Attempts to Relieve Ennui

This one gives us the chance to complain (once again) that if the protagonist of Mr. Cash's tune shot a man in Reno, NEVADA, he wouldn't be doing time in Folsom, a CALIFORNIA state prison.

might not be the same crime, he might just be more proud of the Reno one.

Maybe he's doing time in CA for illegally downloading music, which wouldn't impress the prison heavies.

It could have been planned in California, for all you know.

Or he was running from California cops, invoking the Hot Pursuit rule.

Just sayin'.

perhaps he requested a transfer because the Nevada climate was drying out his skin.

It says "attempts." It's very trying.

Couldn't Resist Editor adds:

No, it was trying for the singer of the song.

For some reason I enjoy this song about stealing stuff from work.

From The Property Crimes Desk:

We used to have enough stuff to run a bank, except for the damn cash or credit. Telephones, adding machines...

(Better images.)

Aside: We were confused too.
