That's a pretty unfair statement Purple Gurl. I am sure you have some bad habits.

As for the people in the story. What a bunch of idiots.

None involving drugs, drink, cigarettes, nor sex. Cigarettes don't go in your mouth by themselves nor light themselves. And I don't know any intelligent person who has ever smoked for a first time.

What statement? Statements NEVER end in question marks. And the reporters had no need to call it out as stupid smoking. If that is stupid smoking, then what is intelligent smoking? When you feel you must use a qualifier, there is always at least 1 opposite or other alternative.

Exactly. While I don't consider any smoking particularly smart, some is certainly worse than others. Like the guy who burned down an apartment complex because he dropped a cigarette (or more likely a crack pipe or joint), and then used a lighter or candle to look under the bed for it. Then he panicked and ran 2 buildings over to get to a phone when there was an extinguisher outside his door.

Or the guy who lived next door to me in another town. I was up on the PC and the fire department knocked on my door and asked if I had anything on fire. I said no, and they went to the next door. The guy there passed out drunk with a cigarette. The fire department threw his smoldering mattress outside, and a few hours later, the landlord threw him out too.

I know I deserve a better class of reading material.
Thinking in a previous life I was a chronic shoplifter or something...

Exactly. And a little word play since everyone seems to like to take medications for things. "I'm not really a thief, I just have a chemical imbalance, and the doctor wants me to take something for it."

I like a bumper sticker which parodied the prescription medication commercials. "Ask your doctor if medical advice given on television commercials is right for you."

You mean the itching, hot flashes, and flushing? I've taken too much niacin before. Those symptoms should pass rather quickly.

I guessing you need it for health reasons, The healthiest thing you can consume is European Bilberry, and If your doing homemade bread, grow spelt or speltz the name varies. I am terrified for Middle class and poor America at what I hear coming out of wall street about rising food prices, I dont expect the Neo cons to care, and I know the democrats will be vapor locked on defending this imbecile they put in office. I know that the hearts of the Tea party types are with America But I see rinsed Priapus and the neo con zionist shutting out in favor of the starving rich. ask yourself with this big change in power why has the patriot act not been repealed ? Why hasnt the border been closed ? why are thye still allowing immigrants from places like somalia where the murdered our soldiers (of all colors) who were there to feed their kids ?
