MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA– TO THOSE OF YOU NOT FAMILIAR WITH JOE ARPAIO – HE IS THE MARICOPACOUNTYSHERIFF AND HE KEEPS GETTING ELECTED OVER AND OVER.
THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY:
Sheriff Joe Arpaio (in Arizona) who created the “tent city jail”:
He has jail meals down to 40 cents a serving and charges the inmatesforthem.
He stopped smoking and porno magazines in the jails. Took away theirweights. Cut off all but “G” movies.
He started chain gangs so the inmates could do free work on county andcityprojects.
Then he started chain gangs for women so he wouldn’t get sued fordiscrimination.
He took away cable TV until he found out there was a federal courtorderthat required cable TV for jails. So he hooked up the cable TV againonlylet in the Disney channel and the weather channel.
When asked why the weather channel he replied, so they will know howhotit’s gonna be while they are working on my chain gangs.
He cut off coffee since it has zero nutritional value.
When the inmates complained, he told them, “This isn’t theRitz/Carlton.Ifyou don’t like it, don’t come back.”
He bought Newt Gingrich’ lecture series on videotape that he pipes intothejails.
When asked by a reporter if he had any lecture series by a Democrat, hereplied that a democratic lecture series might explain why a lot of theinmates were in his jails in the first place.
More on the Arizona Sheriff:
With temperatures being even hotter than usual in Phoenix (116 degreesjustset a new record), the Associated Press reports: About 2,000 inmateslivingin a barbed-wire-surrounded tent encampment at the Maricopa County Jailhave been given permission to strip down to their government-issuedpinkboxer shorts.
On Wednesday, hundreds of men wearing boxers were either curled up ontheirbunk beds or chatted in the tents, which reached 138 degrees inside theweek before.
Many were also swathed in wet, pink towels as sweat collected on theirchests and dripped down to their pink socks.
“It feels like we are in a furnace,” said James Zanzot, an inmate whohaslived in the tents for 1 ? years. “It’s inhumane.”
Joe Arpaio, the tough-guy sheriff who created the tent city and longagostarted making his prisoners wear pink, and eat bologna sandwiches, isnotone bit sympathetic. He said Wednesday that he told all of the inmates:”It’s 120 degrees in Iraq and our soldiers are living in tents too, andthey have to wear full battle gear, but they didn’t commit any crimes,soshut your damned mouths!”
Way to go, Sheriff! Maybe if all prisons were like this one there wouldbea lot less crime and/or repeat offenders. Criminals should be punishedfortheir crimes – not live in luxury until it’s time for their parole,onlytogo out and commit another crime so they can get back in to live ontaxpayers money and enjoy things taxpayers can’t afford to have forthemselves.
If you agree, pass this on. If not, delete it

Tim Allen, comedian, had this to say about Martha Stewart:–
“Boy, I feel safer now that she’s behind bars. O.J. & Kobe are walking around; Osama Bin Laden too, but they take the one woman in America willing to cook, clean, and work in the yard, and haul her butt to jail.”

I have just found out that me and my girlfriendKathy will be expecting a new bundle of joy in the year to come. Sunday shetook a home pregancy test and it was positive and today she took an”offical” test at the Doctors office. This caught us both off gaurd and itsgonna be tough finacialy on both of us.

LEMON DROP MARTINI TIME–I made it! Finished the news before midnight on 1-28-05. What a gal!
So as I said before, Bandit will be in Cincinnati all weekend and I?m gonna partay- paint party that is. Next week the carpet will be installed and life as a functional person will begin for me. No more working in the livingroom. No more living out of boxes, at least for office stuff that is. Our bedroom is another story. Another dusty story.
I hope you all have a great weekend and thanks for being so patient with me while I stumble along trying to walk in Bandit?s shoes. No one could ever replace the old guy, but me and the gals are just grateful that you all still come back week after week showing your support.
Take care, Layla
