I suspect ...Thinking further... as for marijuana... I suspect I am one of only a few folks in my neck of the woods that is curious about it but never has tried it. I would like to, but have not done so because back when I had easy access (college) I was unsure if I could "handle" is... I always imagined as being wonderful but potentially leading me to become lazier than I already was and not remain focused enough to finish graduate school. Now, decades later, becoming lazier is not a worry, but trying to find it is not so easy for an old guy like me. If I ever go to Colorado or Washington for a meeting... I will be certain to try it out in that easier to find environment... To at least finally know what it is like.PipeTobaccohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17746884792061867611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-26820147610405922702016-04-05T18:45:34.444-04:002016-04-05T18:45:34.444-04:00In terms of Doomsday, it seems a non-issue for me....In terms of Doomsday, it seems a non-issue for me...

Yeah, those folks bent on the Rapture should not be allowed to play with sharp objects, especially the kind that blow shit up. I had not stepped foot in a Walmart since 1990 until the other day when forced to do so by my wife. I was impressed. Not impressed by the offerings, but impressed that Walmart had not changed, it just got bigger.<br /><br />JACKIESUE - Mainstream treats them as eccentrics until one of them gets a hold of the reins somewhere.<br /><br />Nasreen Iqbal - I think some of them hope the conspiracies, the dire predictions, and off the wall scenarios are seated in truth. For some knowing that it is us against them makes it easieer to justify their own shortcomings.<br /><br />robin andrea - I did not mean to leave the impression that this guy was totally out there. Most of our conversations were rather mundane and normal. But yeah, I think he could use some theraputic down time of one kind or another.<br /><br />mohaverat - You said it for me. When I question my own sanity, a conversation with someone from the edge of reason, re -grounds me.<br /><br />MRMacrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01414173517957120477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-90773014329186566012016-04-03T19:32:20.368-04:002016-04-03T19:32:20.368-04:00I always enjoy the company of these people.

Wouldn't wear anything reptilian, and when I saw maybe ten years ago she'd had her tongue forked. Fellatio benefits aside, I found her split licker disconcerting.<br /><br />The Buzzard's right. As for End-of-Days scenarios, it is the charismatic Christians' desires to reach that time that most scares me with their Presidential candy dates.
