JM: What types of facilities were available to help pass the time? Ron: THERE WAS A TOILET IN THE CORNER!! AND THERE WAS
A ROPE HANGING FROM THE CEILING! I WAS NOT ALL
THAT SURE WHAT THE ROPE WAS FOR!!! THERE WAS
ALSO WINDOWS WHICH A PERSON COULD HANG FROM ALSO
FOR EXCERCISE!!! mike: Only the rec. yard and it was just a platform
with nothing to do. Brian: They had recreation every couple days. This was
considered a privilege, meaning if the CO's
decided 1 inmates behavior was too bad...they
could take rec away for everybody. They also had
weekly church services, and they also held g.e.d.
courses, if an inmate wanted to better
himself/herself while being incarcerated.
JM: Did you have regular access to the entertainment or was competition fierce? Give details. Ron: NO mike: The only entertainment we had was cards and
books. Brian: The only real entertainment I had was my phone
calls, and reading books. Books were traded and
distributed every couple weeks. To be honest the
drama that inmates cause in jail was plenty of
entertainment. There were also inmates who
received magazines in the mail, so it was also
good to have that connection from the outside.
JM: Did you have a hard time staying in shape while in jail? Ron: NO I WAS NOT THERE FOR LONG ENOUGH TO EVEN THINK
ABOUT EXERCISE!!!D. mike: No, i did push ups and curls regularly. Brian: The diet is much different in jail. Everything was
healthy and low or correct in calories. I actually
lost weight while in jail, and was quite proud of it.
JM: How often did you get to go outside? What did you do outside if you were allowed to? If you were not allowed to go outside what could you do for exercise? Ron: NOT AT ALL, THEY SEEMED QUITE AMUSED BY HOLDING
US INSIDE OF THEIR STINK!!! mike: 1-2 times a week Brian: I personally didn't go outside much at all. But
there were things you could do while in jail. You
could walk laps around the perimeter or even do
push up and sit ups.
JM: Did the jail offer church services? If so, what were they like and when were they held? Ron: YES AS A MATTER OF FACT THEY DID OFFER
PROTECTION FROM THE COPS THAT SELL DRUGS! mike: saterday nights it was a good chuch service. Brian: Yes, the jail offered church services. I didn't
attend any of the services. I have my own
relationship with God in which i prayed and read
the Bible.
