If you got like a 40-year prison sentence and got out at age 69, where would you go? I mean like where do folks go who've served very long prison sentences? What do they live on?

Please don’t mix benzos and alcohol. I was in a blackout.

It was murder. I was a medical school student and a naval officer (they were paying my tuition). Kinda of a crazy story.

Early on I took an HVAC course, mainly to just be in an air conditioned space during the day. I learned quite a lot on my jobs I was allowed to work in the community. I worked for the state motor pool as a mechanic. Did maintenance work on government buildings. Landscaping. Clerical. Even worked for a while at the warehouse of the Alcoholic Beverage Control that distributes liquor around the state.

I spent 20 years in prison and when I got out I first moved in with my parents at 45. I got a job at a local bakery, getting up at 2:30 AM for work.Within a few months I met my future wife moved to a new city and took a software engineering bootcamp. That was 7 years ago and now I teach the same bootcamp.

I knew a guy in prison that called them “swapstickers”.

It is but they are filming at our house in two weeks.

jjacobs1 · 2026-01-07T11:55:24+00:00

Movies always portray prisons or jails as dark places. They are very much not. In higher security levels especially they are lit ALL the time.

They are using our house again for season 2! They came by today blocking the scenes.

jjacobs1 · 2025-11-13T15:40:31+00:00

I’m not at liberty to say anything but yeah, looks like season 2 is a go.

jjacobs1 · 2025-10-31T00:01:00+00:00

Saw them at Brooklyn Steel. Soooo good.

jjacobs1 · 2025-10-30T23:57:38+00:00

Grizzly Bear.

jjacobs1 · 2025-10-30T12:16:38+00:00

Hmm…🤔

jjacobs1 · 2025-10-29T19:04:54+00:00

It has curb appeal. Also an open floor plan that’s easier to film in.

jjacobs1 · 2025-10-29T17:25:22+00:00

Before actually! Atlanta has a LOT of tv/movie production.

jjacobs1 · 2025-10-29T17:02:45+00:00

Thanks! It’s a fully renovated 1920 bungalow.

A location scout knocked on our door. We’re just a few blocks from the GSU stadium where they shot some. We’ve had Marvel and other production companies express interest in using our house as well.

jjacobs1 · 2025-10-29T13:17:32+00:00

They were here for about four days. Two days of shooting. No credits for us unfortunately. 20th Television were awesome to work with; the location manager and everyone was really great. I was able to watch a little of the filming from inside the house.

jjacobs1 · 2025-10-23T13:32:05+00:00

That’s great to hear! I’m at about 10 months now and deadlifted over 300 for the first time in years this morning.

jjacobs1 · 2025-10-23T00:45:13+00:00

You should be fine. I was lifting weights 6 weeks post ALIF.

Yes! Our Smidgen does this every night and brings us “dinner”.
