Religion seems to have wormed its way into this thread too.

Bottom line for me:
  • Smoke if you want do, but do it the hell away from me
  • Dont expect me to pay for your healthcare if you get a smoking related illness
  • Dont encourage others to do it

What should be done is ban smoking altogether anyone 15 years and younger, from a specified date, that way all the newer generations will be non smokers, but banning it from existing smokers is just not on, I was brought up when the knowledge of lung cancer etc from smoking was non existant (or hidden), it was ok to smoke or not! If I knew then what I do nowdays I would not have started, I gave up 15 years or so ago!

Beer drinker Kapitan? Drink hard alcohol? Don't expect me to pay for your liver transplant if drinking related. Do not encourge others to drink by posting pictures of certain beers you like. If you drink, get the hell away from any vehicle. Eat fatty foods? Like McDonalds? Do not expect me to pay for your arteries to be unclogged from to many Big Macs. I'm not being a smarty here. Just picking your brain to think on the other side of the equation. There are plenty of very bad habits out there, just seems smoke is in the forefront because of second hand smoke. What about second hand intoxication, a 2000lb automobile and drunk driver at the helm?

I think we should elect Hillary, she we regulate everything! Then we will be safe.

I'm sorry, you played SHx for more than an hour, you need to go outside.

KP, you scored for than 40 points on Madden, that hurts the AI's self esteem. You can only win by 3 points, and no jumping up and down.
blah blah blah:rotfl:
