    Goodness!  That Is a Very Good Question... That part doesn't surprise me but it is a question I had never thought of.

    I don't see why not.  If they aren't allowed, it is a subject and law that needs to be addressed...

    Immediately!

    I think they’ve found a way around all of the red tape:

    A partial picture of the Heimlich maneuver, right?

  • Ahh yes.  Dropping the soap.  A boldly flirtatious and romantic gesture.  LOL!

    I was thinking he might be involved with someone who is in trouble with the law. He might visiting the prison, not being visited in prison. Our TD would never be naughty, but I suspect he likes bad boys.

    Twinkle Dink~ I love you so much there is no way you would ever go to prison.  I'd protest and tell them to take me instead.  They might eat you alive in there.  
    I can work magic so that we never have to think of such a travesty!

      Wait, what?  Folks, have you heard that Merlin is going to be locked up in prison?  I have to log off of here immediately and get over to the warden’s office so that I’ll be the first one to sign up for her conjugal visit list!  (If I wait too long, she’ll be all augured out by the time my name is called.)

    I know you mean this from the tip of your head all the way through.  Your kindness tickles me, no end. ;)
    I think Wanda Sykes has a jump on your idea. She isn't my type in a physical way but she is pretty creative in sliding in  just the right slots to get into visits.

  • I'll keep you on retainer as my advocate extraordinaire.
    In the meantime I'll just stay home in the safety of my room
    and watch old episodes of "OZ". 
    I don't wanna get any closer to "locked-up" than that.

    PHEW!  That was a close one!

    I really don't do well when people try to lock me behind bars... well, some bars are o.k.

    As long as you're safe and sound, I'm Happy! Happy!
    :) :).

    (Yeah, I was an extra in "The Shawshank Redemption" movie  - that's the closest I'd want to be in prison, too.)

    Oh my GOD. I have a friend that is a movie star.  Did they pay you?  

    I think I know who you were. You were that guy that looked like a young Richard Widmark.

    Ha!
    :)
    :)

    That's sort of interesting- - I don't know where you found this picture but I see a resemblance even at that young age! 


    Yeah, I got paid. I'm hardly a star, though. BUT a prison movie ain't no prison movie without prisoners walking around everywhere. Somebody has to do it. 
    :)

    Hey, maybe you're right -- it must be my potential star quality that gives that movie its strength.

    Thanks!
    It was a fun experience.
    :)

    EDIT: especially since the film's attained such a big audience and appeal.

    I don't think anyone needs to be allowed conjugal visits while in prison. I NEVER got that one.  


    THEY ARE IN PRISON.   WHAT ELSE?  Do they get pets too?   How about multiple partners?  

    Guilty or not, this is PRISON.  Sex is not something you NEED to survive.  It is something that is costly and allows for escape.  For what?  So the prisoners can get their cookies off?  NO.  SORRY.  THIS IS PRISON.
