    Smokes

    I decided to break my own set of rules today. I bought a pack of Camels. Before I even got one out of the pack some dude bummed one off me. Actually he offered to pay me for it but I told him to take it free of charge.He took the cig and said "Thank You". Walking down the urban street I lit one and I... smoked it... and enjoyed real flavor and total satisfaction

    I'm glad i don't smoke. Actually I'm SURPRISED I don't smoke. I grew up in a smoking family and household. All my family members with the exception of my sister al smoked. Mom, Aunt Uncle, Cousin, Grand Parents etc. I was ALWAYS around cigarettes growing up. Once I got out on my own with the XYL and kids, it never even occurred to me to begin smoking.

    I was rather distraught when 2 of my kids began smoking in th last few years... dont worry they are in their 20's. Just recently, they have begun Vaping though. It smells much better in the house even though only one of the smokers (now vapers) is left. I don't think the smell will EVER leave their rooms until we move out and repaint them

    There is no fucking way I would ever consider smoking a cigarette again. I smoked close to 45 years, and I believe it's the reason I have some respiratory issues. I must admit, I really did enjoy it, for the most part. If I just smoked one cigarette today, I guarantee that within a week I'd be back to a couple packs a day, if I could afford them, that is. I have a very weak constitution in that area. The first few times I quit, for around a six months or year each time, it wasn't too awful bad, but the last time, over ten years ago, I struggled and had a hell of a time. No thanks, I'd rather play with unstable explosives.
    A clear conscience is usually a sign of a bad memory

    Eating unstable explosives is healthier than cigarettes.

    This is true. You don't have to deal with the side effects for a long time.

    God Bless and glad to hear you have not touched a cig in all those years, I would smoke regularly but it is dangerous to ones health, I might smoke on occasions to celebrate the 1950's nostalgia... But beyond that its a bad and unhealthy habit and that pack of Camels I bought will most likely dry out and be tossed away.
