Thank you for the info and the welcome! By the way, that fluffy stuff in the air, it's not a haboob... It is called snow.

It’s something to try once in your life. You will either love it or hate it. I don’t know many people who love it.

Ever try diet Moxie? Had it a few times, believe it or not it tastes better. Lol

Not saying I don't like it, but moth ball is the flavor.

It’s been so long since I’ve tried it that I do not remember the taste of regular Moxie. Knowing this I’ll likely never try it again. I won’t be able to wipe my brain of this possibility.

TBH I tried to stay up there when I got out, but I couldn't find a job. I was able to get one lined up here so I came home.
