Title: February's Cupid
Post by Iceman on Mar 5^th, 2008, 8:28am

Jonathan is imprisoned in a solitary cell of a prison 'Iron' for over 8 months now, with a bed, toilet, iron doors, small window with iron bars & iron walls. The prison is located in Valentine, Nebraska. Sometimes prisoners receive visitors, and then it's always the same routine. No metal objects are allowed as they go through the metal detector. If they pass, they're allowed to continue to the receiving room. But if visits are scheduled for Saint Valentine's Day, the initial routine is the same but then the visitor continues directly to prisoner's cell, where she can be for the duration of 45 minutes. This is why they call these visits 'February's Cupid', and you can guess what they're usually doing in there. The former warden named it so, because the civil engineer who made prison's sketch was also a champion in modern competitive target archery. When time's up or the visitor knocks before that, the guard opens the door and escorts her to the exit. This isn't a maximum security prison, as some of the rules are pretty flexible. The guards are relaxed, but they're not stupid.

One day Jonathan receives a visit from Belinda, who says that she's his knocked up girlfriend. After passing through the metal detector, she enters Jonathan's cell, and leaves 20 minutes later. Tomorrow morning, at counting, they find out that Jonathan escaped, even though the iron bars were undamaged. Because of it, the warden canceled visits on February 14 indefinitely. This is why some prisoners developed feelings like intensive hate for Jonathan, even though he had a nice personality. So how did Jonathan escape then?

If she had a big belly, and Johnathan was a midget, then:

I'm not familiar with this expression. I wonder what it means. Intuitively, I think it means 'damn I'm good!', or something like that. ::)

A "hole in one" is an expression used in golf to suggest that you get the ball in the hole the first time you hit it on a course.

Huh, i was going to say that if she still had the fake pregnancy device and he was a midget, then they shaved him and took off all his clothes to pretend he was her newborn baby. works pretty well

I think that one would probably knock on the door if his woman was delivering. :-/ :)
