A year after I was born. I remember as a kid cigarettes where everywhere. I have memories of my parents taking us to the curling club and while they were on the ice all the kids were dumped into a viewing area overseeing the rinks where we would play board games and eat bad food. The air was literally blue with cigarette smoke. The tobacco companies must have been raking it in back then.

In 1983, spent 6 weeks on oxygen in Santa Monica Hospital ICU with broken ribs and punctured lung. Only other person in ICU with me was biker squid who chain-smoked entire time. I objected to them allowing smoking and was firmly overruled.
