Wake up people! If we don't stop it we smoke loving people will go the way of the Dinosaur.
But we did share our first cigarette together... a Camel that she swiped from a pack laying on her dad's dresser (her dad was a police detective, and we were both scared sh!tless that he figure out that she'd swiped that cig). Then we moved 450 miles away and I never saw her again !!! Nice tobacco inclusive memories, eh? !!!

Instead of buying by the carton ($42-50) per for American Spirits (yellow), we buy the can of loose American Spirit tobacco ($12.99), and a box of 100 filtered tubes ($1.00). A one-time purchase of the "injecting" machine was also necessary, for $10.
100 tubes filled with loose tobacco by way of the "injector", for less than $15, and we still have tobacco left over in the can. It's simple, quick, and tastes the same (of course.)
Anything to help out.
Mrs Kus
Got the Lounge open alittle early today, huh Joe. A bit too early for a Bloody Osama, especially since I have a kinda/sorta job interview later. So, I'll just have a Coke and enjoy the company til then.
How's everybody doin' this fine Friday afternoon? Weather is glorious here in the Hill Country of Texas - sunny and 61 degrees.
Can we smoke cigars here?;-)

Just one, just one! whilst you're slicing up the limes, Joe... They're prob'ly just a bunch a urban legends but they crack me up anyhoo...
IDIOTS AMONG US
IDIOTS IN SERVICE: This week, all our office phones went dead and I had to contact the telephone repair people. They promised to be out between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00p.m. When I asked if they could give me a smaller time window, the pleasant gentleman asked, "Would you like us to call you before we come?" I replied that I didn't see how he would be able to do that, since our phones weren't working. He also requested that we report future outages by email (Does YOUR email work without a telephone line?).
IDIOTS AT WORK: I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card.She informed me that she could not complete thetransaction unless the card was signed. When I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare the signature I had just signed on the receipt. So I signed the credit card in front of her. She carefully compared the signature to the one I had just signed onthe receipt. As luck would have it, they matched.
IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: too many deer were being hit by cars and he didn't want them to cross there anymore.
IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE: My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. She asked the person behind the counter for "minimal lettuce." He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg.
IDIOT SIGHTING #1: I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?" To which I replied, "If it was without my knowledge,how would I know?" He smiled knowingly and nodded,"That's why we ask."
IDIOT SIGHTING #2: The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged coworker of mine when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red. Appalled, she responded, "What on earth are blind people doing driving?!"
IDIOT SIGHTING #3: At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker who was leaving the company due to downsizing, our manager commented cheerfully, "this is fun. We should do this more often." Not a word was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that deer-in-the-headlights stare.
IDIOT SIGHTING #4: I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself and for the life of her couldn't understand why her system would not turn on.
IDIOT SIGHTING #5: When my wife and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it. We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked. "Hey," I announced to the technician, "it's open!" To which hereplied, "I know - I already got that side."
NOW DON'T YOU FEEL BETTER?
I don't have a lot of time to play so I need to start drinking right away.....
There! That should pay for my Heineken! LOL!
