I've never been a fan of ready roll cigarettes. I'll sit down and smoke a cigar or a pipe on occasion but packaged cigarettes taste like burning trash to me.
 
My father had to have part of his lung removed from cancer. My mom told him he could have one cigarette today and the next day forward none. He did it, and outlived her.
 
There was an article in today's paper about 100 years of the
City Manager in Salem,Virginia.
One story was that a Salem resident called the then City Manager
to complain about a street light being out.This was at 3 AM.
Later that day,the Manager called Public Works to have them
fix the street light.He then called back the resident,to inform him
that it had been repaired.........at 3 AM.

sooo true! When I tell some 'younger' folk we've adopted the three cats and named them Lucy, Fred and Ethel, we get blank stares. The "seasoned" ones break out in laughter.

About three years ago after officiating a soccer game I was approached by the 18 year old field marshal to get my signature. When he got close he asked “what’s your name”?
I said “Alfred E. Neuman”. I had to stop him from writing that down. He didn’t have a clue what the name meant.
I told him to look it up.

It goes back way further than that. It was in a 1936 movie called "The Milky Way", and some sites suggest it is a child's rhyme as old as the 17th Century, or even earlier.

You idiot! Don't write that down - his name ain't Puddin' Tame!

zoo.She was the education manager.
