Kurt Vonnegut was recovering from smoke inhalation in a NYC hospital
today.It seems that Vonnegut was smoking a cigarette while watching the Super Bowl yesterday.He left the cigarette burning while he went into another room and it started a small fire which created a lot of smoke.Vonnegut, who was placed in the intensive care unit, is expected to recover and be released from the hospital soon.
