    So he was all, “Does anybody in your house use tobacco products?”  And I said, “No way.  Do you know ANYBODY who uses tobacco products?”

    “Well I do,” he says.

    “No WAY!  That shit costs as much as GASOLINE .”

    “Well, I’m calling from Oregon and it’s five dollars a pack out here.”

    “Whoa!  it costs MORE than gasoline.  You don’t smoke do you?”

    “Oh yeah, we all smoke here.  Every fifteen minutes someone’s going out for a smoke.”

    “But what about the lung cancer and shit?  Nobody smokes anymore.  Do they?”

    “Yeah, everybody here smokes.  Or chews.”

    “I don’t get it.  How’d you get started?”

    “My brother.   He was older and he smoked.  I wanted to be like him.”

    “Does he still smoke?”

    “Well, he was like my step-brother really and I haven’t seen him for six years.”

    “So he leaves you hanging out there with that habit and then justs blows out of town?”

    “Well, yeah.”

    “Good luck with your survey man.  Sorry about your brother.”

    “Thanks, now how many people in your house are over eighteen?”
