Most of my close relatives died from cancer thanks to tobacco. Despite whatever fantasies you may have on the subject tobacco is very dangerous and responsible for huge numbers of deaths.

Well, just took a look at the statistics. If you look at all the people who smoked, the vast majority of them die by non-smoking related causes (bus accidents, natural disasters, violent crime, eaten by llamas). Therefore, one should conclude that smoking has no impact on how and win you going to die has everything to do with your genetic make up how FAT you are and ware you live and work, NOTHING to do with tobacco crazy crazy.

No. From this data, one should conclude that smoking causes one to get eaten by llamas. I’d love to see the FDA put THAT on the side of the cigarette packs!

Someone somewhere should make a firefox addon that blocks posts on message boards that have randomly capitalized words in them. Its bizarre how consistently that correlates with a, err, certain type of writer.

[Like this?](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7115/)

It’s only for youtube comments, but at least someone’s thinking about it.

What THE MEDIA doesn’t want people to know is that after SKINHEADS and BIKERS, those most like to track someone down and beat them to death without cause are GRAMMARIANS. In IOWA last year alone, 47 people were beaten to death with copies of the American Heritage Dictionary.
