"The city's finance department this week sent letters to 3,700 smokers asking them to fork over $1.3 million in city taxes from Internet tobacco purchases."


$351 in tax per scofflaw. The bad PR this gets will only encourage, of course, a much stronger black market.

Off the subject, but I just did an inventory.

Before I go to work for the regular four-day, twelve-hour shift, I load up on cigarettes and crank out as many as I can with what little time I have. I have several little plastic containers that can hold 40 cigarettes each. I filled up two of them and stuck one in my work jacket.

Well, it's not the third day of work and just out of curiosity, I did an inventory of my cigarettes. There's still twenty-two cigarettes in the plastic box and two in the metal pocket case.

I've only smoked EIGHTEEN cigarettes in THREE DAYS!!!

I used to go through a pack a day.

Fellow FReeper smokers, ROLL YOUR OWN!!!! You will smoke less and save $$$!!!!!
