not a chance
2 weeks in county jail 1st. Met a heavily tatood Jew who ran the AB on the cell block. Very odd. My buddy. Then 90 days in hell. Not any faster than anticipated, simply needed to endure it.

Sorry.
So you're done, or do you have 3 more months elsewhere? (Your post wasn't clear.).
Hang in there either way.
Cheers, Scott.

Home now
Just out of a 3 month "rehab" (communist reeducation camp). The director was Mr nice guy for 2.5 months. He took over the program about 4 months ago, total revamp, the previous guys were hard core TC model (screamers). But he needed to kill off the cigarette smoking. And those fucking addicts were not cooperating. And the snuff as well. So the nicotine tests started last week, and the bloodbath is currently in process. Guys are going to jail for testing positive for nicotine. No more Mr nice guy. Good thing my whole shtick is I'm not an addict, I'm someone who simply didn't follow rules and now I am no longer willing to risk the consequences, so I quit smoking when I went to jail and did not pick it back up in rehab. Which also means it took a month for them to figure out I should not be there, but the judge said min 90 days so they kept me. For 91 days. They could have held on to me for another 3 months, getting $2k a day for me. The court thought I was released yesterday. I wasn't. I found out about it last night. I gave a heartfelt double middle finger to the security camera. 3 people including the director saw it in real time. called the facility, had a person track me down to ask what was wrong. Railing at the gods I said. He brought it up today, playing around with the thought of keeping me longer or sending me back to jail rather than releasing me on schedule. He loved to fuck with people. His job is to create high stress situations and judge your response. Every session they had is designed to break through denial so people are willing to accept help to become new people. I broke them before they broke me. Now I have 3-5 years of dealing with these people, drug and alcohol tests 3 times a week, AA/NA meetings (gotta get a sheet signed), weekly court, Intensive Outpatient Therapy (IOP) 3 times a week with 3 hour sessions for 3-6 months, probation visits, etc.

Wow. :-(
I broke them before they broke me. I think we would have predicted that. :-D Stay strong. Best of luck. Cheers, Scott.

Synchronicity..
Thought.. a couple times, and today: Hmmm, should be about time? for the beneficent-form of crazy-as-Noun to surface. (Probably just normal quantum tunneling via convenient worm-holes, as consciousness ever plays close to the vest.)
Congrats on a successful nullo illegitimti carborundum episode. (I trust that all cohorts have since learned to be very careful with matches :-) All you missed internationally (and locally) was the std routine, sliding down the slippery slopes, learning how to become happy bottom-feeders.
Take care.
PS: today ~ a million marched to celebrate their liberation by the Red Army, 70 years ago, from Auschwitz (built under that prototype of Homeland Security ..only slightly less subtle.) Maybe we'll see a '15 Red Army in action again? ... depending.. Stories on NPR just now. Ta

He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother. Good luck, lad. cordially,

And yes, it is just like that. Actually, worse. I am sentenced to about 20 hours per week of religious indoctrination. It is actually illegal in about 1/2 the country (2 state supreme courts, multiple federal regions), but not here.

USSC time.
*THAT* is clearly cruel and unusual punishment even in the dis-US, in 2015. Beyond absurd, it's ludicrous. ("A coerced oath is invalid on its face" --Ernst Cantorowicz (sp?) in response to McCarthy era oaths, on behalf of UC Berkeley profs.)
Penguin test redux: All stand on ice cliff rim, flapping winglets furiously; one finally falls into sea. All watch to see if a shark gets him: to plunge or not to plunge (-in.)
ACLU? (obviously you need insulation or: they're apt to add-on genuflection exercises.)

not gonna push it
If I piss off the judge (who is a true believer) I go away for 10 years. A lawyer would need someone with "standing" to bring the case, and it won't be me.
In each case the states lost and tried to appeal to the USSC, but the USSC refused to hear it, letting the ruling stand at the lower level. This was good for the people fighting, but bad for me since it did not set a countrywide precedent.
