[QUOTE="Doc" Devereux]I'm a little disturbed by the idea of blowing smoke in people's faces. Might not some people interpret that as boorishness rather than a mocking response?[/QUOTE]
I no longer smoke. As a matter of fact it's 21 years (and 2 months) since I smoked. That was hardly the point! The only point I was trying (apparently vainly) to make was that if somebody assumed I was with the mafia, I would not easily disabuse them of the idea! You think I'm mafia? Whaddya think now, goomba? It is a way of implying a mafia connection without actually saying YES!, I AM mafia. Perhaps the person asking will be somewhat more circumspect about commenting about the clothing of a complete stranger.
