Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

I’m not a smoker, but I’d say one of the neat things about having this habit is how long you can extend a cigarette’s usage – a single cigarette can actually be enjoyed multiple times, and by numerous people.  Sure, the best part of the smoke would be the initial user’s inhalation of the cigarette, [...]

Happy Cola

Friday, January 29th, 2010
