Anybody ever been incarcerated?

Dunno why Andy didn't accept Bogs's offer of friendship in the beginning of the movie. Bogs was clearly interested in Andy but Red was kind of rude and aloof to Andy at the beginning. source

Any Stone Masons Here?

If that was built right the cells closest to the edge will have rebar the full hieght as well as being attached in the footer as well as being grouted solid. The Quickee saw that sombody posted is what the pros would use. My biggest concern would be if they used 8X8X16 open end blocks, Kind of look like a H. If they used thoose your going to find more grout than you expect as well as are going to need to cut some waffers in to close the ends of the open end blocks. The easiest way depending on how much wider you want to go and how close the gas meter is is remove the secion between the gte and the wall. If they used closed end blocks though you shou be alot better off. Just grout the cell solid so the gate doesn't pull the wall over in time. source

When you were a kid, what was your favourite film?
