Nice try, Moss.  However, your principal told us he started smoking because of you!
Smoking in the office was a big one.  When they made us stop I would sometimes take my paperwork out to my car and sit in there to work so I could smoke.  Haha---now they don't allow that either-smoking in city cars.
We also had a smoking area in high school.  I don't know if the principal smoked.  I didn't spend as much time in his office as Moss did!
