    And here I always thought that if my Pop had rubbed one out one more time before I was conceived the odds of me being alive would have been astronomical.

    You know you are old when you remember:

    "The amount of smoking everywhere was unreal. In the '60s and '70s, and into the 80's the smell of cigarettes or smoke was everywhere: in homes, restaurants, grocery stores, workplaces, restrooms, hospitals, outdoors, and even on people's clothes and hair. The smell drove me bonkers!"

    Oh, I remember the stench of cigarette smoke on airplanes. I grew up in the era of almost everyone smoking, so I was used to the smell, but the airplanes were particularly bad IMO.
