I don't smoke any longer, I quit *before* I suffered any deleterious effects to my health. Anyways, if you REALLY want to do-it-yourself and go beyond ROLL-YOUR-OWN, you can GROW-YOUE-OWN tobacco here at http://www,seedman.com/Tobacco.html
Of course, there aren't many smokers over 40 years of age who have the physical energy or aren't "winded" easily to actually do gardening these days.

I passed 40 a long time ago. I smoke 1 1/2 packs. I just got back from my daily 3 mile run. Just because you have one bad habit doesn't mean you do not exercise and eat right.

You would be very surprised at the number of marathon runners that are smokers.

You're out of your mind.

Sam Moore in Helly with fag.

By Dave Weeden 2000–2

Edited excerpt from  lescroupiersrunningclub.org  if you want to read the entire article

I can think of runners who smoke. The guy who beat me in my first marathon had a cig in lieu of a warm down. He turned out to specialize in 24 hour races.

Sam Moore -- pictured before the start of the Barry 40 -- still clearly enjoys his fags. He also failed to come back to me before the finish line in the last Cardiff Marathon (1992). He was 20th. I was 21st and ever so pissed off.

EXCUSE ME? I am over 40 and I see no ill effects to which you describe. And our summers are way to short up here to consider growing our own. Why go to that trouble when we can get the tobacco cheap?
