I was quite surprised at the harshness of the probation department's recommendation. Judge Davila going over and above that shocks me even more.

I was quite surprised to find such a large quantity of older manufacturing techniques and machinery.

You don't carry in your countenance a letter of recommendation.

Don't be so harsh on yourself because of your bad decisions you've made in the past and don't let them hinder your life progress. Try to forgive yourself and accept it as a learning curve for you and thank God you have managed to turn things .around.

It's quite a ringing endorsement to get a recommendation to have it back on the market with a unanimous vote.

I was angry, I felt violated . I was angry for quite a while about it, and now I would just like to have it back. It's kind of like one of the kids been gone a long time and needs to come home now .
