Aw. I'm pretty sure I've a souvenir ashtray like that from back when I worked for a large company and you could still smoke indoors. I confiscated it when openly wincing over cigarette smoke became the latest/greatest form of self-righteousness.

Sheesh, I mean, moderns would be incredibly upset with the times of my formative years. I can still remember my mom's cigarette smoke in the car on the way home from grandma's while laying down in the backseat sans seat belt.

But, anyway... the world is just sooooooooooooo much better now. <Deity> help anyone who would look back and insist there might have been better times. I mean, OMFD....

Gosh, I carted one around for years and years, fully convinced it was going to come in handy again someday.

Nope. Can't even remember the brand now.

Oh, wait... "Viewsonic"? Was that a tech thing back in some day?

1984. 1st b day. Photo with my dad serving me cake, lit cig in his mouth. Uncle Larry on other side of me, lit cig in hand. Aunt Liz across the room, waving with lit cig. And that's just who was IN the photo.

I hadn't seen this photo in a while, but real thing.

Sounds like systemic nicotine to me! ;-)
