Three Wishes

Baroness Pannonica asked Jimmy Heath if he was given three wishes what would they be. He replied:

  1. “I wish it would be possible that the statement they make, that “you have paid your debt to society,’ would be true. I mean, when you’ve been to prison, when you come home, it’s suppose to be cool. But you still have a record, it still follows you. It’s always there.”
  2. “If the world is made over, I would like everyone to be made the same color. Then everyone would be judged by their merits, individually.”
  3. “I wish I could transfer this wish to my wife.”
