Lee(the hick),

Being someone who has given up smoking a few times at the urging of supposedly disinterested family members (they really wanted me to save the money as they were sure I was going to carp at any time from their observations that I didn't seem to smoke as much as invest in cigarettes) and if I kept smoking then there wouldn't be any money left - such is the vastness of my fortune), I would urge you to continue.
But perhaps you could light up the wolf - that would be a decidedly different smoke that would bring you no harm and finally allow you to get onto the business of satisfying those smoke genes only some of us are born with; which the pretenders who buy their packs at the store one at a time, knowing nothing of the satisfaction of having a closet full of cartons, cannot even begin to guess.
And if they don't know, how can they presume to advise us.

I think my career in smoking began when as a child I decided that trying some of that fresh pavement tar after it had cooled would be fun.
It was.
Smoking obviously keeps you in touch with your inner child, and also disguises other unpleasant odors that may be lingering about in this world of Flatulists.
How anyone can argue against such a simple solution to remaining in touch with one's self and maintaining the harmony of assuring yourself that no unpleasantly distinct odors will afflict the delicate sense of smell is beyond therapy.

I am lighting one up now on your behalf.
