Salutations fellow snuffers. Some of the “Old-Timers” here may remember that cranky old geezer named “Mountain Man” - well I’m here to tell ya He’s Risen from the Grave! I am that old geezer formerly known as mountain man, but I haven’t been here for something like 3 years, and wouldn’t ya know it I plum fergot my password! So I jist signed up with new nic “FrigginSantaClaus” - I couldn’t think of anything better at the moment, I wuz All-Fired-Up! Hellfire and Brimstone!! Flames shootin’ outta my ears! Seems some “Mr.Goody-Two-Shoes-Politician-with-a-Corncob-Shoved-up-His-Arse” decided he knows what’s best fer the whole dangded world, done passed some stupid PACT ACT, now I can’t git my favorite snuffs!!! What does that mean? Secret underground snuff dealers selling snuff fer $200.00 an ounce!!! Or do we all have to Move to Jolly Ole England? “I say old Chap, care to join me and my lady for a pinch”? Anyone care to clue-me-in to the deal and tell me jist exactly what we’re gonna do? Is there any place still selling snuff? Do we have to order from overseas and pay astronimcal shipping? Can you still order tobacco “Ropes” (was that company called strikkers?) - I’m thinkin’ I’ll jist grind my own! So what’s the word What are you all doin’? FrigginSantaClaus - formerly known as Mountain Man
man you are starting to scare me dude.
LOL!
PP - LOVIN THE CIGARS!
I think it will blow over really. I hoestly think the pact act is an attempt to find a way to tax online goods starting somewhere that won’t be a real risk for them.
Not only that big eared goody two shoes, but all those other goody two shoes, you know, THE ENTIRE FREAKING SENATE.
What Senate? (sniffs O&G)
@the member with the odd name that make me think of doing nasty things with another; theres a few more left to pass on before I’m down to a personal stash. want some more?? 
Welcome back MM! I remember you there are a few old timers left on, onefortheroad, sprangalang, cstokes4, filek and me. There’s been a lot of new members come and go, but a few hardy souls who’ve stuck aound for years lol. Stefan
How do we know you’re really MM and not some FBI dick trying find out about bootleggers? Sorry to be so suspicious, but I don’t believe in friggin’ santa claus.
“Nicotine: (See [Vitamin N].) An alkaloid substance. Highly addictive. In small doses, known to induce feelings of alertness and contentment(?). Short term increase in reflexes. In copious amounts and with prolonged use, known to induce feelings of extreme paranoia towards THE MAN.”
Henry Kissinger once stated “…even paranoids have real enemies…”
I see your point and raise you this: “Just because I’m paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not out to get me.” On a more serious note, the ball is in the, erm, USA’s court, as it is. If PACT does get overturned for those few cases, that would make a precedent for more. And we might, not knowing the american legal system too well, see PACT demolished. Still, most of the international players have already thrown in the towel and relocated their operations instead of getting to learn the new walz. Apart from Toque, which is waiting for FDA approval. So on that end, you would be at the mercy of the local tobacco shops in your area/state. There have been *ahem* a couple *ahem* suggestions on improvised lifeline of forwarding orders from this side of the pond, but for now, that too is on hold. Please correct me snuffhousers, as I’m bound to be wrong.
I just think it’s impossible to know for sure who is friggin santa clause - an elf maybe? Mrs. Claus would have something to say about that, I’d reckon. But seriously, for just a moment … I have forgotten my password to a bunch of websites and they always are willing to send it to my email address. Is it different here?
Santa is a vampire! Think about it. Lives in the north poll where there is only sun for six months and he only comes out at night. Ever wonder how he gets down chimney?-- He turns into a bat that is how. And finaly why do you think he wears the red suit, to hide the blood stains.
Kissinger also said that military men are '“dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign policy.”
The older I get, more I agree with guys like Kissinger, Charles de Gaulle, Otto von Bismarck, Leonid Brezhnev and Eamon de Valera to name a few. Real statesmen, now we have…nobodies.
I used to work and live at Kent School in Kent, CT where Kissinger went to school (prep/private school). His family settled in Kent and he still lives there. Quite a few other notorious types have attended that school or taught there. I was a lowly food service porter that served the students and such. Seth MacFarland, creator and voices of “the Family Guy”, attended when i was there. I used to smoke cigars and do snuff then. I had a friend who was the sous chef. He always wanted me to smoke pot with him. Funny times, I suppose.
@mittens. The lawsuit against PACT claims that the the law is unconstitutional. If the judge rules that is is indeed unconstitutional, then it applies to everyone, not just the 2 companies that filed. Of course, the govt is likely to appeal a ruling like that, which will drag things out for quite a while. Could eventually make it to the supreme court.
This is about a case involving the banning of gay marriage in Mass. as unconstitional that explains, maybe, how it could go in the wake of the PACT lawsuit: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38154952/
