    The 'Forgotten War'?

    The day is coming up when we can celebrate the courage of this nation. Thanks bulldog. Happy Fourth to all. Notwithstanding every moral outrage of every war,,,,,,,,,,,A FALLEN SOLDIER IS A FALLEN SOLDIER! I salute em all.

    Fa$ten Your $eat Belt$

    When you mail cash, you are, in effect, reducing M3, money supply, to the extent that you are, temporarily, reducing the available inventory of the cash component of M3. When you charge something on a credit card, you increase M3, to the extent that you increase a banks accounts receivables...

    Fa$ten Your $eat Belt$

    EQUALLY as important as M3, money supply, is the velocity of money. Turning a buck in x time TWICE is the same as turning 2 bucks once in the same time. Same damned M3. I am not going to do your homework anymore, YOU can google money supply. By money supply, I am NOT speaking of just cash.

    Fa$ten Your $eat Belt$

    Esteemed :face: di tutti :face: :face: :face: I remind you that actual printed currency is only a fraction of the total money supply. I would be surprised if it were much more than 10%. The fed furiously printing it in order to keep pace with a declining exchange rate simply is not true...

    Chance are, it would be high grade Syrian Latakia and not some funky ol' gentile blend like Walnut. :D

    Spirit Smokes

    Been on a hunerd or so fishing trips with my father-in-law. He recanted, many times, about his father smoking PA in his pipes. Once told him I wished he had saved the pipes. FIL asked me "Why". Told him I'd smoke em. FIL asked me "Why." Told him RESPECT! He smiled in his hard ass Montana way. He...

    Pennsylvania Smoking Ban

    Smoking permitted in California at tj's house. Have accommodated seven BOBS at one time; seven pipes plus one cigar going simultaneously. One BOB had a pipe going and a cigar at the same time; looking for crossover flavors. Y'all come on over. :lol!:

    Different Culture, Different Role Model

    We,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,? Art, the neighbor, is embarassed because he didn't send me a X-mas card. Sooooo, he sends me one in a hurry. You guessed it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,same thing.

    Different Culture, Different Role Model

    Specifically, it goes like this. If I send my next door neighbor a letter, say a X-mas card, I put it in my mailbox, flip up the little red flag to alert the postlady. She picks it up and drives it around all day in her little Postal Jeep, then takes it to the Sonora Post Office. They ship it 90...

    Different Culture, Different Role Model

    They said they would ship worldwide, except,,,,,,,,,,insert list of about eight countries including Hong Kong. Item location is Hong Kong. We have a similar situation here in Sonora, Ca. If you mail something in Sonora TO a Sonora address it first gets sent 90 miles to Stockton who sends it...

    Take it home for the weekend. Park it in your driveway. Take the Mrs. and the kids for a ride. Dock, you ARE sinister. Someone should rock salt your Danish. Imagine a seven day set of them. I would dedicate a Smoker to it. Be better than having Pease sleep on my floor. Fish on! Too...

    What's really nice is that LL is back. Now, if we can get that damned :gatewheel: back. L, Perfect pipe for that fedora of yours. Fedora, that pipe, the cocky smile. You could be a bass player.

    Forget what you've heard...

    Have you used that line before, Dock? It just came out too easily. Almost natural. Stand your ground LL. We might not respect you in the morning. And, think about it. The pipe was crafted twenty years before you were misconceived. Some here would call that a conspiracy.

    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    How qualified can a man be who spends weeks in the hot Texas sun spraying weeds with toxic chemicals? Sounds like Walnut finally finished the poor guy off. :lol!: :lol!: :lol!: :lol!: :lol!: :lol!: :lol!: :lol!: :lol!:

    My problem is not Attention Deficit Disorder disorder disorder. It's long term memory. Things beyond sixty days have little significance.
