For those of you who haven't met him yet. Ardi is two years old and smokes 40 cigarettes each day. . .
Go to YouTube and search Indonesian Smoking Baby to find him.
He is right here in South Sumatra. Supposedly he is cutting back but, since he's been smoking since 18 months it is not easy. Ardi is seriously addicted and his mother cries at the terrors, tantrums, and convulsions that happen when her son is denied his smokes.
Unfortunately, but not unexpectedly, his health is deteriorating quickly. He has trouble getting around on his own without the assistance of his toy truck. The government has promised to buy the family a new car if they get Ardi to quit. So far, no luck.

Hello there...posted last nite but I do not see it here...oops. Being a virgin blogger, i think it got lost somewhere in Bloggerland. Let me try this again...and hope for the best.
Loving the adventure thus far from the Smokin' Baby (I think he is destined to meet Gary Coleman in the not too distant future ....sad but true) to the Karaoke bars and the seeing why you wouldn't want to frequent them...could be a story or two though....like you need another story!!! Keep those blogs coming..getting into this...love the adventure to be sure!!!
Peace and love from you BIMBYs
Love you and miss you tons!!!!
Can't wait to see what adventure will be next. You should save all these experiences and write a book...could be very interesting and entertaining. You could be just like the Beekman Boys and kalli could do your marketing...since we know you are NOT into that part of the deal.
Keep blogging and we will keep reading,
Love from the Coop...Ma Dearest
