I got it Clinton! here's the scam.

Call up the newspaper and tell 'em that since that photo, you're wracked with guilt about being a smoker in an "angry non-smokers world." Tell 'em yer gonna give up the weed, and they can serialize your struggle. Go meet with the most agressive anti-smoking lobby in town and tell 'em you need their help. (make sure the news-photographer is there) Call the local talk shows...get on TV. Tell 'em "Irish music made me do it!" Better yet, tell 'em ya never puffed until you saw Michael Flately!

If all else fails....set yourself on fire outside city hall.

You'll make it, guy!
