"Iwonder whether I belong in this group, because I never have smoked. I ama no smoking advocate. If you ask me, "Do you mind of Ismoke?," my answer would be "Yes I DO mind." I celebratethat in recent years, more places have become smoke free. For instance,in New Jersey it is illegal to smoke in any restaurant, except the AtlanticCity casinos. If anybody lights up a cigarette 20 feet away, I know it. That includes Gunnison Beach, especially if the smoker is upwind from me.
WhenI was a child, both my parents smoked. My mother probably smoked duringthe 9 months she carried me. When I was a freshman in high school, my dadhad a wicked cough. Consequently he quit smoking then. To make iteasier for him, Mother quit too. At that time, I decided to never smoke. When a freshman in high school is the ideal time to decide not to start,because peer pressure begins about then.
Because Iam the nervous type, it is a good thing that I never started. I am the type that would becomeaddicted
