After a month of wrestling with his local parole office over his address, my coworker finally left this morning to be released tomorrow morning. His steps to his mother's car will be his first outside in nineteen years. Yes, he has been incarcerated during the Gulf War; OJ's "innocence"; Clinton's impeachment hearings; the rise of the Internet; 9/11, Playstations 1, 2 and 3; iMac, iPod, and iPhone. The world is a much different place then when he left it. I hope he finds a guide who will show him a safe and successful path through his foreign lands.
