   Hey guys,

   I officially received some good news today! I was accepted into the Economics Ph.d. program at the University of Kentucky. Also, I was offered an assistantship so tuition is covered along with a little extra.

   Can't wait to start in the fall! I'll have to have a good smoke to celebrate! Just wanted to share!

   Anyone know of a good tobacco store in Lexington?

    Truly great news. Congratulation

    When I was knee high, I thought that my late grandpa made the clouds in the sky with his cigar smoke, only to find out later it was his pipe smoke.

    Excellent news Gray. Congratulations. Economics is my 2nd favorite area of study after Marketing - and the two can be closely tied together at times.

    Kevin, thanks! Economics can touch many different subject areas. I really enjoy it!

    If you need a quantitative pipe article or survey study, or anything else, keep me in mind!
