Crash rolls his own. He gets a huge savings over ready-made cigarettes,
and the tobacco has way fewer (if any) additives.

Go home and have a stiff drink and understand that life is full of risk.

How do you know? I thought the coffee was for her, if not it was for
someone, so sue them!

In fact, sue the suit with a countersuit!

That's the best idea of all, but not everyone is willing to take the
time to do that. ;-)

Honestly, I don't know why more people just don't smoke pipes!

They have the clear see through bandaids for smaller cuts. Then there's
the kiddy designer bandaids. For larger injuries the primary concern is
keeping the wound cleaned and protected so the colour of the bandage
goes out the window. I doubt many people care about the colour of the
bandage. On another note casts used to come in white only. Now our
hospital has casts in the neon colours. They are a big hit with the
younger crowd.

Obfood: I tore my hamstring last Wed. Along with the pain, crutches,
and tensor bandage, I have a good amount of bruising. To help the
bruises heal faster I've increased my intake of vit c by drinking more
orange juice and eating broccoli and sweet potatoes. I'm also eating
large amounts of pineapple. Pineapples contain vit c and bromelain that
helps the body reabsorbe the bruise easier.

I think you should sue them all! :-)

Next lawsuit (I'm calling it, folks) will be McDonald's getting sued by
parents and children because of the Happy Meal and Ronald McDonald as
"proof" that McDonald's is deliberately marketing its junk food to
children (I've heard critics of fast food say that Ronald McDonald and
Joe Camel are basically the same thing and that Ronald McDonald should
be banned...before you know it, the Ronald McDonald House will have to
change its name to the Charlie Carrot House).
