::lights up a bogue::

i like the smell and taste of unburnt tabacco oOo:

I been smokin for 30 years. I expect ill continue to smoke until its my time to go. I wont go complainin and cryin about the tobbaco industry or anything else. Its a choice i made myself and i know the dangers just as well as everyone else. Point being, if you choose not to smoke, good for you and the choice you made for yourself but leave me alone with the choice ive made.

If im standing outside having a smoke and some jackass decides to share his opinion of my smoking habit the answer is pretty much the same. Go fuck yourself!!!

Everyone has choices and everyone has to deal with those choices they have made without pissin and cryin about it. So ill just go quietly when my time comes. Like someone said a ways back. Who the hell wants to live to be 90 anyway.

This from a guy whos pretty well into the second half of his life.

I show respect for nonsmokers and expect the same treatment from them.

I smoke occasionally while drinking/drunk. Maybe like 3-5 cigarettes if i'm at a bar. But that only happens maybe 1 out of every 10 times i'm at a bar.

While i'm camping or on vacation with friends i become a human chimney. I've actually cut down on the smokes and now I just do cigars. Their more expensive, but man are they good. I'm going away for 4 days houseboating on Lake Shuswap in BC. I'm gonna take 25 backwood cigars for those 4 days. Should be good.

I played softball for 32 years. I always enjoyed gettin to the ballpark early and enjoying a nice cigar while i watched the game before ours. I know what you mean. Theres nothin like a good cigar when theres plenty of time to just sit and enjoy it. Sitting around a good camp fire with a cold beer in hand.
