whistle (or smoke) while you work

Life has been less-than-funny over the past few weeks. But right now, perched at my computer in my home-office, I sit here with a smile.

Our lawn guy is smoking while cutting the grass. He's really efficient, both at smoking and lawn care. A cigarette dangles in his mouth, one hand periodically removes it for an oxygen break; the other steadily guides the grass machine. For him, it seems like all is well with the world. It’s like whistling while you work.

And for some odd reason, this makes me laugh.

Even though I know smoking is bad.
