Right now I'm on an off period and I was able to tell John not to buy me ten candy bars because they were a bargain at two for a dollar. I've wanted one real bad this afternoon.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007728342316668058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-81097842738007432112014-08-17T17:22:03.755-04:002014-08-17T17:22:03.755-04:00I left out two words and not going

He took something<br />out of his pocket and inhaled and<br />raised his head and blew out smoke. I told him there was no smoking inside the store. He said "I am not smoking" I said "you have one of those electronic cigarettes and I am not dumb I saw the smoke. I ask if they run on batteries he said yes and water was also inside. It was a good<br />conservation. I never smoked but<br />when out with friends I would hold one because it looks so cool to flip the ashes and just it, I inhaled once and made me sick..so<br />that was my experience.<br /><br /><br />shirl72https://www.blogger.com/profile/17268124369207064149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-9928314565545036092014-08-17T15:12:05.591-04:002014-08-17T15:12:05.591-04:00Jack = coolJack = coolsalemslot9https://www.blogger.com/profile/07661640429528005183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-11545129499246086392014-08-17T15:03:00.505-04:002014-08-17T15:03:00.505-04:00Never have been a smoker, but I like the smell of ...Never have been a smoker, but I like the smell of a cigarette right when its lit. So true how times have changed; years before you could smoke in restaurants, then they would have smoking/no smoking sections, now no smoking at all. Hubby even recently applied for a job and one of the requirements was he couldn't be a smoker (he's not; he'll have an occasional cigar on a special occasion). They would even test for that. <br /><br />So true, Jack, we shouldn't judge someone because we don't know what they are dealing with.<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-64094215419182426562014-08-17T14:48:01.123-04:002014-08-17T14:48:01.123-04:00I smoked "socially" and never got hooked...I smoked "socially" and never got hooked. We were a lot more social in those days and I still never got hooked. As the price went up, I became less social. Joe smokes 2 to 3 a day of those cigar type that are the size of cigarets. He shouldn't because of his heart. He is not allowed to smoke in the house or car, but he has the car. I can smell it.NEVER in front of me. Nothing kept him from it.Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02272388069537746789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-10693018440476048722014-08-17T13:22:55.744-04:002014-08-17T13:22:55.744-04:00I understand it all.

Gosh knows what that will cost him in another 25 years! <br /><br />Now, wouldn't it be crazy if in another 10 or 20 years science comes out and 'discovers' that nicotine is good for you after all? <br /><br /> Mevely317https://www.blogger.com/profile/14786988262452989091noreply@blogger.com
