I am currently enrolled in a college extension programme being offered by Patten College of Oakland, CA. here at the prison.  I am working on a Theology major, and I am enjoying the process.   I just wish the programme had become available much sooner than it did, it is very recent.     I enjoy corresponding with all sorts of people, religion (or lack thereof), race, gender, or age does NOT matter.  Letters, for me, are very important as a lifeline to the outside world and it always brightens my day to get a letter at mail call! I enjoy music, before coming to prison I was an amateur musician.  I started playing my first musical instrument in the third grade, a Trumpet, later picking up other instruments in the Brass and Woodwinds sections of the orchestra.  I continued to play until I joined the American Army in 1983.
Although the prison severely limits the number of audio cassettes we can have to twelve, (we aren't permitted CDs at all) I have cassettes from such varied artists as Sheryl Crow, Quiet Riot, Foreigner, and Don Henley.  My favourite song of all time is "Hotel California" by the Eagles. I also draw, when I have time.  I am something of a self taught cartoonist and
have recently even created my own original character, the "Sage", based upon
a 19th Century Eastern European Rabbi.
There is only one rule to correspondence with me, I cannot on the advice of my attorneys discuss any details related to the case I currently have on appeal. Any questions regarding this information can be addressed directly to my attorneys'  I will provide the address of my attorneys freely upon anyone'e request.  I do not personally enjoy this muzzle, but this is a fight for my life, and I have to trust the advice of my attorneys.
I'm sorry, but, that is just the way that it is.     Anything else, is open for discussion.  You want to talk about anything ranging from music to motorcycles, and it is fine with me. However, for us to discusss anything, it means you first have to write a letter :-) so it is now up to you, if you write, I will respond.    I will be awaiting your letter at mail call ! I will leave you with a lymric that I learned as a child, and I was reminded of when presented with this opportunity, "Opportunity knocks but once, then comes again no more.  Temptation bangs and pounds till it smashes in your door!"             See ya!
