I used to laugh at my 60's World Book encyclopedia. If you looked up advertising, They showed an add for Desoxyn, which had a housewife doing all the housework with plenty of energy. If you don't remember the big Desoxyn tabs and junkies soaking them down ( except the funky little skeleton that was left which users called "bones" for some reason) They are Meth amphetamine hydrochloride. Same stuff that used to be in Vicks inhalers....remember the old "98% pure meth from 12 inhalers recipes?"

Monkey,,,, After getting my chest busted open in 2013, I never touched tobacco again. Cold turkey and done. Hate the fking smell of the mother fkers now. Makes me sick to be around them. Can't believe I ever took the habit up. If anything is a gateway drug,, it's tobacco.
Agree. Many are cursed with nicotine fits when around cig smoke after quitting. I had the same reaction you did. As soon as my sense of smell could again smell, they made me sick.

Was all of that at the same family reunion?

Hopper, I quit cigarettes around six years ago. I still love the smell of 'em. When I find out I've got a few short months to live, I'm gonna mortgage the house and buy a carton. First pack I ever bought was 20 cents out of a machine in a bowling alley.
The bowling alley....grab the chrome pull, the muffled thunk of the pack hitting bottom. Remember when you would encounter them at check out in the grocery....how many times that got me....no wonder they moved them to different places in the storre.

I've been blessed (so far) with a cast iron gut. I can eat whatever at anytime with no problems.
Big pile of natchos? 1:30 am? Bring it. My shoulders, knees and hips are original equipment and are mostly pain free. At 66 I think I'm doing good. If I stay below 185 no back problems generally. I used to brag I got down from mid 190 down to within 10 lbs of my high school weight. Turned out I was dying! After healing weight shot from under 160 to 180s. I can keep it to 175 and pretty much eat what I want. Right now life in that regard is good. Last blood work had my glucose dead on 100. Now watch me get run over by a truck running around downtown.

after my wife died my doctor conned me into taking ritilin...didn't seem to do much until one day I crushed one up to snort it...had a blast with the 180 pills I had...for some reason he denied my request for more... :eek:
Probably 'cause you was scratchin' at his office door two days later!
 
I've never been accused of being discreet... :cool:
Yep They hear him coming home every night
