  • Juvenile Offenders

    I was listening to the Diane Rehm show the other day.... Ok, I love Diane Rehm. LOVE her. One of these days I'm going to do something interesting enough for her to feel the need to interview me. Either her or Ira Glass from This American Life . Deities. Both of them. I'm not sure what I need...
