Not *completely* unrelated story: I was once offered a Pall Mall cigarette by Kurt Vonnegut, but said "Thanks anyway" in order to be able to say to my future children that I never smoked a cigarette. I had several friends who, when I told them the story later, were very angry with me for wasting the opportunity. If only I had known its health benefits at the time...
What is this? LOL...gotta love the 50's to early 60's! What causes "throat scratch"...too much fresh air? How about a double scotch straight up to go with that...make Christmas memorable for the kids? Santa's smokin' like a chimney and all lit up!

LOL Kat! Was Kurt talking about how Jesus was a secular humanist?
Credo: I don't know where LarryD digs this stuff up but this is definitely a classic.

Google "vintage Christmas ads" or something like that, and you'll see a lot more I skipped over! Funny to say the least!
And next week - if you're around - you have to do a 3-1/2 Time Outs Tuesday. If you don't, you risk salvation.
OK, that really won't happen, but still...
Okay Larry, if I have time I'll do one.
