It is usual for people to make a 6 months “speech” of a sort, at least that’s what they did on the quittrain, but I am not there anymore, so who would listen to my speech? I am not a really a talented writer –in case you haven’t noticed- but I like to “tell” stories.

Laws limited the advertising of tobacco products in mass media, so Fred and Barney couldn’t sell cigarettes to kids anymore…right?
Wrong!
