None and I find it quite sad that a bunch of suicide artists are talking about their habit in such a boastful and flippant way.

I am fifteen years free of the stuff. Having reached a peak of 40+ a day, and 60+ with booze, I suddenly began to worry about every pain in my chest (usually indigestion) and every tickle in my throat (a slight cough.) It began to worry me so much that I stopped the habit instantly. It was surprisingly easy as I felt virtuous.

They say that nicotine is the hardest drug of all to to give up and always lurks in the brain. I failed twice, under stress, once when I lost my father, but thankfully had the presence of mind to avoid the hook again.

Now? I am totally non-plussed as to why I spent so much of my time and money entertaining the habit. They say that ex-smokers are the most condemning, the biggest antis, so to speak.

I don't mind friends smoking in my presence one little bit, and never comment. I just feel more than a bit sorry for them. That's not feeling a superior being either. Just glad in the fact that I saw the light and that I, hopefully, have nice pink lungs for the remainder of my existence.

A point which you seem to have single handedly proved without question

I was eating and my wife's step father came and sat down. Blowing smoke over my food. I asked her to tell him not to, he carried on. So I asked her to tell him if he didn't stop smoking while I ate, he would be wearing my dinner. He laughed and thought I was joking. She told him I was serious. He left. My wife smokes LM Red. She doesn't smoke while I'm eating, nor in the truck.

Quite the opposite, I feel, just relating my own story.

It seems that something must have hit with you.

Enjoy those things you mention.

The subject was "What do you smoke", not "How I gave up smoking and now I feel holier-than-thou".

Fair enough, if a few pages listing various cigarrette brands interests you then.

More interesting to a smoker than a lecture on the evils of smoking.

Just curious, any local brand for Menthol?

I don't normally smoke anymore, but if I go out for a night on the town for some beers with customers ( couple times a yr) will normally have a few with drinks
