For the last 30 years, Cornelius Dupree has been in the Texas prison system; convicted of a crime he didn't commit. Today, he was exonerated and declared an innocent man. He was 19 when he entered jail, only a few years older than me in 1979. (VERY interesting read here---)
How do you give back to this man all those years he lost?

Very thought provoking, JuJu...what a nice photo of him, BTW. AND: I had a dream with you in it last night! You had bright pink hair, and we were stuck in the back of a very big container truck...then we got out and some sort of shenanigans (I don't remember) ensued!
word: niarne
Would you rather go to Narnia or Niarne?
God, Ju, this sends shivers through me.
