Something about last week’s harrowing news made me think a lot about my own high school days. We drank, had parties, but the vice that stands out was smoking cigarettes. It’s weird how much smoking was a part of seemingly everyone’s life and how now it has basically disappeared. A pack of your favorite brand was as ubiquitous as cel phones are now. I have such indelible associations with a slew of brands. Camel lights was a new entry when I was in high school. They had yet to introduce the cartoon camel that was supposedly aimed at young kids but had a campaign with a curly haired dude that was a sort of an Indiana Jones explorer or archaeologist. I smoked them in 11th grade because they evoked old school dudes like Bogart and Cagney. I stopped smoking in mid early twenties with no apparent long term effects but the memories, like the odor in my clothes and hair, linger on.
