Opps!! My Bad!!!
...Smoking monkeys?? Good Lord!...
OK...So I went to the store today to mail a package to Misty and get another pack of cigarettes. {No, I haven't quit yet, but SOON...very soon!}
As I was standing at the counter chatting with the fella' that works there, a man came in holding one of those portable oxygen thingys and walked up to the counter.
Out of respect, I told him to go ahead in front of me and laughed that I was keeping the fella' who works there from doing his job...Honestly though, I just didn't want him to see me buying a pack of cigarettes...you know, with him being on oxygen and all.
So...to my surprise, this guy asks for 3-packs of Marlboro and proceeds to pay for them and can hardly wait to get out the door, rip one of the packs open and light up!!
My first thought was "Isn't oxygen highly flammable??" and secondly, "My ohh my... what a sick picture THAT just painted!!".
Isn't it strange how, with everything we know and something so "truthful" starring us directly in the face, that we continue to be so hardheaded?
Another victim of "the Marlboro Man", puffing away his life while his oxygen pump hummms in the background.
Wow...
