Re: Pun thread...

Cougar Holly,

Sure, go ahead and put it up on the pun thread... but maybe whip up a little "something" to go with it.

And don't worry about getting flamed here... Don't think anyone "lurks" here... or if they do, then my guess is that they aren't the "flamin' type"... Too mellow for that... :-}

BTW, I was checking out the cigarette price thing... and at its height, I think the price of a pack of smokes in Ontario was actually 8 bucks... over 30› a smoke... no wonder my friend quit. Also sort of interesting... I was flipping through a bunch of old family photos from the 40s and early 50s today... There's barely a pic that doesn't have someone holding a cigarette... Guess it was a pretty "cool" thing to be doing around the war years... Also, I always find it sort of "noticeable" how actresses strutted around smoking so elegantly in films of that era... Strange how times change isn't it...? (Which sort of reminds me of that old Bowie song..."Changes"...must dig that album out too....:-)
