$4 a pack back then

Thats why I quite the first time, I was in Seattle for some training . I walked to the nearest gas station to buy a pack. When I seen they were 4.50 before tax I walked out and quite for a good amount of time. Now I am back off the smokes, I have only had 4 since news years, its hard when I get to drinking.

Ode To The Other Cable Thread

We got started in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout

We been talkin 'bout cables and coffee ever since the other thread petered out........

Seriously as so many have sent me PMs asking me about my cable preference.....this is what I say....If you can hear a difference go ahead and plug them all the way in :mellow:

YMMV

Wow....unheard of...I slept till 8 o'clock. Just finished my first cuppa joe. We had a substantial rain last night and it has cooled off a bit. Got to go feed the lady friend's cat shortly.

So that retirement thing is starting to work, 8 o'clock is a good start.

Go feed the lady friends cat, never heard it put quite like that :lol:

drinking is a diff story...if im sippin some shine i gotta have a pack or il flip out(that may because of the anti si cotics im on idk lol)...

I actually try not to drink although have a very nice collection that will likely end up at the next klipsch pilgrim gathering in 351 days...

I do dip too...i sleep with dip in actually...its like xanax to me(not that i need more lol) but it does calm me down most of the time...heck i remember it being under $1 a can and im not quite 40...now its approx $2.80 per can grizzly...usually get coupons and that helps.

Ah ha..So you one of them annoying effers that quit then get drunk and smoke all my smokes :lol: Just kiddin bro lol I usually buy ya a pack at that point then yer wife dont like me cause you tell her i got ya started back up lol

You do know smoking is bad for you ?

OK just kidding, I smoke also, doesn't that just sound dumb, do people really think you don't know it's bad for you when they say that ? Just tell them, If I don't smoke what will you have to whine about ?

Really I quit regular cigarettes about a year ago, I only smoke joints now, it really forced me to cut back because I would forget where I put them I was so loaded and was always smiling. :o

Ok the real truth, I did quit regular cigarettes about a year ago for a electronic cigarette. It took a little getting use to but it is about 10% the cost of analog cigs after the cost of the equipment. After switching I felt like I really quit, I know what that feels like because I did it for a few months years ago.

All I get is nicotine now which is not as bad, not great but better than before, it's on the list of my bad habits which I will quit, or not ?

With the extra $ saved I buy alcohol and drugs, so was it better for me to quit ?............Ok I was kidding about that, sorry I can't help myself , probably the left over weed residue from my first time trying to quit affecting my brain ? :D

Nah my wife is the one that smokes, so she supports the habit ha. If I know its going to be one of those nights I usually go for American spirits or big fat maduro cigar. That way I am not a bum, who bums smokes from all my friends.

Gosh 4 packs a day, I couldn't even make it through a single pack when I did smoke. I wouldn't mind it if it didn't stink, or kill me.

Funny when I was 19 I really did try this, the problem was after every joint I wanted a cigarette so it didn't work to well. Now those days are gone, .................................................I forgot what I was saying, it will come back to me.

kinda strange smokin' dope is OK;

but, not a pipe, cigar, cigarette...

yeah...its amazing what people dont know about others once they are in their own home...and the people wondering and dont know what other people are doing are doing things that are just as bad if not more bad(worse)...Some people need to keep their status as clean so they duck below and others do not care and stand above....private lives of even the preacher...honestly if anybody other than god only knew how to sort through it all...Not that anything should matter as long as nobody is being hurt in the process...I better back off there or political differences or the like may be raised and following...

God Bless Everybody!! Bottoms Up!!!

I think none of it should be a problem, as long as your not imposing your habit onto others. They say my rights stop right where yours starts.

I love the smell of cigars and pipes, and tried them but have not found any that taste as good as they smell.

Cigarettes stink I know from experience but have ran across people who don't smoke who also stink.

Weed in some cases can smell good, I don't think of it as dope, it's a plant which is not processed by man only dried and not made to be something else as in poppy plants or coca leaves to change it.

I have enough years of experience with weed and alcohol to know, if I had a say, alcohol should be illegal and weed legal just by looking at the side affects, health, and possibility of dependency.

There are so many really dangerous man made drugs out there today which do a lot of damage and are extremely addicting it's scary.
