This had such a devastating impact on her long term health that we are concerned that there is a slight chance she may not make it to the age of ninety.

It would've been much more effective to have pictures of cars, TVs, and vacation spots, to let the smokers know what they're missing with the money they're wasting. <br />Yup, sadly, money > health.Philnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-47122885297584929272010-11-11T18:57:18.439-05:002010-11-11T18:57:18.439-05:00I see from your job description that you know abou...I see from your job description that you know about me and all the gremlins like me. When the government becomes Mommy, it ought to be ready to be called Mother and having everything it says turned on it's ear. Oh, and then there is Dad. There is no mother without father, and he does what he does, call it what you will.<br /><br />Anyway, yep, I do expect to see smoking alarmism to go the way of the green dragon. Up in... well... smoke. A hail of smoke? Heh. (By the way, my mother did hate me often, still does... and loves me for that? Something to do with attitude and risk assessment. Uhrm, but you knew that?) *grins*Doomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04392444624210801173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-33443990553436280382010-11-11T13:07:15.662-05:002010-11-11T13:07:15.662-05:00Doom, ROFLMFAO.

Can you say... collectors? As well, 'kids' LOVE this kind of stuff. Plan on increases in smoking. Actually, I might (seriously) buy my past favorite brand (Marlboro) to get all of the different labels. Not a for profit collection, and I only chew, smoke pipe or cigars (and hopeful to get a hookah before long, but the neat ones can be spendy).<br /><br />Just saying. I hope they come out on chewing tobacco too, actually. Yeah, okay, I was a little Goth before there was such a thing and 'sick' habits die hard... like me. Ouch, somehow in there.Doomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04392444624210801173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-21702073351964027632010-11-10T23:09:17.460-05:002010-11-10T23:09:17.460-05:00Appreciate the link to our post about the Happy Me...Appreciate the link to our post about the Happy Meal toy grabbers on the Left Coast!
