Part 1 - SURGEON GENERAL'S WARNING: Quitting Smoking Now Greatly Reduces Serious Risks to Your Health.

I was wondering how long it would take them, but they have now done it. What am I talking about? Organic cigarettes. I'm sure they've been out for a while, but I finally saw them in an ad in this month's Time (front inside cover).

I mean it was only a matter of time with all of the "natural" and "organic" products being thrown at us. I guess these technically are "better" cigarettes because they come additive free, but really?!? I had to laugh when I saw one of the warning in the ad that said "No additives in our tobacco does NOT mean a safer cigarette" (emphasis in the original). I think we should just get to the point and label our cigarettes like the Costa Ricans (among others) do and have it read, "Cigarettes Kill!". At least it would help the environment by saving ink.

Part 2 - I am looking for a car

So on a more serious note, I'm in the market for a car. If anyone knows someone selling one that matches what I want, please forward me their info. I'm looking for a MT so that I can figure out if I would like to drive one before I get my next car. If any of the Must Have items are close, still forward it to me. Thanks.
