In Colorado, the Times are Tough

"How tough are they?" you oblige. Things are so tough that paroled criminals are returning to jail asking to be locked back up. There's no work anyway, so some folks are deciding that a roof over their heads and three squares a day is worth the limited freedom.

Well, if my luck doesn't change for the better soon, I may have to see about having my parole revoked. No matter that I've never been accused of a crime much less convicted, sentenced, and paroled. I'm sure the red tape is so tightly wound that it would be weeks before they realized I wasn't supposed to be there. Of course, that same red tape might make it tough to get out if I tired of my living arrangements.
