And while we're on the subject (off of your original one Brian, sorry) WHO gave these people making commercials the authority to use our children as their spokespeople? OOOH, it pisses me off when I see those commercials come on with some adult asking children to ASK their parents to stop smoking.
I don't think kids, especially today, need the frickin' extra pressure. That's worse than the lady from PETA sneakin' around and spray painting someones Fur Coat. At least she does the dirty deed on her own.

I was a kid once too, and I know I asked my parents to quit once or twice, and I'm sure they laughed it off. (silly kid). Their both still alive by the way, no cancer in sight. I'm workin' on my own T.V. spot, it features me at a bar drinkin' a cold one, and smoking a Marlboro Red, when my nosy neighbor walks in and asks me, "Why do you smoke?", and I reply, "Because I CAN!"
