never know what time it is. The lights are always on, there are no exterior windows, there is always noise, the people who do have watches have watches which you cannot read. You do not know.

Sounds like a casino.

Thanks for all the details, I've never been to a prison or a jail.

BTW, last friday (24th) I pray to God I had my last drink. It's only been 3 days but so far so good. The 4th of July might be a problem, but we'll see when when I get there. Good luck and God bless.

A Tom T. Hall classic 'A Week Inside A Little County Jail'

One time I spent a week inside a little country jail

And I don’t guess I’ll ever live it down

I was sittin’ at a red light when these two men came and got me

And said that I was speeding through their town

Well, they said,tomorrow morning you can see the judge then go.

They let me call one person on the phone

I thought I’d be there overnight so I just called my boss

To tell him I’d be off but not for long

Well, they motioned me inside a cell with seven other guys

One little barred up window in the rear

My cellmates said if they had let me bring some money in

We ought to send the jailer for some beer

Well, I had to pay him double ’cause he was the man in charge

And the jailer’s job was not the best in town

Later on his wife brought hot bologna, eggs and gravy

The first day I was there I turned it down

Well, next morning they just let us sleep but I was up real early

Wonderin’ when I’d get my release

Later on we got more hot bologna, eggs and gravy

And by now I wasn’t quite so hard to please

Two days later when I thought that I had been forgotten

The sheriff came in chewin’ on a straw

He said, where is the guy who thinks that this is indianapolis?

I’d like to talk to him about the law.

Well, I told him who I was and told him I was working steady

And I really should be gettin’ on my way

That part about me bein’ who I was did not impress him

He said, the judge’ll be here any day.

The jailer had a wife and let me tell you she was awful

But she brought that hot bologna every day

And after seven days she got to lookin’ so much better

I asked her if she’d like to run away

The next mornin’ that old judge took every nickel that I had

And he said, son, let this teach you not to race.

The jailer’s wife was smilin’ from the window as I left

In thirty minutes I was out of state

Upon your arrival at the jail, you should have asked for a Koran. Then their treatment of you would have improved considerably. Better catered food from the best restaurants, cable tv, as many rolls of TP that you wanted, visits with the female inmates, private air conditioned cell, etc.
