HONI form the NIJ

Just put your tiny footsy into this wet cement. I promise I won’t hurt you, I just need your consent. You see, we need a helper to shore up all the walls. It’s you we’d  like to honor  inside our hallowed halls. We see you very often. You stop in quite a bit. So if we add you to the mix you’ll be an instant hit. You love to do some damage to trucks and stolen cars. So why not help to reinforce your home of tile and bars. We’ll name a wing just for you. We’ll write your name in gold. You’ll live here ever after. You never will grow old. The keys are in your pocket. You have to get out now or you’ll just end up as the aft lest you prefer the bow. We’ve heard from the contractors they’re lacking on clean fill, but we have reassured them we’ve something to instill. So if you must continue to break most every bill, then we’ll incorporate you into the window sill. So put your tiny footsy into this wet cement. We’ll add you to our mortar. You’ll join our firmament. 05-2000 Laurie Dee

scroll down HONI stands for How to Open a New Institution NIJ stands for the National Institute of Justice I promise, we don't have any juveniles buried in our walls, although the thought has crossed our minds.
