Post The Girl with Emphysema
Worth a laugh (with apologies to the smokers among us, and to Antônio Carlos Jobim):

Thanks, Marty, that was ... well, that was.
I got reminded of the Family Guy episode where Peter and Brian get the tour of the giant fast food burger company, and saw the posters from years past: "Back then, our value meal consisted of a hamburger, a cup of coffee, and a Lucky Strike."

Great. I've used that title when I teach that song as well as Girl From Iwo Jima. Funny

That's great! Yeah, I grew up in smoke-filled rooms ('till I was 18). Neither me nor my siblings smoke. My step-siblings, they smoke, or used to.

People should just vape. No cancer risk (I think).

"Big Yellow teeth."

Yep, I'm ready to give em up. Should become a jazz club classic.

Just discovered this - hilarious. Sent to all my friends who smoke - not in an unkind way, only trying to save their lives, obviously!

Reminds me of my two favourite smoking jokes:

Interviewer to gritty blues singer: Have you smoked all your life?
Gritty blues singer: Not yet.

Visitor to back street, unlicensed music venue: I see people are smoking, do you have a no smoking area?
Doorman: You better lie on the floor.
