I always wonder what we can learn from these criminal confessions. I knew a guy who went around talking about his druggie past, got booked in all the schools. How about someone who went through life sober and out of jail?

A criminal is going to manipulate his story. I am surprised that anyone is surprised.

I thought I was the only person in the world who ever had that thought. That's an excellent question - why can't we have roll models who do the right thing their entire lives? How come the dreck that overcomes gets our 'romantic notions' all a churn? I wouldn't cross the street to hear some of these stories - or buy a ticket to a movie that shows them, but some guy supposedly actually did it, so it's supposed to be worth the time of day.
