"Smokers fall out and light 'em if ya got 'em!" It didn't take me long to go to the Base Exchange and pick up a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. I've been smoking ever since.

Short answer...foolishness, I suppose.
Me too. Flt 118. Jan 1981

It's just that simple.


It is possible to be healthy and be a smoker. You all do realize this? I eat well, go to the doctor, ride my bicycle everyday, rock climb. There is a big misconception that if you smoke that every other part of you life is unhealthy. I am very healthy... I just choose to smoke out of pure pleasure.
I may have agreed with you 15 years ago. Now I don't. I smoked 19+ years and denied that it was hurting me for the first 15. Now I know better.

Are you willing to give up your healthy activities because you can't breathe? It happens.
