Rude, period!

It seems to me that people don't yield any more. All they do is bulldoze ahead regardless. It's this way with driving and even walking.

I've lost count of how many times our group has been split up going up or down the escalator. People just have no respect for others. They come in from all sides and slot themselves between us.

A few times, I've turned around to talk to my daughters only to find myself face to face with a complete stranger. People are so rude these days. Don't they teach manners in school any more? Don't parents teach their kids manners any more?

Learning about the electronic cigarette

I have to admit I'm a real noob when it comes to cigarettes and smoking. I personally don't smoke but I love learning about new things. Apparently there's such a thing as an electronic cigarette. Of course I had no idea but after a bit of reading, I'm a little smarter now.

There's the electronic cigarette starter kit for beginners. One of the best ones comes with a charger case that resembles a real cigarette box which, even I have to admit, is much more convenient than what some chargers look like. It's small enough that you can carry it in the usual places where you would place a regular cigarette box like in a man's shirt pocket or a ladies' handbag.

Some electronic cigs, I read, offer just the menthol or tobacco but this one offers a whole range of exotic flavors like bacon and cheesecake. Wow, I would never have thought cigarettes come in these flavors. How cool is that!

I must've been living under a coconut shell because I always thought of smoking in terms of the regular old cigarettes and never knew that electronic cigs even existed until now. I wonder if the electronic cig helps filter out some of that nicotine?
