No other fashion accessory is as functional and…

Also exotic dishes can cost quite a bit, since most of the…

Smoking is perhaps the most common form of substance addiction. Some like to refer to it as a hobby of sorts, but in truth it is an addiction and cause serious harm to health. That being said, I am a smoker and I think an adult, can do whatever that pleases him / her as long as it does not compromise the safety or well being of others.
