THE MISSING LINK | Jailbirds remember porridge online

They did the crime, they did the time, now they're going 
online. Cons and ex-cons are revisiting the days they spent 
counting the days. A new site, http://www.convictsreunited.com/, 
is an online gathering place for those who want to catch up with
their peers from the pokey. It was the "time" of their lives after
all! The site was originally set up as a joke -- a spoof of all those
high school and college reunion sites. But some 3,000 people signed
up!
