Smoking in the Boys Room

This story seems like an anachronism, considering how smoking has been mostly banished and burnished with a foul reputation nationwide.  But coming from an era when one could even smoke in hospitals for heaven's sake, it's no surprise that smoking would rear its ugly head for younger folk.  After all, one has to start smoking sometime and what better time to start when one was young and peer-pressured.  I began to "sample" my own Dad's smokes while a freshman in high school, so I can relate.
