Woody Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 For the first time in 15 years ... the smoking rate is increasing. It now stands at 21%. The increase is attributed to the stress of the current mess we're in. (It might also be due to the leadership smoking. I dunno) Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
SivartM Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 As in, 21% of the country? That is scary.

Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted November 13, 2009 Members Posted November 13, 2009 I wonder how old that photo is... I didn't think he smoked in public... Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony. Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?
Woody Posted November 13, 2009 Author Posted November 13, 2009 He didn't have gray hair until he got into office. Ha Ha. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Woody Posted November 14, 2009 Author Posted November 14, 2009 Good Point. He does like 'change' so maybe his hair color is the only change we will like. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Members phkrause Posted November 14, 2009 Members Posted November 14, 2009 From what I've heard the reason its up is that women have been smoking more and more, but men have gone down. But like you say Redwood in general its gone up. pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Members phkrause Posted November 14, 2009 Members Posted November 14, 2009 That seems about right dgrimm. pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Members phkrause Posted November 14, 2009 Members Posted November 14, 2009 Absolutely dgrimm. I think alot start out smoking because of peer pressure, and than can't quit because they are now hooked. Its one of the most discussing habits, with chewing tobacco, that we have around us. I can't stand the smell of cigarette smoke at all. pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
