A little excitement in the great north woods tonight.
Earlier we had what might have been a wolf. I'm not aware of having those here. I'll have to Google it.
Google says yes, we do have wolves in this area. There's a swamp behind our 15 acres. We're in the middle of a drought. I'm guessing animals will be moving about looking for water. I'd go for a walk to see if there's water in the swamp, but that's the direction the bear went.
From last fall, right before bear hunting season. So they prefer bears like this aren't hunted. When we yelled at it to get it to leave our yard, it sat down and stared at us. NO FEAR!

Dear people pointing the "Big Tobacco Shill" finger at people like me...
Thread 👇 Image
Smoking killed my grandpa. The man who loved me to the ends of the earth. The man who never raised a hand to hit me. The man who taught me there are good men in the world. The man who accepted me for who I was.
Smoking killed my grandmother. The woman who made sure that us kids had some decent clothes while mom was struggling to support us on our own. The woman who packed us kids in her camper and took us on great adventures. The woman who taught us modesty and humility.

Something some people don't know about me.
One of my passions in life is motorsports. One of the people I admire in that industry is Don Prudhomme.

Message boards used to be a huge deal and I participated in several racing ones. One year well known photographer, Les Welch, asked me to work as a reporter at the NHRA Nationals in Brainerd, MN. Les was a great guy.

Pro-Stock racers Warren and son, Kurt, Johnson were from MN. I was a fan. I chatted often on the message boards often with Warren's wife, Arlene. She was a very cool lady. Les told Arlene I was working for him for a weekend and she insisted we meet. Les set up the meeting.

In the last week we've seen CTFK's #TakeDownTobacco and PAVe's #ClearTheVapor. Lot's of conflating of smoking and vaping along with vaping nicotine and tons of other things (Pot, vitamins, etc.). Tons of support for flavor bans. As time permits, this will turn into a thread.
Years ago, all flavors in combustible cigarettes were banned, except menthol. Why did that happen? Who helped big tobacco keep menthol cigarettes?

Why is it that Matt Myers of CTFK would sit down to find common ground with #BigTobacco to negotiate tobacco regulations, but he makes no effort to work with #TobaccoHarmReduction?

My evening words for the @8pmWarrior
A thread inspired by a conversation held over the past few days and then noticing how many followers I have on twitter.
👇👇👇
WOW! 1990 Twitter followers! I'm honored to have each of you in my life. I hope the things we share with each other brings value to your day.
I remember watching the cool kids in school and wondering why I couldn't get 5 of them to follow me. Or why wouldn't they let me follow them? Little did I know, I wasn't born to be the leader or the follower.
