Chris,

And happy new year to you as well! Mrs. Hollifield is right, you're not around much these days. Maybe you and I should come together on an article sometime this year. I think my byline is big enough for the both of us. :-)

Yours truly,

Tom Wescott

P.S. I hear hypnotism is the best method to quit smoking. I personally know three people who've used it successfully. I plan to give it a shot in '06. Screw cold turkey.

Did you know that if a person put 4 or 5 nicotine patches on at once he'd die.

Yours truly,

I suck on twelve nicotine patches for the goof. I like the taste... I chew 20-25 individual pieces of nicotine gum and blow big blubbery brownish bubbles...I smoke six Pall Malls at once for a buzz....Kid stuff. Tom, don't scare people with that patch stuff...it ain't true.

Smoking for 40 years this year and my lung feels great...

Hi All,

A friend of mine gave up smoking about 15 years ago by going on the nicotine gum. He smells a lot sweeter these days (and no yellow ceilings at home, so his wife is happier) but he just can't kick the gum habit.

At least he can't inflict passive chewing on anyone.

Love,

Caz (who gave up in 1978 to pay off her credit card and keep her non-smoking hubby-to-be)

Jenn,

>Die?

>Why??

Too much nicotine can kill you. There was a case a couple of years ago, in rural Maine I think, where someone spiked the coffee urn at a local church service with nicotine, and a couple of people died as a result. One of the locals was found to have a quantity of nicotine is his barn, he claimed it was insecticide for his apple orchard. That person quickly became the prime suspect, but I don't recall if the case was ever solved.

So, while Howard seems to have developed a tolerance, I wouldn't recommend eating more than say, 6 or 8 of those patches at one time :-)

Cheers,
Jim

Nah.. if I don't cold turkey, I'll never do it.

People wanting me to stay alive was the incentive I needed.

**Nicotine withdrawls are evil** but being a psychopath is much more exiting.. (Dan is really really scared -- it's cutness^^)
