Things I shouldn't Think About
So, there should be something great and prophetic coming out of my fingertips today, but that's just not the case.
Instead, I'm wondering about the protagonist of Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues." Yeah, you know, that one.
Well, if he "shot a man in Reno/just to watch him die" why the hell is he listening in on a train from the comforts of Folsom Prison? Last time I looked at a map, Reno was in Washoe County, Nevada. Folsom is in Sacramento County, California (the little town of Represa, in actuality, not nearby Folsom), which means he either served out his term for murder with the Sate of Nevada before moving on Down I-80 a few miles or was extradited for another equally heinous offense.
Stuck in Reno... and time keeps dragging on, eh?
I guess it just don't have the same ring.
Either that, or I'm a wonk of the highest and most unhealthy proportions.
I'm hungry.
