Just before my hip surgery they smeared some of that inside my nose. They said it cut the rate of infections down by 50%.
The nurse didn't have that kind of bottle, but the same medicine is still being used today.

You might be old if you remember using paper straws.

We were the 1st city in the nation to ban smoking in grocery stores, restaurants and other public buildings.

You could be sitting in the last row of the Non-smoking section of an airplane and the person behind you could be blowing smoke over your shoulder.

In the movie Groundhog Day, Bill Murray's character stops to light a woman's cigarette in a restaurant. Shows how old that movie is.

I remember going to restaurants and there would be a non-smoking section. What a joke.

I remember teachers smoking in class when I was in grammar school.

I know Esteban and M_Six are older than I am. What about BEFORE there were smoking sections in restaurants?

EDIT - I remember my pediatrician smoking at the desk in his office.

Miss Howell. My 7th grade teacher. She was usually drunk too. I honestly don't remember any other teacher smoking.

She sounds like a real prize. Nope, no teacher drinking or smoking in class that I knew of. Those were more the things I did in school. 😝

Never saw a teacher smoking in class, but I remember walking into the teacher's lounge once and seeing a few of them smoking.

I don`t remember teachers smoking in class, (I remember seeing them smoking in the teacher's lounge) but I remember going to my family doctor and he would be smoking during a physical examination

I remember going to restaurants and there was one section only. Smoking and non-smoking together
