It's our LOVED ones that are in prison not us. so don't get up on yer dew claws... we DO care, that's why we search, read and react to all things TDCJ.

I thought about that but figured there wouldn't be too many overall.<BR/><BR/>I agree next time student, media, and family members of the incarcerated would have all been good additions. Rev, clergy may be lower than cops - I bet I know most of them who're readers, unless I'm underestimating y'all. Who knows? Maybe in a few months we'll give it another try with more categories, and any others y'all come up with.<BR/><BR/>@ 9:01 - it's not like one in four readers answered, because it was a 7-day poll and most folks don't come by every day.<BR/><BR/>Half of Grits "hits" are from search engines which usually visit once and never return. The other half are repeat visitors. According to Google Analytics, Grits has just under 3,000 "regulars." One quarter of them, roughly, are from Austin, another quarter from Dallas and Houston combined, and the rest scattered around the state.<BR/><BR/>Still, now that I think of it, nearly 1 in 6 is still a pretty good response rate!Gritsforbreakfasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10152152869466958902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-8510810039772793292008-01-26T09:37:00.000-06:002008-01-26T09:37:00.000-06:00I second the one for family and loved ones of INMA...I second the one for family and loved ones of INMATES in TDCJ.<BR/>You're my first read every morning, then printed out and sent to my inmate, who posts for other inmates to read.
