California Smoking Ban Takes Effect
| CHICO, CALIFORNIA. Millions of Californians finished off their last packs on Wednesday, on the eve of the day that the new statewide smoking ban is scheduled to take effect. As a consumer panic hit cigarette retailers throughout the state, the second-hand smoke rising from San Diego to Happy Camp could be seen from satellite. |

Well…. cigarettes go up to $13 a pack tomorrow. Gas, over $6 a gallon, and then there is aids… Hmmm Just thinking about the good ole day. Cruising with a chick and a pack of lucky strikes in your short sleeved shirt. Could be an expensive and dangerous proposition? Guess tonight is a good night to quit smoking! Oh yeah… Beer is $13 a six pack here too… Well at least I can still get free internet from my neighbors wireless.
