Warning - Lizards Don'T Smoke

This is a non-smoking area Lizards keep out Smoking is bad for your health Long tongues and swerving bodies are not welcome Cold blooded creatures beware Strike matches elsewhere, (California has sanctuary zones) Surgeon generals are lined up against you To decapitate your kind, decaffeinate your sodas Next on the list are turtles and frogs Fat reptiles are not permitted in NY City Smokers will be executed then put on trial Liberals are coming after you They love endangered species Ash trays are ornamental Kept in museums next to dinosaurs It was not asteroids that killed the ancient lizards Butt cigarettes without filters

Hi Casarah! Thank for your kind words. I'm so glad that you enjoyed my public service announcement. I know what you are thinking....but no.... I do not work for the public health department and God forbid that I work for any government agency. I am a free agent of the absurd. Have a wonderful evening. Take care. Earl
