Yep. If you don’t like the rules, change the game.

Most of the Lowe’s stores that are closing were part of a chain they acquired in Canada. Boy Trudeau’s economy is not so good.

there is a terrific article in city journal about how the smoking nazis in the US are treating vaping like smoking although there is not the same effect with the people around the vaper.

Wow, that is oddly fascinating..

I do like eggplant and tobacco. I like to grill eggplant while I smoke. I chew at work or hunting / fishing.

40 year tobacco user, I started at 8 years old. Happy Days was 45 cents a can then.

Started smoking in 1959, quit on Feb 24, 1999. 40 years, approximately 584,000 cigarettes.

Wish I had never started. Yeah, it was ‘cool’ and the ‘in thing to do.’

However, with the COPD I have today, I pay for those years of foolishness constantly. Not worth it.

There is nicotine BUT there is no tar and other chemicals as in cigarettes there can’t possibly be an effect to people around you it is just steam that dissipates immediately!!! I think my problem with quitting was just having something in my hand instead of food!!! Whoever invented the vaping pens I am SO THANKFUL to them when I grew up EVERYONE smoked and it is a habit that is extremely hard to quit!!!

Yet every contestant on Hell’s Kitchen smokes. Why would any restaurant hire a smoker who’s ruined their taste buds.

“Eat 3 large eggplants and you’ll get about the same dose of nicotine that you’d get from one cigarette.”

Let’s see, a pack a day = 20 Cigs. That’s 60 large eggplants a day for the same nicotine kick. I’m going to try it tomorrow. Wish me luck!
