In addition to being a cranky (but entirely adorable) Texas conservative, my old daddy (almost 70) smoked for over 50 years. (To be fair, he did take a few weeks off from it following an angioplasty when he was in his 40's.) Anyway, I knew the last thing my dad needed/wanted to hear was anyone else pushing at him about smoking; after all, having people on my back about my own former smoking had always irritated me to no end. Still, I figured, what the heck -- at least he'll get a chuckle out of my finding an issue on which I agree with his hero Rush -- and emailed him a short description of e-cigs, as well as a link to one of the Rush videos on Youtube. (I threw in a link to Katherine Heigl's David Letterman interview, for good measure. She's pretty, and my dad is a manI) 
On my way to the forum here, I checked my email and discovered he had replied. What he said completely surprised me.
Last December while listening to one of the Rush shows, my dad decided to try this e-cig thing for himself. And he's been smoke-free (thanks to SafecCig) for over half a year, after more than five decades of smoking. It turned out, he was way ahead of me on this one! Rush may be my dad's hero, but he's mine!
I just had to share his success story (since odds are good he'll never sign up here himself). Then again... he just might surprise me again.
