I got a dewey in the late eighties and they gave me three weekends in jail.
Man it sucked turning yourself in every friday night.

I'd slip 15 to 20 smokes and individual paper matches and the striker into the lining of my jacket and bartered them for desserts.

The last weekend I didnt do it and they searched all of us thoroughly.

Gosh I am so glad that we all straightened ourselves out.. some people will never see the real world for the rest of their lives.

Getting married was the prime reason I straightened up my act.
I wouldnt be able to stand the guilt of going to prison and leaving the wife with a house note she couldnt afford.


Heck my wife used to complain I got myself thrown in jail for a vacation from her..


Which she was right...

I sure dont miss those baloney sandwiches they handed out while in processing.
I'd collect the ones people tossed on the floor and use em as a pillow...
Barter tools....

I guess they could be considered the penny in the Jail monetary system.
 
I will never know how that dude got the cocaine in..


But it was funny I had a black cell mate stand outside the cell door watching for guards..while I got high as all hell :)

Good times even when your locked up :)

Baloney sandwiches?

They were a damn luxury where we grew up in jail..


Try damn disgusting bean soup in south Carolina..

Where I worked offenders traded all sorts of commodities for all sorts of things even though it was against the rules.

These things were pretty nasty.
Stale bread and dried out piece of baloney and a pack of mustard and a cup of coffee that resembled ditch water but with less flavor.

Most people didnt want them since they knew they'd get a tray meal in a few hours.

I remember guys in cook county would heat their baloney over light bulbs before eating it and the stale bread?

Like someone posted perfect for moonshine.

They would use the "hot water pot" to heat up all kinds of things.

In my cell block we had a special tolliete where they would burn milk cartons to make a fire and heat up food.

Open fires were a major violation. All sorts of trouble would descend on them.

My cell block was like a hotel 6, in cook county jail..


I think it was 30 cells a community area , the showers , the 10 toliettes and 3 men to a cell..

One television .
 
Commissary day!!!


Who remembers that in jail?

I was never in long enough to get commissary.
But it was like Christmas for the long termers.


It came once a week, like I always said 30 days in jail feels like 30 years..its so damn boring..

All I did was sit around and read and sleep as much as possible.


The guards would make us go to the yard play basketball, take us to the gym, take us up to the reck room and shoot pool and stuff..

Of course if the guards aren't doing their job, anything can go on and usually does.

They treated us weekenders a little different.
They'd get us to our cellblock on Friday night and leave us alone till Sunday evening when we were out processed.
