I heard there was something called herbal cigarettes which actors use in movies, looks like a cigarettes, acts like a cigarette , don't know what it tastes like, but does not have health issues.
Why would vaporizers be wireless? Even if they were, they wouldn't be cancer forming any more than cell phones.

For the 'herbal cigarettes', inhaling smoke doesn't make your lungs happy. There might be less of a chemical payload than a regular mass market cigarette, but it still isn't exactly good for you if it is the product of solids burning.

e-cigs have health issues, sure, but they have fewer health problems than traditional cigarettes. That's the whole point.

Not that I'd use either, but still.

...and yeah the wireless signals causing cancer thing is BS

What you REALLY gotta look out for is the low frequency EMP waves the government pumps out without our knowledge.

Don't forget that dubstep was invented by the government to control population size. Bass drop = cancerous.

I remember once an interview with the oldest living man (at the time) and the interviewer asked him, "What's the secret to long life?", or something of the sort. The old man replied simply "Daily enemas."

Now, I had two thoughts about this...

First, I thought "Ahhhh...the good life."

Second, I thought wouldn't it be hilarious if that old man was just yanking everyone's chain and hundreds, maybe thousands of people started daily enemas to add on years to their life, all in vain due to some twisted practical joke.

He could have said anything, especially if he had time to prepare his responses. Imagine the possibilities. "Well, I snorted tons of baking soda and drank vinegar martinis twice a day." There wasn't even a follow up question, like "What the hell inspired you to take a daily enema?"

Ernest Borgnine once whispered on Fox News that the secret to how he continued to look pretty much the same was, "I masturbate a lot."

He didn't even have the internet for all those years. Imagine the possibilities now. Fountain of youth is at your fingertips, in more ways than one.

Wife wanted new light bulbs. She tells me to pick up some LEDs (more like LEDeez, amirite?)

I go to Lowe's. Holy shit these things are like $6 each! The packaging makes some bold claims about each bulb lasting 22 years and only using 72 cents per year in electricity. I get only a small handful to test them out. These things are amazing! It's like I'm seeing things in a whole new light now (literally and figuratively). Gonna go back and get some more. Probably need 20+ to finish the house.

I'm also in the process of creating a "Music Room" in the basement. When I'm done my basement will have a Play Room, Music Room, and Game Room. Does anyone ever get any work done here? No.
