    Frugality and Economy

    there is a time to be stingy with your money, and there are times that your money needs to be spent in kindness and charity. just be sure to part with it at the right moments instead of being greedy. (that is what it kinda means to me)

    Cannabis as medicine for real, anyone?

    smarter than nicer? you didn't choose wisely ;) My facts are as long as people are opposed and keep opposing, I stand the good stand on my side of KEEPING it illegal. I will always do my darnest to be sure that happens. I won't wimp out and give in. Nope. and that is my opinion.
