The Resume

    (September 4, 1959-December 3, 2015)
    Born in Ogdensburg, New York
    Repairman
    Began smoking at 8 years old
    Star of NY Dept of Health Anti-Smoking campaign (December 2007)

Why he might be annoying:

    Despite two heart attacks, blood clots, amputated leg and starring in an anti-Smoking campaign he continues to smoke.
    His smoking led to two heart attacks in his 20's and a stroke by age 34.
    He told ABC 'I can't stop smoking, I've been smoking since I was 8, and I'm afraid to quit.'
    He smokes a full pack of Marlboro every day.
    His body has been destroyed by smoking but yet he continues smoking.
    He is part of a very disgusting graphic series of commercials.
    He likes to hunt.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He volunteered for the New York's Department of Health's anti-smoking campaign.
    New York's Department of Health knew he still smoked when they made his commercials.
    Since the beginning of the Dept of Health's ad campaign, smoking caused deaths in New York dropped about 10%.
    His particular commercial caused an increase in calls to the smoke quitters line.
    In the ad campaign he never said he stopped smoking. He merely told of the effects smoking had on his body.
    The fact he continues to smoke makes a stronger point on how addictive smoking is.
    He said: 'I know I'm sick. I know how sick I am. I know I could die today. If people knew how bad cigarettes are, maybe they wouldn't do it.'
    His 16 year old daughter Sabrina, died in a traffic accident (2000).
    Ironically he has one leg and his first name is Skip and his second name begins with Leg.
