This is a complete and total tangent to this trip. I just saw this article on espn.com and couldn't help myself. There are consultants who help prepare you for life behind bars? Can this be a sign of the apocalypse?
from espn.com--
NEW YORK -- Plaxico Burress' lawyer says a prison consultant is preparing the former New York Giants star for life behind bars.
Benjamin Brafman tells the New York Post in a story published Saturday that the wide receiver is getting advice on "how to use his period of confinement as productively as possible."
The 32-year-old Burress pleaded guilty Thursday to one count of attempted criminal possession of a weapon. He had accidentally shot himself in the thigh at a Manhattan nightclub in November.
His plea deal calls for a two-year prison term. Burress is to be sentenced Sept. 22.
Consultants are popular among celebrities and other high-profile people facing incarceration.
FWIW, today's The Times of India is ripe with great headlines and articles. Later on today I'll get some of them up for your entertainment and edification...
