Happy Canada Day
Only way to start the morning
Crown Royal Maple and coffee
You're missing a cigar....
I am smart enough now not to put crap into my lungs , to many spots on them
You don't inhale cigars....
Believe what you want about that  :rofl:
It's not what I believe...you just don't inhale cigars (unless you want to barf).

I bet the booze is harder on your liver than a cigar is on your lungs LOL :)

So why you have smoke in your month that does not count or the second hand smoke in the does not count

Definitely the second hand smoke would be the prime risk....especially in an enclosed area.

But if you're outside, on your deck, or someplace with plenty of air where the second hand smoke can waft away and can't accumulate, the risk of inhalation is diminished (obviously).

And yes...the smoke is in your mouth but you are not drawing it in and inhaling it into your lungs like cigarette smoking. I still wouldn't say cigar smoking is a healthy past time though! :)

You said you had spots on your lungs? Work related?

The cause is unknown at the moment at least there is no cancer or  clots

Maybe not?

But, think how low the fuel consumption would be if they set the cruise at 55 mph and stayed in the right lane.   ;D

Got rushed by a tweaker on the walk home right on Portage. I could see him yelling and running at me from the left. Nothing in his hands. I just kept walking. I actually though I was going to take a hit, but he didn't raise a fist and he stopped a couple of inches from me. I just kept walking eyes straight ahead. He turned around and started yelling at somebody else.

Cotton from King of the Hill came to mind: "I can take a hit, but not to the face. It's how I make my livin'."  ;D

I think I'll be glad for winter though.

On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Well that must have sucked!  :P  I had to look up the term though...first time I've heard that one.    :foil:

Learned it in Winnipeg.  :P

I guess at this point my attitude is:




Oh, and when I got home I walked over to the local Safeway and apparently there was an incident at the local liquor store. Lots of po-po running around.

Maybe when I'm back home I'll see if I can carve up a piece of ash or hickory into a shillelagh. Plausible deniability.

In other news... Lee Iacocca has passed away.  Chrysler products were never my cup of tea, but he certainly managed to breathe new life into the company.
