47, started, well I don't' remember starting if grandpa letting me have a roll your own and teaching me to roll as a toddler counts. Picked up my first pack of Camels at age 14 - first time I was left home alone for the weekend, never quit (despite many attempts) until I found e-cigs, then, never looked back, haven't smoked even on since and don't want to.
Now, you walk in my house and even smell of analog smoke, I hand you one of the egos I keep around just for such people. (have 3 one reg tobacco, 1 menthol, one pipe tobacco.) You smoke, you visit, you get asked what you like and, handed an ego with a mouth guard that I can toss when you are done. (old rubber carto caps with holes melted in them to protect my drip tips from your lips.)
