    Thumbs up Joe Camel,Marlboro,and I

    My cigarette pack has a warning.

    SURGEON GENERAL'S WARNING:
    Cigarette smoke contains carbon monoxide.

    Think what we are doing to our little ones when we take them
    for a ride with us.

    Also,we feed them.

    Soon we will be told..Don't smoke,walk only,and avoid meat.

    Joe Camel,The Marlboro Man,and I just wanted to give you
    folks something to think about.

    The funny thing is, we ALL focus on the immediate discomfort or irritation to us or our kids personally - smoking, bad breath, violent tv, dangerous toys, etc, versus fumes from factories or toxic discharge from same or raw sewage spills or automobile exhaust emissions or even backyard barbecues.

    Humanity is broken into so many separate segments at so many diverse economic and social levels that we will never achieve common ground for improvement.

    So, we 'Western' civilization types pick on who and what we can (without being racist, mind you).

    Has been smokers, and now becoming fatties, and soon will be, maybe, gas-passers or burpers or whatever.


    Humans are SO funny.

    In britain we call this the nanny state
    It will happen in America

    I recall being told off on one occasion by a nosy old hag for letting my daughter climb a tree!

    Drink good beer, smoke your Marlbro and fart loudly
    It didn't kill me- yet.

    Incidentally I think using the CO on the meat is probably harmless but in the UK we buy it from Farm Shops. North Yorkshires best nothing like it on earth.
    If you don't like CO on the meat wait and see what the do to the vegetables.

    It is, but they never said 42 what?
    Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."
