    Assume, for the purposes of this exercise, that Blake’s surname is Schrodinger, and the the indeterminate (…gedit?) small furry cartoon non-canine animal is (or might be) either a spherical cat, a very fat otter or a(n) hamster. Is the small furry cartoon non-canine animal:
    (A) dead.
    (B) worried.
    (C) relaxed and comfortable about rodents running the country.

    I could set up a “cougheasy” and sell illicit tobacco products to the underaged. The profits should be enough to bribe the cops and order hits on the competition. The music would be pretty good, lots of role models there. Be much less attractive if they introduced Singaporean caning though.

    Isn’t it curious that infringement of our civil liberties isn’t a factor when it comes to choices such as euthanasia.

    Please excuse me while I duck out of the Dogonaut Lounge to pick up a packet of Sputum 30s. Yum.

    It’s like that Village Idiot People hit:

    Rotmans – your birth certificate to smoking pleasure.

    Just thinking of the paperwork, Firsty, If someone was born after 1999, but has died of emphysema, that is, they have a certified death certificate, would that then allow or prohibit them from smoking ?

    Light up a Viper – the best of them all.

    If I’m in Muleboro country, do I have to do that s0d0my thing in a tent with another cowboy ?

    Plonk, I’d be happy to. Do you prefer mild, menthol or strychnine-smooths?

    Zut, those Strychnines are so Kool that they virtually guarantee you and your pal the Viscount a Lucky Strike with a Camel.

    Another very topical cartoon FD, no doubt you will be the talk of the tobacco industry tomorrow as you were to food industry after your brilliant cartoon the other day about food labeling.

    PS
    My A3 signed print of your great The Xenophobiasensotron takes pride of place on the computer room wall now. Also made a great early Christmas pressie for a couple of mates too. (good hint fellow FD followers big prints make great pressies.)
