That makes sense because when I was a kid about half the adult population smoked and yeah a lot of people died of lung cancer but it wasn’t a huge percentage of old people. And a lot of them also had asbestos exposure which I was told when I worked on truck brakes that the combination of asbestos exposure and smoking was very significant in cancer causes.

I know tobacco can kill. Could be the chemicals used curing the tobacco leaves,


This may be an ignorant question. Is tobacco smoke more dangerous than other smoke? I ask, because before the 20th century people lived in much smokier environments than we have for say, the last 60–70 years. Homes were heated with both wood and coal and many jobs required a lot of exposure to smoke. My grandfather was a railroad engineer and no doubt inhaled a lot of coal smoke.

I’m not advocating smoking cigars or cigarettes, but I will say that Winston Churchill smoked them most of his life, and lived to be 90. George Burns was also a cigar smoker and lived to be 100. Sometimes it’s down to the person.

The post was about the cool artwork contributed by the artist known as Sabo, in honor of Rush Limbaugh. Care to comment on it or are you just here to derail the discussion? Way to go Ahole.

“was around smokers”

I often think of my brothers and boy cousins and me at Grandpas house in his 12x12 den, watching football as he had a cigar going for hours and the windows closed at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

He always had a pipe or cigar in his mouth - killed him at 98 - well that and the bacon and fried eggs everyday.

Filter Cigarettes are one thing.

Cigar smoke = unfiltered cigarettes.

If Rush smoked cigarettes, you can bet he was inhaling cigar smoke. Not mainlining it like a cigarette, but inhaling them just the same. Not much of a difference.

I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Leukemia at age 52. Probably had it for two years before that diagnosis. After multiple rounds of Chemotherapy over a ten year period I was told I am in Remission.

Never drank, smoked or did drugs. Crap happens.

A Month after my initial diagnosis my 82 Year Old Father was diagnosed with Stage 3 Lymphoma. He went through one Chemo Regimen and within a year he was in Remission.

Before his Diagnosis, he drank like a Fish for 60 Years. Classic functional Alcoholic. He died at age 93 from a Post Operative Heart Attack after surgery for a twisted Bowel.

My Mother, a lifelong two pack a day Smoker died at age 80 from Kidney Failure. Her Heart and Lungs were fine and dandy.

Some people just get the short straw. That being said, I’ll bet the Cigarette Smoking over a couple of decades did Rush in. The Cigar Smoking later in life may have triggered something in his system for all we know.

May he Rest in Peace.

Some people are immune from their poor life choices while those around them pay the price for those same poor life choices. Being around my Mother’s second hand Cigarette smoke as a Child may well cause me some Health issues as I age. Time will tell.

The thing people don't understand. Stage 4 small-cell reduces most people to a bag of bones & water and they simple succumb. At least Rush went out at most of his weight, hopefully he was able to eat what he wanted right up to that last week.

But.

Given that, it appears they tried the experimental receptor 'delivery' techniques at the beginning, and after that failed to get to 'first base', they obviously went to the hard stuff with the known side effects, maybe 3D radiation too, if you piece it together there was at least one week he called a pause and timed out treatment; and one wonders if there was a missed opportunity to do the same at the end.

Lot of conflict there at the last 3 weeks whether the week he missed outright when expected was a treatment week, or was the week prior to the day he passed a treatment week.

cigars are not inhaled. I don’t get why cigars are being blamed.

>That thing is his mouth cost him 10 years of his life, at least. Was it worth it? That was for him to judge.

No, he smoked cigarettes until the 2000s and finally quit when he started vaping.

That’s what killed him.

The number one cause of death is: Life!

We all make choices on how to live it. It’s our God given right. Even the most clean living; doing everything right, amongst us, can and do, die young.

I knew a guy that smoked 3-4 packs of Camel non-filters and drank like a fish. Shots of Kesslers with orange slices for a chaser. Lived to be 93. Asked my doctor and he said the problem with smoking is that you never know how it will affect you. Some people can get cancer in a short period of time.
