1: Could you go the rest of your life without smoking a cigarette?
I remember this day so well. We were on the family farm and I was six years old. My Baba gave me and my cousins a tray of carrot cake and 2L of cream soda. After finishing those off behind the barn I was feeling good about myself and went past my dad who was smoking and asked him if I could have one. He was really excited and said he was happy and waiting for me to ask him. Before lighting it for me he showed my how to hold the smoke and inhale and when he finally put the flame up to the cigarette and I must have inhaled half of it. Then I felt sick and out of me came a stream of carrot cake and cream soda. I laid on the couch for two days filling my puke bucket. To this day I smell cigarette smoke and my brain still remembers the taste of carrot cake and creme soda - two things I can never eat again.

I'm right there with you on the hot chocolate, and I wish I had thrown up the first time I smoked a cigarette.
You were trying to hard to be cool at that time, my friend.
"Who am I, the Pope?" Hahahahahaha, will use that next time someone asks me a stupid question.
It's gotta be something regarding articles of clothing like special underwear, or that big hat.
OK, thanks for the tip!
You are so right Cal.
