Before that I enjoyed running with my kids - I enjoyed very good health. So, thirteen years!

[Esra Star]

17. If you were a "normal" smoker, that's about $50,000 you haven't

burnt into your lungs. Well done.

[cwydro]

[ohiosmith]

[KamaAina]

25. Uh, about sixteen years

and without going into detail, it was something I really, really enjoyed.

[Xipe Totec]

30. 29 years

since I asked the simple question:

- Do you love me?

- No.

- She wanted to explain, but I said – there’s no need to explain; if you don’t love me, the reasons are irrelevant.

- and I walked out.

Forever.

[EFerrari]

31. Congratulations, ohiosmith! I went one whole year

got married, and went back immediately.

I don't remember the last time I ate chocolate. Years -- maybe seven years.

My son is wrestling with his smoking. He'll make it. I may try again this summer.

[ohiosmith]

32. Thanks. Good luck.
