   	Well when you figure out how to get a high 5 or low 6 figure   
   income you will able to afford to return.  I am in the same studio   
   apartment for over 40 years,  I should have moved 30 years ago.

   	Yes well I used to say that I did only misdemeanors in public   
   but keep my Federal Felonies in the closet under florescent lights.   
   Nudge, nudge, Wink, Wink,  Say No more!   
   I only use medicinal cannabis these days and only take medicated   
   chocolate.  Using even a vaporizer or a bong burns my throat   
   too painfully.
