Re: HEY EVERYONE!!
Ummm... you'll just waste money on postage. Here's my original post entry(from MySpace):
Hey everyone!! Do you want to make a positive impact in someone's life? Someone who needs it more than anything? Get a prison pen pal!!
I am taking on this cause because of my friends and family members in prison. Sure, prisoners may have made a mistake in the past, but who among us has not? I know that if it weren't for luck, two quick feet and a quicker intellect I personally would be behind bars right now. Though we need to hold people accountable for their actions, people on the inside deserve interaction with others. Writing one letter to someone on the inside will take but a moment of your time and you will get to intereact with someone who desperately needs it. Make the world a better place!! Make a new friend!! Face your fears and interact with the whole world, not just the sheltered existence that you cling to with all your might. I guarantee you that your own problems will be put into perspective!!!
GRIND ON!!

Re: HEY EVERYONE!!
To be honest brother, you saw us on something of an off-night. Last DFHY show we played was an underground garage show in a slum of LA with 300 kids showing up to see us!! It was insane!! There was a big fight at the end and I got punched in the head because I can't let a fight pass me up when I'm drunk!!

Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong.

Re: HEY EVERYONE!!
Ace, it's nice to see that you are compassionate enough to look beyond the exterior of those in prison and to want to reach out to them in this way. However, I am not in your league when it comes to compassion. Having lost a dear friend(ex girlfriend) to a murderous prick, six years ago, I would find it difficult to become a pen pal with a prisoner.
I did volunteer work at Halawa State Pen in Hawaii back in the 80's on a literacy program for a period of eight months. I met a few guys in there who "appreared" to be decent men that made a few mistakes until I realized that the nice guy routine was just that...a gimmick. These guys were using the program as another way to attempt smuggling stuff into the prison. My cute white ass being their mule of preference. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Their threats against my family for refusal were as transparent as their desire to better themselves. These men were the rule, not the exception.
Ace, if you can do it and are able to better someones day, more power to you. [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img] I'm jaded by my experience I suppose.Tarbaby Fraser.
