mesothelioma

I have been smoking regularly again. Hopefully not enough to get mesothelioma, as that is apparently caused by asbestos, which is no longer in filters, but I have a carton at work. Save steps, buy in bulk. I remember the first carton of cigarettes I ever bought. It was for my father. He had been sending me out to get him a pack every afternoon. The errand sort of annoyed me, as there really wasn't any other purpose for driving the two miles to the nearest tobacco retailer, so I surprised him with a carton instead of his pack. Like it had never occurred to him to buy in bulk. The man had been taking in two packs a day for years and maybe he thought each one was the last after which he'd stop. I don't
know for sure. Dad, if you read this, please feel free to comment.
