    I read it and this part:
    Doesn't even go into the details.

    Essentially, you are to light cigarettes for other people with a match. The other person, with a cigarette in their mouth, blows out the match. Each matchstick you have on the table is supposed to be the amount of children you will have.

    There are other smoking things going on during weddings as well. I'm not even a smoker and I had nearly two packs during the reception.

    I don't have a problem with it for the simple fact of I've lost count of how many restaurants, etc I've gone in and promptly left because of the cloud of smoke I didn't help produce.

    If the $500 million went to an advertising campaign with adults encouraging teens to smoke, no kids would ever start and we'd wipe it out in a generation.'

    So in China, I assume they always stop at one matchstick then?

    Unless it's a pink matchstick.

    In which case they break it in half, too.

    People in this state got so up in arms about the Legislature not doing anything about it that they passed an amendment to the state constitution banning smoking from almost all public places.

    Restaurant profits went up. :)

    This might have something to do with smoking but almost nothing to do with smoking tobacco. :D

    Conservatives want to breathe clean air, too.
