This young guy I smoke with calls it a"Genesis Blunt" ( we smoke blunts, papers are weird to me, but that's a whole other conversation NOT for TRS.)

I had to google blunt. I was a heavy smoker 40 years ago, but havent smoked since about 30 years. Interesting ...

I've never smoked cigars.

Me either, except for ... Swisher Sweets emptied and refilled with my own filling.

My Grandad on mom's side Always had a Kind Edward cigar box by his chair. He didn't smoke them as much as he kinda "chewed" on them. He would light them, tak a few puff, then leave it in the corner of his mouth for the rest of the day.

I used no know a couple characters. One always had a cigar stub in his mouth. Never a whole one or lit, just the stub. Another guy had a pack of unopened cigarettes in his shirt pocket but I never saw (or smelled) him smoke. He eventually told me it was his emergency pack after he quit. It was 20 years old and no good, but he had it just in case.

I suppose should he have enough of an emergency to light one up, smoking a 20 year old cigarette would probably encourage him to stay quitted.

I smoked saskatoon pie on the barbecue.... Well, wasnt really smoked, but there was a hint of smoke flavor. Made the dough and used saskatoon from the bush in the back yard. It was a little dry but the taste was phenomenal .

Simply Green mixed 4:1 will kill roaches.

Roaches do not like peppermint spray that much, it will not kill them, though it will kill ants, which mostly happens because of the soap breaking the water tension, so, it drowns them. if you spray raid (ant N roach) around your door openings, the greasy residue will eventually kill the roaches that get inside. Roach spray is effective against those 2-3" long black and red hornets too.

1 gallon of water
2 TBL dish soap
2 tsp of peppermint oil

I don’t do “safe” bug treatments.

For roaches: FC Magnum Maxforce. Gotta use a bait. They eat it, go back to the nest, die, the babies eat the body, die. Sprays don’t get to the nest.

For yard, bushes, trees, house, thresholds, baseboards: Onslaught and Nyguard spray. Kills any insect that touches it. Not great for the butterfly lover.

I get everything here. A bottle lasts years and it’s better and cheaper (once mixed) than anything you can buy in a store.

Lay out some cornmeal where they travel. After a few days they dont come back. Not sure how it works but it did for me.

IF cornmeal is like grits ( I think it is, grits is crushed corn, basically ) they take it into their nest to feast and when it combines with the stomach juices, it expands and ruptures their bellies and hopefully the queen eats some.
