A Federal Prison Activity Bag
It's not likely that Bernard Madoff will spend all 150 years of his sentence in prison, but the time that he does spend there will be highly structured with lengthy stretches of solitude. There is plenty of advice available regarding how he might survive in the environment he is entering.
There's even a business called "Wall Street Prison Consultants", designed to cater to the needs and answer the question of inmates to be who were white collar titans and never thought they would face time in an actual Federal lock up. I wish I had invented this idea for its comic cynicism, but it is shockingly real.
The chances of Madoff running his own investment club inside the prison are slim,

jimmy choo, exercise, and even network with other prisoners, if he chooses. Some inmates learn new skills like painting. He can write and receive letters, make limited phone calls for 25 cents a minute, and it is possible he will have access to email, although his messages can be monitored.
I already know that some Trial Balloon readers would be untroubled by the e mail limit,
juicy couture outlet, the TV limit, and no access to the internet. And the idea that you could get a lot of reading done is . well . an intriguing perk, if you are a bookish sort.
But remember, you're carrying a lot of guilt around,
longchamp handbags, or at least you say you are. Can a book list express genuine regret? What do you read? Escapist literature, understanding that true escape is impossible? And why should a guy who bilked so many of their life savings be allowed even the brief mental release of a good book when there are so many bad ones to deepen his suffering?
Maybe the court should mandate a reading list chock full of scolding, finger wagging moralists. Tales of the unjustly fleeced? The bleakest, most boring books ever written?
The ideal punishment would be to saddle the prisoner with volumes that read like a sledge hammer breaks boulders slowly, with lots of dust and pain.
A long time ago I struggled with the sheer magnitude of Moby Dick,
gucci, but if I had 150 years' worth of empty afternoons,
celine bags, a nice cement floor to sit on and some lukewarm water to sip from a dented tin cup, perhaps I could find a bit of enjoyment in Melville's wordy tale. Or, by the time I got done, I might feel that I had suffered for my crimes.
How about you? What's in your Federal Prison Activity Bag?
Bernie's troubles began in elementary school (because he obviously didn't get the message back then). The books he REALLY needs are simple,
marc by marc jacobs, easy to read and just weren't available when he was a kid. The Berenstain Bears books each one with a plot line that has a character just like him who gets into trouble, but with help from Ma and Pop learns his lesson and does right in the end. Here are but a few of the 125 available:
Berenstain Bears Get the Gimmes
Berenstain Bears and the Bad Influence
Berenstain Bears and the Golden Rule
Berenstain Bears and the Bad Habit
Berenstain Bears' Trouble with Money
Berenstain Bears and the Truth
Berenstain Bears and the Green Eyed Monster

There's a story that FDR used to tell about New York Governor Al Smith. He was addressing the inmates of Sing Sing prison and,

nike factory, he absent mindedly started his speech by saying, "My fellow citizens." The prisoners, having had their rights as citizens revoked started laughing at him. Smith caught his mistake,

This brought more laughter and he finally started his speech a third time with, "Well, I'm glad to see so many of you could make it here today." I always think of this when I hear about 'white collar crime.' It wasn't all that long ago that there wasn't the kind of discrepency we see today.

I can think of some economics texts that rank among the worst punishment I ever had to endure,
airmax, but Bernie might actually enjoy them. Organic chemistry works for me,
oakley, though, especially with a quiz every morning.
Now let's assume that Bernie has a "roommate", a really big guy who has a guitar and can sing, a little. Bubba only knows a handful of songs,
nike free trainer 5.0, and he sings them over and over. What songs should we teach Bubba? My first vote goes to "Muskrat Love,
beats by dr. dre," followed by "The Eensy Weensy Spider."
