I'm ready for my closeup Mr. DeMills or

you may have my autograph if you're nice.

Local paper was asking folks for their "I quit smoking" stories, so I submitted mine (in August 1983, I discovered I was pregnant, and decided the kid was too young to smoke, so planned to simply quit while I was pregnant, and start up again while on the delivery table he he he -inhale- whoooooooo).

They're using my story.

Did you want the 1983 birthing wring, with an unlit cigarette in the corner of her mouth, or the 2009 world-savvy writer wring, with wisdom in her eyes?

Hot flashes can be sexy.

In a "grab ahold of the downed power line, Jimmy" way.
