A pipe every now and then. I used to smoke daily, but I have a friend who has had to have his gums disattached and scraped twice, so I don't smoke near as much anymore.

Disclaimer: I do collect T206's, which were used to advertise cigarettes; however, I don't feel that collecting them encourages cigarette use, as the cigarettes they advertised have already been used, and you can no longer get baseball cards packaged with tobacco products.

Lung cancer is a horrible disease - if Honus Wagner did, in fact, have his image pulled from the T206 set because he didn't want people buying cigarettes because of the cards, or because they thought that the players pictured on the cards were endorsing them, I can completely understand.

I smoke & collect, I swear & collect, I drink & collect. I used to have sex & collect, but I got too old so I gave up sex.

I chose "no," but on occasion (less than a dozen times a year) I'll enjoy a cigar.

I started when I was around 30. A friend used to smoke his pipe while we worked on our old cars - my '67 Firebird and his '66 Chevy. It's a good association.

Default Smoke signals
I smoked a half a cigar once. Does that mean I have to vote that I used to smoke but no longer do?

In my collection I have bunch of cards that I picked up over ten years ago from a heavy smoker that still smell smoky.

That is all I have to offer on this subject.

Default Cigar now and then
I like a good cigar now and then, but shouldn't since I'm asthmatic.

Contrary to my name, I don't smoke. It was a health choice.
