Need help from former MFS (MyFreedomSmokes) customers
Has any found a supplier or company that has tobacco e-juice like or very similar to MFS Turbosmog, Tall Paul, or Red Luck?
Get an Abby Dabby dog (Min Pin). They don't need bathing on a regular basis. I think Abby has had a bath once in her 8 years. Doesn't smell or anything. Min pins generally have dry skin and if you bathe them they dry out worse and get dandruff and such.
Ha, I used to drive 30mi out of my way to pick up the newest copy. Freddie was cool.
@oldbroad ...Welcome back..Did you catch a lot of fish? More importantly....did you have a wonderful time?
..but...no fishing, no pontoon ride, the weather was uncooperative...but, we ate a lot of previously-caught bluegill and a whole lot of venison! Played euchre for hours n hours and my GD got to see herds of deer, including quite a few bucks, at a brother's farm and I bought three loaves of REAL English muffin breadoh...and fresh -from-the-farm corn and cukes I had to come home Thurs. n go to the Doc's..I probably slept a total of 16 hrs. in four days...had to get up about every two-three hours to go potty ( i know...too much info). Yesterday the Dr. called in an antibiotic..only took two pills yesterday and i was back to "normal" My bro lead the way....he and his ride were covered in mud
Good morning to the young at heart
It's good to be home
I went to bed yesterday around three or four in the afternoon ...I just got up!
But...just hanging out with my family was well worth it!
Oh...and my Gd got to go three-wheeling thru all kinds of muddy backwoods trails
That he was, that's how I first met him, giving a tour of CIC. That's where I work while in the Navy. I was a Operations Specialist. OSCS.

We've talked about this and You know that I'm very much in accord. What a sad world it will be if all the access to pursuits in the Arts and creativity are so diminished or eliminated...Rant for the Day©
Whether or not anyone ever liked the "No Child Left Behind" act, it was replaced in 2015 with the "Every Student Succeeds" act .. in the new act, for the first time in the History of the United States, the Arts were identified as part of what would be considered a Well-Rounded Education .. recognizing that math, science, literacy, etc, are not, in and of themselves, enough .. the inclusion of the Arts in ESSA was a giant step forward in nurturing Students at all levels that, perhaps, lean more toward the Right Brain (see earlier Post) ..

The arts, and other less academic programs, are exactly what we need in the schools for students who struggle with academics. Without those subjects, the dropout rate increases. Many are very talented. The arts are also a valuable avenue of self-expression for the iconoclasts and rebels-- who, when coaxed into such self-expression, can become valued productive members of society. The alternative would be self-destruction.Rant for the Day©
