I smoked Reds from 1971-1992

Weaned myself on a month long sail voyage

Didn’t pick em back up

I can help anyone quit if they are willing to be locked up

Staying quit is the key

“Still smoking ½ to ¾ pack of Marlboros per day, after 53yrs. Doing my part... “

So was I, right up to the point I , out of the blue, suffered a stroke.

Let me tell ya, THAT will get your attention! The Hosp stay and rehab was just long enough to help me beat the nicotine addiction.

Notice I didn’t say ‘habit’, it’s a powerful addiction, not a habit.

It still was hard to beat, but it’s been almost exactly 5 years and it gets easier every day.

Pre-packaged smokes cost to much, I have been rolling my own for the last 35 years.

They taste better and out of a can of American Spirit I probably get 500 smokes.

But if your one of those folks who prefer a tampax on the end of your cigarette you probably wouldn’t go for it.
