When Harvey Stewart first went to prison 60 years ago, gasoline was 20 cents a gallon, a postage stamp cost three pennies and Harry Truman was president.

Now, as perhaps one of the longest-serving inmates in U.S. history, the convicted killer is looking forward to the perks of freedom when he is released on parole in the coming weeks or months.

Details in Houston Chronicle.

Asked what he hoped to do when he does get out, Stewart gets defensive.

"You think I want to get involved in some sex and get drunk," he said.

I guess he learned that life doesn't really mean life.
