I assure you I will have plenty!!!!

I can not believe how small the tobacco seeds are. According to the book I got there are upwards of 350,000 (not a typo) seeds in a single ounce of them.........

Being a "Johnny Appleseed" of tobacco seeds is actually something max asked me to do, about a month before she died..... I gave her my word and plan to stick with it.

It's a precious idea, Gabz. You go for it. Let me know when you "plant the seeds." Keep watch over them.

I've already started the seeds for my garden.....and plan to save the flowers that hold all the seeds from the couple of hundred plants I will have going.......I'll be sure to send some of them to you

I need to pick up a couple more flats to finish starting my seeds......and then the rest I plan to just scatter here and there!!!! I've got way more seeds then room to grow them.

cash-strapped states

One has to ask why states are "cash strapped." It is because politicians and bureaucrats show all of the fiscal responsibility of a drunken sailor. Sorry, drunken sailors show a lot more restraint because they at least only spend what money they have not other peoples' money.

There is nothing greedier or more profligate than government.

Solution: Drive to NC. Load up on cigarettes. Visit the mountains. Take a few pictures. Buy some more cigarettes; by now you will have found a little more space in your car. Drive home. Repeat as needed.

The black market is a predictable consequence of government intrusion into private matters.

I have a ton of Favorite online shopping sites. SOME want taxes for Maine, most do not. It's not my worry if they don't ask for Maine taxes.
