I am the only sane person in the universe.

I just finished reading Christopher Buckley's novel "Thank You For Smoking." It was a good read. Nick is a brilliantly written character. I think he could have finished the book without the epilogue - which seemed to (unnecessarily) reaffirm Buckley's "Smoking is stupid" message.

So, I headed over to learn more about the movie and read: "Nick goes on a PR offensive, spinning away the dangers of cigarettes, but he begins to think about how his work makes him look in the eyes of his young son Joey." Which, I think, rarely actually entered Nick's mind in the book (if at all). But, whatever.

Don't die.
