My cigs are all natural. No additives. (at least that's what they're telling me and what the tobacco is sold as) The tubes don't have that self-extinguishing crap in them, either. The manufactured ones used to make Inga nauseous. These don't.

Just may try that if I had proof that after the fact I now looked like a 20 year old with big tits,   Hell woman my age would eat cat shit if the results were that good.


Are you getting this, Stinky?  You could very well be sitting on a fortune.

A few of the old eyetie tobacco growers on the hills behind town here decided, after the government terminated their livelihoods to sell "chop-chop" which is unexcised tobacco.

They got more hard time and fine for a triple trailer truck of tobacco than what they would have for the same volume of weed.

Our government gets around excise cheaters like this by making it more illegal to grow and cure tobacco than it is to do same with weed. Which is similar to their attitude on producing spirits for personal consumption.



 

Ain't that the truth, bubba! They can't collect tax on "the herb", so they screw us on everything else! Of course, lefties don't smoke, so whdoya think pays?

I saw one a few weeks ago where a neighbor sued the guy next door, because his cigar smoke could be "smelled" next door.

It was a health hazard, doncha know?

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

I wish I could get my new neighbor to take up smoking black cherry pipe tobacco, like the old neighbor did.   :whistling:
