Smoking Saves South Carolina Woman's Life
It is probably a first but smoking just might have saved a South Carolina woman's life. 
Brenda Comer had just finished washing dishes and stepped outside to smoke a cigarette when a 78 feet (24m) long oak tree crashed through her roof.
The tree landed across the sink where she had been standing just seconds before.
"Honey, I know you fuss at me for smoking", Comer said she told her husband. "But today it saved my life".
The tree, fell due to high winds and fortunately also missed the couple's adult daughter, who was at the other end of the house.
The tree cut the kitchen and living room in half, scattering the contents of the kitchen cabinets.
"I looked down and saw a bottle with two pills", Comer said. "I thought, 'Well, I have a headache, and there's two Excedrin".
