My son received a Eisenhauer silver dollar from my brother once. My brother noticed it in the drawer of a cash register and requested it as his change. The cashier said they get things like that often and it's usually from someone who raids their collection so they can buy cigarettes. My son thinks it's pretty neat, but he's kinda :coagulated milk: ed that I won't let him spend it.

You're right. You should have him take up smoking first.

Actually, he likes walking around with straws and stuff pretending he's smoking.

In fact, he overheard me joking about the candy cigarettes we used to have as kids... He thought that was cooooool...

thats fun to do with the fireworks thingy (i dont know what its called, we call it something in spanish lol) that lights the blackcats and stuff lol cuz it looks like your smoking, all the neighborhood kids do that lol

i had my fair share of candy cigarettes, but my mom kept a picture of two sets of lungs on the refridgerator... one smoker, one non-smoker. none of us 5 kids smoke.

[homeschoolmom]

Oh yeah, my son said he'd never really smoke. He just thinks it's fun to walk around like that. When I told him that we had cigarette gum with powdered sugar smoke, he wondered why they don't have them anymore.

oh... those are exactly the ones I played with as a child... when we were lucky, the ice cream man had ones that you could blow into to make smoke come out, and they looked more realistic

Yep... that's what we had. It's funny how they got away with selling those. They'd never make those now... Now it's all cell phones and baby bottles...

blow smoke? AWESOME

[jp2_rules]

smoking is soo nasty....i think i smoked a pack a day all summer --- second hand, from the guys i worked with. i can't stand cigarettes....i'll smoke an occasional (as in like once or twice a semester) pipe (yeah, yeah, i know...i'm such an old man at the age of 19). and i don't mind cigars. but in general, i'm not a fan of smoking!

[zabbazooey]

I smoke

I'm going to quit I promise!!!!!!!!

Never smoked, never will. It might kill me. ( = )

[littleflower+JMJ]

ooh second hand smoke can be deadly!! i run away from it!

lung cancer is not worth it lol

I've probably seen hundreds of these pass through my hands, as they've become very common. I believe there might even be a third new one out there somewhere...floating around...
