How to Deal With Being in Prison

I'm back from "The Land Withouth Internet" and before I can even talk about the trip I'm confronted by a link to this from the eHow feed on my start page:

How to Deal With Being in Prison

Yup, somebody actually wrote a wiki on how to deal with prison life. Yeah, I'm sure someone is going to jump on the internet one last time and look this up as the cops are kicking down their door. This is one of my favorites:

"Do not become a 'punk' (girlfriend). While becoming a punk might give you some fleeting, temporary protection from other inmates, you will be a virtual slave to one. Punks are used and abused. They are traded away in card games and sold for cigarettes. It is not a path to long term survival in prison."

Good to know "Just In Case".
