You either need to get out now or settle in for the long term.  It only gets worse.  Pretty soon you will be making sausage, bacon and a lot of other stuff.  If you stay around here you better start saving for your new toys.  You will also have a lot of fun, eat a lot of great food, and get to know some great people.

Welcome.

Good luck and good smoking.
