I find it kinda funny, that after they forced them to stop using, "cartoon" like characters to sell ciggerettes, that they automatically switched over to using them,
to make people aware of the dangers of smoking.
(all these anti-smoking commercials, that use cartoon like characters, or the new one's with the "disney" type songs they are using) such as, the Magical Amount!...
Anyone else find this kinda ironic?
Did they steal the cartoons from the ciggerette companies, just to use them against them?
(Isn't that just as bad somehow?)

I liked Joe Camel, but I guess kids will smoke if they see a cartoon character do it *insert rolleyes (here)*

no one put a gun to anyones head and made them smoke, if they didnt want to start, they wouldnt have, the first cig i smoked made me sick as hell, but i chose to keep lighting them up. it was my choice, no one forced me to do a damn thing. thats my story an im sticking to it

Lmao... Same here. I didn't start smoking, because I saw a Camel doing it... and even when I saw the Camel, he didn't look as cool smoking as I did!
Besides... I smoked Kools... all about the Penquin.

Lol... I found that I had gotten to the point (once I learned how) that I would french almost an entire cig...
had to learn to back off.
(sinuses, yes tho, were always clear) ha ha.

funny thing about the cartoons... even though my old man smoked marb lights and i didn't even start smoking until he quit.

well, it turns out that my first cigarette (that i can remember) was a camel. can't recall if it was a filter or a light, seeing as that was more than 8 years ago. but i'm smoking camel wides now. ****ing awesome.glasses
