I'm thinking of smoking a pipe. I miss the smell of my father's pipe. Frank, your dad died with lip and lung cancer, didn't he? Yeah, but he was much younger than I am now.
I had a great aunt who dipped snuff- that may sound very weird, but you can substitute ‘drank vodka’ if that settles easier into your mind. Later in her eighties, she was hospitalized for something or other, and after a few days asked a family member to run out and get her some snuff. Worried about her health, the family member asked her doctor about it. He, very lucidly I thought, said that she was eighty-whatever years old… go get her the snuff, what was it going to do- shorten her lifespan? Hats off to the memory of Aunt Johnnie. (And make fun if you will, but we do live in the part of America where you can pronounce ‘aunt’ to sound like ’ain’t’. Just the way ’tis. Try it. Sounds good.
Greg, I JUST seen your comment from yesterday and all I’m going to say is be careful when using an ATM as it can swallow your card. Also make sure your budget is well balanced and don’t spend your cash on too many Non essential items which you really don’t need. One more thing, NEVER ignore the red minions ( Bills) that fly through your letter box.
I’m sure you ALL know this everyone! But Greg DID ask If I had advice for you all.

A pipe no. A good cigar once in a while, sure.

I use to smoke and I enjoyed it. But after 20 years my body told me to quit and I did. Thing is, now my lung is 40 years older than the rest of me.

I should point out that Aunt Johnnie lived YEARS past that incident in the hospital.

Oh dear! Sorry to hear that.
I haven’t used an ATM myself but I DO know how much trouble they can be.
I don’t know if you seen yesterday’s strip of The Buckets, But I took two Finance exams and passed them both.
I hope you’re doing well.. Long time no see!

“good” and “cigar” just don’t go together

All I’m getting on your links is a g-mail sign in page and I don’t have g-mail.
