wow guys, thanks for all the great advice. I don't think I'll be inviting him over to my house any time soon, but dont mind throwing my hand up to wave when I see him. I talked to him once when they were looking at the house but didnt know he was a cop. he seemed like a pretty nice guy. I thought about taking him a basket of veggies from my garden or something. another thing I have working in my disadvantage is my full sleve on my left arm, but I know tons of people with tats who dont smoke. I'm sure I'm just being over paronid. oh and the vape idea is great any links to some decent ones.
