Ahhhhh...there you go....you've got all the answers.  Maybe you could talk to the Mayor and arrange some public hangings in the square.   

i am for public hangings as long it is on thursday in the downtown when the wandering diners go for their weekly shop/lunch excursion in ytown downtown spend a buc and hang a fag violator day.

The exact date wasn't listed but it sounds like it came out of the 1940's or '50's when tobacco companies sponsored a number of radio programs such as the Jack Benny Show, Dragnet and The Red Skelton Show.

This face        certainly does not imply "tongue-in-cheek".  And I don't know you personally.

  Run the whole lot out of Youngstown along with the companies foolish enough to hire them! 

  Boycott the restaurants in the building and refuse to patronize them until the building inside and out are 100% smoke free! 

We don't need the likes of these folks here in Youngstown! 

The smokers are no better than the 9/11 terrorists! 

[woozle]

Yes it is I have tried time and time again..

[Shar]

Congratulations sfc-oliver.  It is very tough to quit!!

As a former smoker I can honestly say; You have to smoke someplace.

The anti-smoking laws have gotten way out of hand in my own opinion.

BTW I have been smoke free for nearly 5 years now.

[woozle]

Dirty Smokers OMG!!!  I'm with Shar here.... String em up...

[Shar]

I would call the cigarette police and have them all arrested!!
