What a joke!!!

pezz,
         you don't know half of the absurdities that take place.

[Lockjaw]

May I tweak the political correctness police by turning it up a notch?

[Goodfella]

Stay thirsty my friends.

[AmyHollar]

 

I'm at a loss for words.


But I'll find some.


So a cartoon depiction was smoking........smoking AND GAMBLING..........and someone felt the need to write and complain?  And the USTA took it to heart? 


I'm checking out of this world if Roadrunner stops making Wiley E fall off cliffs and Lucy quits pulling the football away from Charlie Brown.

[AmyHollar]

I'm going to point this out one more time........................AND GAMBLING!!!!!!!!!

[Jeremy]

No,but a friend that did send an Email to The USTA complaining did send me a copy of what he sent.
I agree with my friends complaints, and again thank you. Even if you had to be dragged kicking and screaming by the seat of your pants into a smoke free world.

Tell me something that he likes, and I will fight like hell to take that away from him.

Hey its a slow day for me!

[pezz97]

  I wasn't talking about you, just to you

[AmyHollar]

 

Take the color blue away from him.

[Jeremy]

Take the color blue away from him.

Carson was the one that complained?

  I wasn't talking about you, just to you

I know, but had to get that in before someone else did. 

[Jeremy]

And for the record you cant get second hand smoke from a picture.

[The Giss]

It is what it is, but my faith in life is renewed. After pretty much giving up on the Ashton Kutcher version of 2 1/2 Men, I tune in tonight to see Charlie Harper's "ghost" played by.... Kathy Bates.

Brilliant.

Harry Korn, will you defend me in the court of popular opinion?

[miss media]

What kind of asshole would complain about that?   

A person who watched members of the older generation of his family die a slow, painfull, and aganizing death due to smoking.

My generation grew up watching "The Marlboro Man" on TV every night on hundreds of adds.
Most very teenage boy wanted to be "The Maraboro Man" and get the girl.
Most every teenage girl wanted to be swept off her feet by "The Marlboro Man", and ride off into the sunset with him and his horse.
Now our hero has died an ugly death due to smoking, and we (my generation) are dying off hundreds a day due to smoking.
Granted "The Giss" and his cigar are not "The Marlboro Man" or even "Joe Camel", but lets not again glorify a deadly habit. Have we not learned any thing from the past?

The man who complained and sent me the Email has no grandchildren, but he is trying to protect yours.

The man who complained and sent me the Email has no grandchildren, but he is trying to protect yours.

Who asked him to?  Are kids reading giss' blog ?  Adults don't need or want other adults telling them how to run their lives.

People need to stop self appointing themselves.

Does this friend drink alcohol?
