A downward variance.

And the variance was because of all the good work I had done in AA.

Well, I was probably looking at like 21 months.

So I got a three-month sentence.

you know, downward.

That was great.

And I didn't even know what any of that stuff meant back then.

You know, I was like, I w I was out of it.

So, um, I, I reported to prison in 2006.

And at that point I was almost four years sober.

And really found out that, you know, most guys, when they go to prison, they're like drinking and drugging right up to the door.

And I was like, at this point, a sober guy.

And I had been through the steps and I had been like, you know, I had already started my transformation.

And I was going to be in prison, you know, roughly a year, a little bit more.

And I was able to turn it into this kind of transformative experience.

And it was fascinating.

It was absolutely fascinating.

I mean, I wasn't in a camp.

So I was in a low security prison with controlled movements and bars on the windows and everything.

But I had met people there that I never would have had an opportunity to meet.
