Warning - Reading this may be good for your health!


Smoking ?

It is law in South Africa that every pack of cigarettes must have a health warning of some sort written on the side of it some where. It's amazing that someone thought up this as a way to get people to stop smoking - there is an advert that runs on the radio along the lines - "give me the cigarettes with the warning - DON'T SMOKE WHILE YOU'RE PREGNANT - because they are probably the least risky - seen as I'm a man..."

South Africa is trying to bring legislation that will make it illegal to smoke near non smokers. This has resulted in an absolute uproar from the smokers who say that it is unconstitutional to stop them smoking.

It has been scientifically proved that smoking is bad for your health, I mean just look at the following evidence....

Healthy lung tissue magnified 1000x

which should be compared with the following ....

Unhealthy lung tissue magnified 1000x - yuck !

I think the evidence speaks for itself.

[you can just imagine a caveman sitting around the fire with his buddies - picking up a rolled up leaf - lighting the end of it - sucking on it and coughing his lungs out - after his mates have finished laughing he thinks "let me play a DIRTY trick on them...." and says "no - hey - this is great - you okes should try this - it um - calms you down - gives you great looking yellow teeth (and fingers) - and it is my right under the caveman constitution to blow smoke into all your lungs (he says this while looking at a mother who is nervously moving her new born baby to the other end of the cave)" ...and all his mates then try it and agree with his sentiments exactly - and one wise man sitting further back in the shadows thinks - "jeez if these guys are stupid enough to suck a disgusting smelling smoke into their lungs and pretend to enjoy it - maybe I can collect enough of this crap together and go around to the other tribes and convince them to also do it - in exchange for plenty of buckskins - I'll be rich !"]

Be sure to tune in next week for the episode entitled "How caveman Bill thought up an idea to get millions of people to put a big square rock thing into their caves under the pretext that it would make their lives easier and made even more buckskins than the smoking leaf caveman" .....
