Is it luck, or fate?

I made an amazing discovery today! Starting August 26th i will be attending Sacramento State and it turns out, there is a cigar and pipe shop called The Briar Patch not 3 blocks from the campus! :D This should make college that much more interesting.

Outstanding, now you have a great place to hang out and get away from "college life". :clap:

Great! :clap: Try to get a job there, even part time -- and settle for low pay because the perks would be great! :D

Seriously, whatever you do at college (besides the fun stuff) take accounting. Better yet, major in it. Even if everything else you take is poetry, art studio and philosophy, half the job listings out there will actually ask for some background in accounting. And whatever new technology comes along, they will still need accountants to count the beans.
OK, stepping off my soapbox now...

Good advice, Pitchfork. Everybody needs accountants and accounting skills -- even if only for personal equity management.

Accounting????? No go with STEM! At least in my somewhat biased opinion.

Very good!

The Loehmann's Plaza store is a great place to do business or have a smoke. Well stocked and good knowledgeable people.

I Like the Briar Patch, but I would recommend Tobacco Road. Less uptight and friendlier. Also, we have a local pipe club that meets twice a month. Third Thursday and last Sunday. I hope to see you.

iajaffe, I looked around on the Tobacco Road website and emailed them a few questions. Seems like a really friendly place. Ill met you know if i plan on stopping by one of the club meetings. Cheers!

It is Fate! Take full advantage of it. Good luck to you. I believe you will become very successful.
