News on Dexter Taylor and a clip from the event this morning...
I heard from Dexter. He's is good spirits. Surprisingly good spirits in Rikers. Apparently he's got decent bunk mates. He's playing chess. Making the most of a terrible situation.
They are working on the appeal. Apparently he will have a hearing before the parole board (or whatever the administrative body that determines release pending appeal) within the months / a couple of weeks.
Time being stolen from his life like that scene in Interstellar when they were stuck on the planet where every hour there was 7 years on earth.
Stealing time. Stealing life. Turning a productive man into a burden on the state. It's depressing, but encouraging that Dexter is dealing with it as well as he is.
Did the Spartan Race this morning. It brings back memories. Hadn't done one in around 6 years. The terrain in Florida made it feel a little more like Boot Camp compared to the terrain up north, which gave it more of a scenic extreme hike feel.
Will put together the video, but wanted to share this highlight.
Going to go snort some gin to purify the sinuses! 😂
Godspeed everyone, enjoy the weekend.
