Celina, OH

At least before I went to jail Jack's mom fed me real good.
Cool kids I told my story to in front of the courthouse.
Kids at IC Fest.
Kids at shelterhouse.
9:34pm Alright everyone. Guess where I am. I am in Mercer County Jail. You see, bummed and a little bored in Celina, today I went out to the I.C. Fest. It was really lame. It was getting packed. So many people were recognizing me and I stayed busy passing out my website. After a while I tried to walk away so I could sneak a toke, but all these kids were following me around. I noticed there was a cop following me, so I turned around, grabbed my wallet and approached him with my ID. He asked me how I was doing and I shot him my usual happiest-man-in-the-world line. I told him that I was a journalist, a long-distance walker. He asked me what I was handing out and I told him just my webpage. He said I was under arrest for contributing to the delinquency of a minor, because my website is about marijuana. That is total bullshit! I am just exercising my constitutional freedoms, my freedom of speech, damnit!
They got me for that and paraphernalia, even though I paid sales tax for this paraphernalia. I bought it fair and square. When I get out of jail, I'll buy another one. Officer Taylor came by. I had talked to him the other day and he let me go. I was very compliant and cooperative.
Tons of kids saw me get arrested, so word should travel fast that I am in jail. I really hope somebody bails me out. My bond is set at $250. Fifty for paraphernalia and two hundred for the contributing charge. Since it's Friday I'll be in jail all weekend until I talk to the judge on Monday.
Oh yeah, I didn't tell you. Right before I went over to the I.C. Fest I scored another free movie at the theater, Hancock with Will Smith. It sucked hardcore. The people at the movie like me, so they let me stash my pack and bag behind the counter. After the movie I asked them if I could leave them there until they closed tonight, so I could walk around the festival free with my shirt exposed. They said sure. I told them, "Way to support the cause." So I'm comforted that my bags are safe. Hopefully they'll hear I got arrested and bail me out. This is such bullshit. Hopefully I'll get out soon. Hopefully they'll read my website. Man, FUCK THE POLICE! They cut the bell out of my dreads! This means war!
