I dated a girl who smoked L&Ms. The woman I live with now...her father
smoked them. I thought they smelled like something from the chem lab.
Me, I smoked unfiltered Pall Malls. Richard Farina made them famous by
writing about the Paragoric Pall Mall, and someone else said every so
often you got a Pall Mall that smelled of/tasted a bit like marijuana.
Hmmm. I thought it was only me.
I was in a tobacconist's just today, Barclay Rex on Broad Street. It
HURT. I've been "clean" for 2.5 years but there isn't a day that goes
by when for about 10 minutes I wouldn't sell my soul (or yours) to the
devil for a Gitanes. Bad Ken, bad bad Ken....
