I'm heartbroken, totally and completely! 
And if you believe what I just said, I've also got some great ocean front property right here in the middle of downtown Phoenix for sale............  |

Ohio lawmakers want to close down anti-smoking agency
ASSOCIATED PRESS
COLUMBUS — The Ohio House wants to shut down the agency that has sued the state to keep its anti-smoking program going.
A bill sponsored by Rep. Jay Hottinger, a Newark Republican, would put the Ohio Tobacco Prevention Foundation out of business and give $40 million it was due to the Ohio Department of Health for its own anti-smoking efforts.
COSTS ARE HIGH TO ENFORCE SMOKING BAN
The foundation sued the state to recover $190 million that legislative leaders and Gov. Ted Strickland had moved to an economic development program.
The state created the foundation with Ohio's share of a 1998 settlement with tobacco companies.
