Good afternoon gentlemen.  Back to being NJDave (for two weeks anyway)

Hey there, Mr.Atlantic. You bring back any souvenirs from the old country?
None that I didn't piss out already.
Duty free alcohol is rarely a bargain.
Actually I did get scarfs and Christmas ornaments for my daughter and DIL.

I won a bid on FS for a 5 pack of CLE Conn. for $13.  I requested the consolidation shipping for next week, so I'm looking at singles to bid on to add to my shipment.  I'm looking at the Four Kicks for $3.00, should I add one or not..?
For $3, I would - good mornin Dad

+1... $3 is the sweet spot for those, imo since 5ers usually go between 13-15 regularly.

Just to clarify, FS is Famous/CigarAuctioneer?
Yes, FS is Famous Smoke Shop Auction site.  It's the one I'm used to using, so it's my go to spot.  I just hope this consolidation shipping works and everything goes into one box at one shipping price.. :)
Did you set up a once a week shipping day?

Well, that was a nice thought, but I was thinking more of some red headed twins... ya, know... more like Dean's Christmas list.  ;)

Good mornin gents - T.G.I.F.
Good morning, Shaun.  Have you fully recuperated?
I did, but then I did this stupid shit called running yesterday and now my ankle is sore - I think this is a sign...  Good morning Tony
how many times do i have to tell you guys, , the only sanctioned exercise is the 1 pint beer curls,
from the bar to your mouth.  one arm slightly bent, is all that usually has to move.
good what's left of the morning to you one and all.
Sounds like a fine regimen to me.  You should occasionally cross train with the 1 1/2 oz cling and jerks.

It must be regional....in all the times I've been I don't think I've ever seen a ginger in Tullamore, and rarely in Dublin.

Enjoying an Mbombay and a commie coffee in an unchristian cup that I just picked up after some errands.  Very tasty Connecticut shade, but a bit pricy for regular consumption.

Met the warden for lunch at the Catfish Parlor then got the grocery shopping done followed by a stop at the heart pharmacy and now time for a cigar as soon as I blow the leaves aff the patio. 

Don't take retirement lightly, based on my practice it is going to be hard work.

Deadbeats..., my wife has 2 of them, brothers.

Her one brother retired at the age of 16.  Came home from school, sat down in front of the tv and didn't move for 5 years.  His father stopped buying him cigarettes and he realized if he wanted to smoke, he had to find money.  He did an occasional odd job but found stealing and hocking his fathers Snap On and Craftsman tools was easier.

Years later his girlfriend that he was sponging off of moved to Nevada.  He begged his mother for $4,000 to move to Arizona to get a job and live with his girlfriend.  Since living with his girlfriend worked so well, she gave him the money.  Three months later he called for more money.  It seems that his girlfriend didn't want him, so he just to a $4,000 vacation in Los Vegas. She sent him a bus ticket to get home.

Years later he found a job in Hawaii working on a fishing boat.  He begged my sister-in-law for $4,500 for a new start in Hawaii.  He got the job and later found out that the guy that owned the fishing boat only wanted to drink and not work.  So they drank up the remaining $4,500.  He called for more money or at least a ticket home, but my sister-in-law refused to take his calls.

Years later, he's now 60 years old.  My sister-in-law gets a call from the Maui Police. They wanted my sister-in-laws address and Soc. Sec. Number.  She wouldn't give them her Soc. Sec.#.  The police gave her a case # and said, "your brother checked into the Maui Hospital, and died within 24 hours."  She asked the police for a phone number to call them back, but they would not give her a number. Odd...  Was it a scam...?

She looked up the Hawaii police on the internet and called them.  Sure enough there was a case # and her brother was dead.  They did an autopsy, but he was fine other than being dead.  They sent his fluids to a lab, but it will take 2 to 3 weeks to find out the results.

So basically nobody liked him, and now we have a body in Hawaii that nobody knows what to do with...? 

Anyway, that's one thing that's going on at the moment....
Well, that didn't disappoint. Sorry to hear about it?
Bottom line is it's nobody's problem, let him stay in Hawaii.
Within the first week of his death, child support bills and $300 worth of parking tickets have started arriving.

Best stay working so you can relax and banter on a regular basis.
