I just learned that I will have to go to the North Fork Correctional Facility in Sayre, Oklahoma in May.


I will be there for a few hours for a deposition. I am hoping there will not be a riot while I am there.

I wonder if they will have wireless internet available. If so, I will try to post from there (unless that is a violation of some law ;) ).


Have you ever been in a prison (other than Alcatraz), either as a "guest" or a visitor? What is it like?

5/12/10 EDIT: I leave tomorrow. I know nothing of Oklahoma geography.

Have there been tornados between OKC and Sayre where I will be driving on Friday?

I've never been in one. I did have a dream that I had to go once though, it was actually quite freaky. First I had to attend a court session within the jail building, followed by the sentancing. I woke up before the sentancing though.

Nope, never been inside a prison in my entire life for any reason.

I have been deposed (in a private law firm) and given testimony in front of a judge and jury in a court of law though.

Been to a few prisons and a couple jails, it's not a pleasant experience.

I was at the OLD Mansfield State prison in Mansfield, OH, which is the building they used for filming Shawshank Redemption

Didnt go inside, just saw it from outside, its a pretty sweet building.

please say hello to zanejohnson for the rest of us at ATOT.

Also, it might be nice to update Ilovetruenos on the online Bulk Beef front (the search continues)

How about an AT&T connection for my iPhone?

There's like, NO AT&T service out near sayre/weatherford. You may get 1/2 bars in and out as long as you're outside but it's far from reliable. Apparently its about only alltel out there
