Good for you on quitting, if you've ever seen a smoker die of lung cancer you'll know good an idea it was to kick the habit. I've also seen a 35 year old man in good shape have a heart attack thanks to smoking for the previous 20 years. I once had a next-door neighbor (Well, actually, down the hall in the apt. building) who was 35 and looked like an iron-pumper (very fit and buff) who never smoked a day in his life. He also dropped dead of a heart attack. Who's to blame for that? I'm 61 3/4 (62 next March) and have been a smoker since I was about 19; at my last checkup, I was found to be essentially as healthy as a horse. Admittedly, I get a little winded when I pump my bike uphill for a mile or two, but I stop, have a smoke, and don't feel winded any more. But the Church of Antismokerism is really stepping up their attacks - I think it's because they're afraid of being supplanted by the Church of Warmingism as the National Religion. You do realize though that if you get hit by a bus whle riding that bike, your death will be listed as smoking related. |

My Dad quit smoking when he was 40-ish, and you know what? At the age of 83, he died anyway! Thanks, Rich |
