well the memorial was a beautiful service his 4 kids sang pink floyds wish you were here
AWWW!!!! That's so sweet!!
I was just reading a thread elsewhere where someone has theorized that folks can get cancer by quitting smoking. It makes me sad that correlation was even thought of. Sometimes the damage has been done and you're just going to get cancer....maybe later in life, but it's still possible. And sometimes the cancer is caused by something entirely different. My FIL just went through cancer treatment and has the all clear...he quit smoking 20 years ago, but his cancer had a completely different cause. He also has COPD from his long term addiction to smokes and his working environment. Quitting smoking didn't cause that either, he had that before he quit. After reading some of that thread, I'm happy to be smoke free....but I still worry that the Big C will jump up and pimp slap my for my 25 year habit. But I'm certainly not going to go back to smoking because of someone's supposition that it may keep them from getting cancer. If I get it 18 years from now, oh well....you gotta pay to play.
Good morning, Darrel
You got a point....but I can't just stand by and let him feel like he's all alone.
I heard once that once a smoker quits then in about ten years the cancer will appear. My thoughts is it probably would have showed up even sooner if the person hadn't quit.
I'm with Lisa, if it was caused by smoking, then, for me anyway, the damage has already been done.

With all the crap we inhale and ingest on a daily basis from so much poison in the air and everywhere else, it's a wonder everyone doesn't have cancer of some sort and even new born babes.
The world seems to be on a smoking vendetta of some sort .
Kinda reminds me of the Prohibition days...
no, I wasn't there then...I'm old but not THAT old

Your band of rabble-rousers have taken over the asylum and are now on the verge of destroying civilization as we know it. One could argue that the cause is directly related to the apparent, forum wide case of insomnia which seems to be most prevalent among certain male members, i.e. Colt45, et al.
If we consider the concept of Occam's Razor; the simplest answer is usually the correct answer, we can draw a direct correlation to their lack of ability to fall asleep sleep with their lack of intimate activities, (with a partner), prior to drifting off into blissful slumber. It has long been known by the scientific community that deep sleep leads to a longer and happy life. It has also been known by the scientific community, and a certain culture of people indigenous to a country shaped like a boot that when deprived of intimate pleasures, even for just a matter of hours much less months, or years on end as with certain male members of the forum the body loses it's will to live and manifests its hopelessness in symptoms such as insomnia and lashing out at those whose love of life is reinforced, repeatedly, several times per week. (It should be noted that this love of life enhancing activity was, for many, many decades, a daily staple but alas, age, declining health and the outrageous cost of certain medications have tended to slow quantitative, but not quality, production.)
As the officially ensconced moderator of this, what can only be described as a mob run-amuck, group of people your task is to restore a a level of class and decorum to this once fine organization. I fear that your efforts will be futile since you really can't be held at fault that certain male forum members aren't getting any!
It should be added that I notice Wayne isn't on here complaining about insomnia. Kudos to him... and you... I guess.
Been up for two hours, time for a nap, dancing and love of life activities in store again tonight.
Oh, yes, I'm still sick... that may be another reason for the unaccustomed slow down.
(Apparently Colt45 used a self image to construct the Voodoo doll... the short, limp appendage is a dead giveaway.

Yes I read that thread as well. The OP left too many unanswered questions about the cancer his dad and uncle had to even say if they where smoking related.
My own father was a life long smoker and had asthma. Yes he had lung cancer, but the type of lung cancer he had, while not helped by his smoking was not caused by his smoking. In his case being at ground zero when they where doing nuclear testing most likely had a bigger impact.
