    Wilke Sailor Jack Very Chunky

    As the title said. I just opened some sailor jack I bought last year and it looks like forest floor. Big chunks of leaf and challenging to pack even after i further shredded it by hand. See pic. That is what it looks like after i shredded it. Is this normal for some blends?

    Taxes/IRS Make Me Want to Blow my Brains Out!

    Title edited. Rule 9. You have options: 1.) Just get a decent accountant. 2.) Focus on the fact that if you didn't have that much income, you wouldn't have to pay taxes. 3.) The anguish you express and hours spent make an accountant cheaper. Good luck! There I said it! WARNING!!! Rant coming...

    I'm only a year and a half into this but I just found my jar of Peterson Old Dublin in the back of way too many open jars and I lit it up in a Savinelli Prince.
