    FDA Approves Flavored And Tobacco Vapes Today

    Not a fan of socialism in any shape or form, even in it's West European style. Too much government control on speech, social behavior and, commerce in my opinion. Millions of folk are comfortable with that however. "Social engineering" by fiat is something I can't abide. But, I have to admit...

    FDA Approves Flavored And Tobacco Vapes Today

    It's great to know some people enjoy starting businesses, doing the work required or, there wouldn't be any stocks to buy and sell. And, one doesn't buy and sell real estate without the right people doing the due diligence necessary. People risking their moneys to increase their moneys are...

    Washington Smoking Laws: Advice for Enjoying a Smoke?

    Laws which are not to be enforced only teach folks that they also can pick and choose. Such reduces respect for laws, the people who enacted of such laws and law enforcement itself.

    FDA Approves Flavored And Tobacco Vapes Today

    As one of the Founding Fathers, Franklin, observed, "A republic, if you can keep it." Due diligence! Simple really, reading, listening and forming your opinions, not selfishly but, based on what is best for the country.

    FDA Approves Flavored And Tobacco Vapes Today

    The legislature legislating is what the founding fathers envisioned. Generally they should arrive at what they feel is the best answer possible, usually through compromise. Often, this process insures no one is fully satisfied. rotf Then, routinely, the President either signs or vetoes...

    Thoughts On Oil Changes

    My dash advises when a servicing is required. I leave the details up to Mercedes while I drive a "loaner" for a day.

    A Question On Materials

    I've not found that to be true. A personal choice to be sure, Meerschaum fragility? If ornately carved care to not drop is required. Otherwise, standard shapes, while prone to scuffs and scares, are no more fragile than the same shapes in briar. I consider cobs to be "disposables."...

    FDA Approves Flavored And Tobacco Vapes Today

    Legislation via "regulations" has been severely curtailed. So the FDA had to reverse course from the earlier administration's way of doing "business." No more legislation via regulations. They are not "allowing" anything simply following instructions from above and forcing Congress to...

    "unintended consequences", what a naive bunch they are at No.6.

    Timber And Smoke Magazine

    If one has the funds to be altruistic, more power to them. I'm very "tight" with a dollar and simply dislike seeing someone, perhaps quixotically, put out hard earned monies needlessly. So, put me in the "tough crowd." It's a crowd I'm happy to join. I'm aware there is a thin line between...

    Smoking Pipe around Children...

    I'd err on the side of caution and not smoke in the house. Tobacco releases known carcinogens when on fire. Cigars, cigarettes and pipes involve ignited tobacco. Do the math! Some cigarettes, usually those in white paper wrapping do, often, contain chemicals meant to make the cigarette burn...

    Timber And Smoke Magazine

    Oh, I think your magazine title is a bit obtuse. It should immediately inform the viewer what the magazine is all about, pique interest and all that. Anything that appeals to the interests of a prospective reader. Timber and Smoke immediately suggest to me a magazine abut wildfire fighting...

    Timber And Smoke Magazine

    Enough to pay the bills and possibly a wee bit for profit, to be shoveled back into production. Production costs simply require a price I'm unwilling to pay. I consider a dollar an issue to be too much to pay for information which can be found at no cost. Magazines are obsolete in my opinion...

    Timber And Smoke Magazine

    Nope! I doubt at the price that it'll last long. What new info could it possibly contain? know how to load, light and puff. Why in the world would I need an expensive magazine. Moneys better spent on tobacco I'd guess.

    Is This Cake or Just Crud?

    It's your pipe! You want a layer of cake? Grow it. Don't want it? cut it out. Your decision. Some swear to a bit of cake. Others? Swear at it. It's purely your choice.
