Shameful!

He hasn't even lit the bloody thing!

CR, that'd be the waste of a good cigarette.

Better than a bloody dummy! Even brings new meaning to the phrase 'Fire up the quattro'!

Should have been a joint. If you're going to try and annoy people, best go all the way!

About four years ago I saw a three year old Chinese boy roll his own smoke and fire it up. It was a series of still pictures but I cannot find it. It must be on the interweb somewhere.

The Sumai tribe (in Papua New Guinea, I think) start their kids smoking at 2 or 3 years old. They live to a ripe old age and guess what? Lung cancer is unheard of in their tribe.

Kind of poo-poos conventional thinking, dunnit?

CR.

We used to get sweet cigarettes in the old days.

They were buggers to light.

Huh? The wimps take it down and then claim copyright? I'd sue them for that!

OH! Would you believe this? The word verification is: Stillit ;-)

Parents obviously think it's a huge joke.

Thanks Anon!

The "trouble" with us in the "developed" world is that we apply our morals to societies that have different values, different ways of doing things. Then we express outrage and indignation when they dont follow our "norm".

Most of these cultures have managed perfectly well for centuries without our righteous interference.

Let 'em smoke, let 'em drink, let 'em shag, it's none of our business.
