I saw someone found Howard’s Notebook from Snopes.Com. I did a check and here is how they found HNB. It is a message board and they were talking about cigarettes.

I've heard of Dads who got cigars on occasion, but never cigarettes.
Learn something new every day.Cigars? No way. I never heard of anyone getting cigars for Father's Day. At one time cigarettes were a very popular gift. Heck, I bet there were people that got them for every holiday.
If you doubt me, go back and take a look at how cigarette cartons use to be jazzed up for Xmas. I'm sure you can find images online.

I am 100% sure that smoking is not good for you. I did not always know that however..when I was a kid I used to buy my dad a carton of cigarettes for Christmas, his birthday and Father's Day. Not only that they were Camel cigarettes. Smile
