Re: NAR Board of Trustees

You really do think a lot of yourself don't you , Chris. Your opinion is now Gospel? ;-)

Not true. Drunk drivers kill thousands every year, so their drinking DOES affect me. It causes my insurance rates to be higher; it causes me to pay more for police to catch drunks, it costs me more to prosecute and incarcerate drunks, so your statement is patently FALSE.

I can listen to loud music without blowing anyone elses ear drums.

I guess that you can't read as well. I wrote "loud amplifiers at a rock concert". Many rock musicians and their roadies go deaf after years of concerts, so that one's valid as well.

Internal combustion engines are acceptable to you, but a million Chinese smokers half way around the world aren't? What a nut! ;-)

People have already told you that they benefitted from smoking, but here's one more benefit. It curbs your appetite. Everyone I know gained at least 20 pounds following quitting smoking. Is being lighter a benefit in your book?

Wrong again. I went to a concert on the Fourth of July at the Silverdome. (That's an enclosed dome) They had fireworks inside and I can guarantee you that everyone in that building breathed compounds that you wouldn't want to breathe, so there's another one. It's like shooting fish in a barrel. ;-)

If you can read, I suggest that you do so now.

I tried lettuce leaf cigarettes that were marketed in the 70's. They sucked.

Tell me Chris, when you go out crusading for truth, justice and a smoke-free environment, do you wear a cape or a housedress?

Mark Simpson NAR 71503 Level II God Bless our peacekeepers

No, no, no, Mark.

YOU sucked. That's how you discovered that the lettuce-leaf cigarettes weren't enjoyable...

It's akin to beating your head against a wall. It feels soooo good when you stop. ;-)

Tiger Stadium is still standing, but the Tigers (that single A team with the gaul to call themselves "pros") play in Comerica Park now. It's a beautiful stadium for the world's least deserving team. Go figure. ;-)

Gall. Voila. Brant. Stine. Moot.

THESE should be in the FAQ!

Chris,

Do you ever hit the bong?

Doug

All you have to do is SAY cigarette around Chris and you get a "significant...effect".

Doug

Trusses. I'll betcha he has an elaborate network of trusses..

Don't you have enough of those little Grrrrrrrrrammy award statues by now? You know, the ones made of lead and shaped like a certain porky cross-dresser. You don't want the mantle over your (wood burning) fireplace to cave in from the sheer weight (of the argument), would you? ;-)

His dogma is chasing after your karma. Good thing CT's bark is worse that his bite. ;)

Don't forget the chicken.

Bong ? as in a large drum ? no I have never played the drums.

did you mean something else ? if so I really have no clue what you meant.

Chris Taylor

since inhalation is NOT OPTIONAL (one must breath)

your argument is already dead.

and the cornerstone limitation on freedom is when it infringes on your own freedoms.

hence why murder and stealing and a plethora of other things are illegal.

unless you want to proclaim that murder and stealing are ok do not even pretend to use your below comment as a valid argument.

The one selling it does not count if they benifit. just like the fact that DRUG DEALERS benifit financially and people who hire murder benifit can not be used as a valid defense.

Chris Taylor

how about the rocket I would love to shove up your as as you sing rockets red glare.

Number one I said to nearly everyone. google it if you do not believe me.

I also said their are always exceptions. google that too.

point in for the other 99% of the people out their the enjoyment is a delusion brought on by the addiction hence why it is so hard to quit.

we are talking cigarettes not pipes (see what I mean by spinning) I know nothing about pipes so they are irrelevant to me in this discussion.
