Back when I was a twenty year old sailor and stupid enough to smoke I bought cigarettes for one dollar a CARTON on the Saratoga when we were at sea. In Barcelona we could go ashore and have a blast on three or four dollars. My pay was a princely one hundred and eighty two dollars monthly back then. I was wealthy.
