Smoking

[El Kabong]

I tried dip it was awful, I played baseball when I tried it...got a hell of a buzz. I think boxers and mma fighters do it to suppress appetite and help aid them in making weight (the spitting helps a little).

I never have gotten addicted to cigarettes but I see how I could have, the gadgets and gizmos from the 20's through the 50's were quite nifty. For example I have one of my Grandfather's cigarette cases that is also a lighter...mighty classy.

Cigars are just right for me, every so often I'll have one and I've finally found some places to smoke them (away from my house). 1 place is a cigar bar, the other a smoke shop that sells tobacco, pipes, and also beer and wine.

I don't own a pipe and have never used one for tobacco, though I may invest in one yet. I've got a hand woven box from Botswana in which I keep pipe tobacco to make my house smell good...it would be nice the next time I bought some if it served its true purpose as well.

quite like a little smell of cigar/pipe smoke, not cigs though.

I've avoided any addiction to Copenhagen. I enjoy it for certain activities but I also go weeks at a time w/o using it. I probably smoke 10 cigarettes a year. Smoking pretty much coincides with the handful of times I go to a bar.

Never have, never will, no matter of how it smells good sometimes (for some produces), I never liked the idea of my lungs/mouth filled with smoke.

You should have heard the guy at the cigar store tell me about their cigars...there is a big similarity between tasting cigars and tasting wine.

i smoke like a train, totally horrible habit. 10-15 a day Camel Lights, it's far too easy for me to do. Because of local politics they run about $8.00 a pack (2nd highest state in the nation). So I figure I'm spending about the national debt in a year on killing myself. As for Cigars, it's been a really long time since I've had any. I haven't ever enjoyed one although I've have had plenty, tried with good whiskey, tried with craft beer, tried after good meals. I guess they're just not for me.

Greg mate, it's a disgraceful habit, but seriously you're still not paying as much as they do over here. Try the equivalent of around $10 a pack for the cheapest cigs in the UK, the majority of which goes on the tax to pay for your oxygen tank in 20 years time.

Personally I can take the high ground of never having smoked cigarettes, I've got plenty of other vices to keep me going though.

At least it pays for your oxygen, over here it's SUPPOSED to pay for it, but it doesn't.
