I cant understand how a seemingly intelligent guy would continue inflicting intentional damage to his health by carrying on with this disgusting habit of smoke inhalation. Some one once said to me , " why are you so critical of smoking when you yourself smoked for so many years " I replied , I have seen the LIGHT !!!
When I was growing up in the 50s and 60s smoking was considered "cool " sexy in some respects , just as the mainland bloody Greeks still see it as sexy and cool !! The Cypriots have an average span of life of some 80 years , if they stopped smoking the could live to be a 100 !! Give this nasty dirty third word habit up mate and do yourself and family a world of good . Those of us who do not smoke know too well that talking to a smoker at close range requires different style of breathing , you turn away from them and take a deep breath to last you before you choke on their stinking breath !!!
Ban smoking I say , legalise razor blades and introduce hefty taxes on mens beards , womens beards exempt !![/quote]
How dare you. Dont you think we pay HM Gov. enough taxes plus parking fines and all that?
Razor blades are legal btw. Have you began selling them with your wares??
I hope Yiannis grows a beard for you to admire.

Halil is my witness , the first thing I said to my son in law when he informed me of the birth of Yiannis , was " shave his mustache !!
Incidentally , taxes raised on beards could be diverted towards the treatment of unwanted facial hair !!![/quote]
Miltiades, do you know what? A moustache would suit you fine. Try it. The money you save on razor blades would pay your parking tickets.
