Now, all you have to do is find the motivation to quit smoking, entirely. I've only lost eight friends to smoking-related illnesses in six years, and I'm pissed as hell at the tobacco companies.

And before you tell me they "had a choice," no, they didn't. I'm over 60, and when we were kids, there were no warning lables on the packs, and there were radio and TV commercials with ads claiming that more "doctors" preferred one brand or another, as well as all the glamorization in the movies and magazines.

Death to the tobacco Borg! :|


My dad says he started smoking because of the cigarettes in the rations the Army gave him.

It's good that everyone knows better now.

It's not even the trash that's the biggest problem. It's 100 degrees out and hasn't rained in three months. Thrwing cigarette butts out he window is a very real fire hazard.

Of course, I'm not a big fan of litter, either...

Well, I don't know how it is in Caliland, but on this coast we have had more rain than we can handle.

You aren't kidding ThePresence, everyday it doesn't rain here I'm amazed!

BTW, I'm not a fan of litter either :|
