Could someone please help me dig up a thread on prison?

Some time ago there was a fascinating thread - which contained a link to another thread, on SomethingAwful - about being in prison. The SomethingAwful thread was a really fascinating post by someone who had done time and was describing his experience in detail, and the thread on here was talking about it.

I’ve been trying to find it, using the Dope’s very own oh-so-wonderful search engine. But our oh-so-wonderful search engine is making it very, very difficult for me to find this thread, and very tedious, because of its wonderfulness. Did I mention that our search engine is wonderful?

Are there any people here who might be so incredibly kind as to help me find this old thread? Thanks in advance for the help.

I know the exact thread you’re talking about, lemme see if I can find it…

Sorry thought I had it bookmarked somewhere but cannot find it.

Since this is About This Message Board, I’m going to move this to ATMB.

Is it this one, perhaps?

“What is life like in a military prison?”, second result on a Google search for “site:boards.straightdope.com somethingawful prison”

I think this is what you’re looking for:

it’s now 19 pages long, and it is probably the BEST thread I have ever read on the internet.

Fascinating (but scary!) information about prison life, and well-thought out political philosophy --all written with style, wit, and a mastery of the English language.

The main author- with the user name HidingfromGoro- writes better than our own favorite Dopers (anybody remember Master Kang-wa?).
