THE BROWNS BOARD

Cigarettes and the nanny state


Recommended Posts

Don't know how many of you guys smoke cigarettes. I can't imagine that a pack of Newports a day is any worse for you than sitting on the couch 24/7 waiting for a Biden check and eating macaroni and cheese you bought with your food stamps but...

I quit smoking 5 years ago... I started out with Newports... Went to Marlboro... Smoked Winston for years.. Then smoked whatever was bargain Menthol or Salem ultra lights... Glad that I quit... However I do miss it at times... it was a huge part of my persona...

It's meant to discriminate against the blacks.   (At least that's what some liberals think).

I have heard things similar to that and I know who's big on smoking Kool and Newports, on the other hand 30 plus years ago when I used to smoke I smoke menthol cigarettes. Originally camel filters but I did switch to True menthol.

When I was a  kid, my cousin and I used to go hang out in a private apple orchard, eating an apple, watching cars go by, people go by. One day, he stole two cigarettes from his parents, a nearly empty package, they were Winstons, I think....and brought them. So, I tried one of them. One inhale, I gagged, and decided it was a stupid habit. Never smoked again. At least on until I had lunch in a student union.....
