I was really happy that the newspaper picked it up. She sent it out to a bunch of different ones. I hope more will follow suit.
Hey, old buddy. New Jersey goes non-smoking next week. I'm five miles over the border in PA. I now live on a frontier!!!
I bet I'll have trouble getting a seat in my favorite bar, four miles from NJ.
"Ole buddy?" hehe
Where did you hear that NJ is going smoke free next week?
"second hand smoke still disgusting and obnoxious"
More than one smoke Gnatzi has claimed my child would be better off had I had an abortion instead of being born to parents who happen to smoke."
I despise anything being thrown out of a car window.........and I have actually stopped my car and made a passenger get out and retreive a butt thrown out the window.
As to the soda cans, my property has 500 feet of road frontage.....I pick more than 2 a day out of my yard and the ditch, just by my driveway........and I won't get into the beer bottles or other alcoholic beverage containers, as well as fast food containers. Butts get chopped up with the tractor - everything else I have to pick up by hand.
Every time someone says that, they seem to think that just because they think this way, it is true. Well, if "I" found smoking to STINK so bad, I would surely quit.
I remember once I lit up a cigarette and my mom said "Oh that smells so good!" So, all cigarettes do NOT stink. I rarely find one that does.
I know that sometimes, a cigarette can smell like burnt socks. But that hasn't happened in a long time. I think it was just something in the tobacco. :)
The amokers are hanging around the front door?
Why?
I agree with you.
The whole anti-smoking jihad does not pass the smell test. Consider: 42 years ago when U. S. Surgeon General found a "causal link" between cigarette smoking and lung cancer almost 8 out of 10 Americans smoked. The anti-smoking war began.
Today smoking is not only not socially acceptable it is inconvenient and expensive. Today only about 4 in 10 Americans smoke cigarettes.
Question: has the incidence of lung cancer gone down in proportion to the decline in the number of people smoking?
Answer: No. According to the CDC (Center for Disease Control), even adjusting for population growth, the incidences of lung cancer has gone up.
What will the anti-smoking zealots do now? Will their next jihad be "Light up and prevent lung Cancer."
Perhaps we owe Joe Camel an apology.
One of the very few times I have ever used the "abuse" feature on FR was against a troll who showed up here and said that........that was about 2 or 3 years ago, and was the last time I hit the abuse button.
