re: #325 UberInfidel67

I think I had a mild nervous breakdown the other day. I went to the beer distributor to look at the loose tobacco prices. I started chuckling and said “THEY GOTTA BE KIDDING!” The girl behind the counter said “This was Bush’s idea”. I almost fell over. Then, someone who I thought looked like a hippy said “No miss, this belongs to Obama”. I started chanting HOPE&CHANGE HOPE&CHANGE. People were looking at me like I was nuts. I had plenty who agreed with me though. lol Now, instead of cussing, I say ‘hope&change”.

I’m nookin’ futz

If you’re into making your own, might I suggest you take a look at certain bulk pipe tobaccos? Prince Albert is very cheap by the pound, and is 100% burley tobacco; there are other brands out there (Five Brothers, Granger, etc.) that are all-burley, and are not taxed at the same rate as cigarette tobacco, as they are technically “pipe tobacco”. Interesting to note - for many decades, folks smoked the same tobacco in pipes and cigarettes, here in the states; it was all burley, all the time.
