Gearheads of War

Hello everyone. As most of you know I have been going through a rough time in my life and have to pay my dues for some things I have done. My sentencing was yesterday and I received a 51 month prison sentence to be served in the lowest security possible facility. But I will get to that in a second.

Originally the sentence is 51 months, that is just over 4 years. However, I only have to serve 85% of it. That brings in down to 42 months. On top of that I will be released on supervised release for the last 12 of the 42 months. That brings it down to 30 months. Now here is the kicker. My sister worked in the BOP(Bureau of Prisons) for 6 years and knows the warden where I will serve my sentence. She talked to her and got me a deal that if I agree to teach two classes(Accounting and Data Processing) at the camp that I will be going to that they will knock off another 12 months of my sentence. That brings it down to 18 months.

Not bad considering the circumstances. The camp I will go to is actually pretty nice. I was impressed. If it werent for public outcry about 3 years ago it would still have a bowling alley and movie theater for the inmates. I almost shit myself when I read about that. But anyway I already payed for a TV to be put in my room and they allow you to have a NES or SEGA master system(with only nonviolent games of course). But still...that is pretty good. It cost $200 though and I dont get to keep it or get my money back when I am done. But well worth it for some nestalgic side scrolling platform gameplay while under lock and key. I still have more research to do on it and what to expect but as I said before. This is not nearly as bad I thought it was going to be. I just know I am going to miss putting my daughter to bed every night.

Thanks for all the support Gearheads.

I am out now on voluntary surrender until September as of now so hopefully I can get my box fixed and frag away with some of you before I go.

Peace!
