Vodka, that was what I drank last besides beer, Stolichnaya Vodka is what I liked. The small town I lived in a high population of a Russian ethnic background.I will also partake in a little Tito’s vodka too when the feeling hits me but don’t drink as much these days. My body can only take the shock now and then.
Yep, aging makes it harder to metabolize the alcohol.
You have a point, any day could be the last day.

I’m pretty sure I have told the story about the clogged house sewer trap at a multi family I owned but will relay it again to hopefully make you glad it was only tampax in your drains. My tenant was flushing cat litter because he said garbage bags were too expensive(in Worcester, residents have to buy special bags at $1 or $1.50 per bag or the city won’t pick them up). So for his $1, he flooded his entire basement apt with sewage which he walked around in for around a week. The whole apt needed to be decontaminated, dried out and rehabbed. Insurance covered most of it and I had the management company take care of all the details but I saw the bills and it was over $25,000! That was the last straw and my partners and I sold the place shortly after that. I was concerned that the insurance company would cancel us if we didn’t evict the tenant and I didn’t have the heart to evict him. He had lived there for 20 years that I was aware of(and no, pets were not allowed but I am a softy and couldn’t tell someone to get rid of pets). So though your tenant is an a-hole for allowing that to happen twice, it could be worse. I have also have an ejector pump impeller clogged by sanitary pads in my own home from my sons female friends. I hollered at my boys and they in turn shamed the girls and it never happened again.
A neighbor of mine was out with his father getting firewood, dad had a heart attack and died in the bush. The son said it was a perfect place for his dad to die, this is where he loved to be.
Nothing wrong with dying while your fishing
Your dad was right
I'm sorry you can't smoke man , that really stinks. I hope you are able to enjoy good edibles man

now me , I cannot do edibles , triggers some killer headaches for some odd reason
but I smoke 5-10 joints a day and glad I still have good lungs into my 70’s…..
Good evening to all, the evening routine commences, now!
I have to admit I've bought one here and there, only when the prize is big but not even always then. I get why you say you'll never buy one from a savings point of view. It's almost a guarentee you're just throwing your money away. That said the few times I have bought them it's when I could afford to lose the little bit I spent and always it's with the understanding that I probably won't win....but there is always that chance. Plus you know what they say, "you got to be in it to win it." The way my luck goes I'll probably get my big winner on the day I die and the C.O.D. will be a heart attack from the sudden shock and excitement of winning the lottery.

Yeah say what you will about how he interacted with people UB has a wealth of knowledge. I didn't appreciate his take on my, in fact it pissed me off but i still have to respect his knowledge and contabution to the community.
This is almost unlikely but on the off chances sombody here doesn't know Uncle Ben or UB. The best way I can think of describing him is as a cantankerous old fart. He was pretty fun when he was in a good mood but if something rubbed him the wrong way he would launch into these epic rants. He was the kind of guy people usually came to for advice and was used to people finding him in a thread and just asking him some grow question out of the blue, even if it had nothing to do with the topic of the thread. People that were entertained by his rants got into the habit of following him in threads and out of the blue they would ask him a question they knew would trigger him For example he didn't think much of many of the nutrient manufacturers, especially one popular one, Advanced Nutrients. So a common question to get him started was to ask him what he thought of Avanced Nutirents. Of course you had to egg him on a little so they would simply question his first answer or two and then he would go off from there. Another popular one was to ask him what he thought of the practice of removing fan leaves to get bigger buds. He was very much against the practice even though we've all seen for ourselves at one time or another it does seem to help. His position which makes sense was that if a particular leaf was under performing due to lack of light exposure, the plant would drain the leaf of water and nutrients and then let the leaf die off. in his book every leaf trimmed represent a liitle less food from light being made. Many threads on that classic debate of fan leaves was due to Uncle Ben.
