Do you think Michael Corelone would have run such a slip-shod operation with a private server? <br /><br />She had the private server so she wouldn't inadvertantly leave something incriminating in government records.<br /><br />Where she slipped up was in requesting that ALL "work-related" = undeleted emails be released, to try to show how open she supposedly was. That's what caused areview of all her emails sent over her substitute for state.gov <br /><br />Now whenever a mass release of records is requested they get reviewed for classification and invariably some are deemed classified. <br /><br />If anybody else's "unclassified" emails had been reviewed, they'd have found the same things.<br /><br />And let's not say she thought up all these "brilliant" ideas by herself.

My husband told me then that if he ever booked us on a cruise I should be wary.<br /><br />Since that time when we have a day where we just aren't getting along, he will reference taking a vacation (… maybe a cruise? Doesn't that sound nice?). We will both start laughing.<br /><br />When I am angry at him he will start running a bit from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I can't not laugh. It must be a "me" thing because my first boyfriend did the same thing.

Sort of like the African from Togo who wrote about his life in Greenland, but not from inside a Danish-Greenland prison in that case.<br /><br /> Though its an interesting idea.

Also, I was less interested in writings that were about the prison experience rather than a writer able to use the confinement to do writing he might be able to do on the outside but never get around to.
