That's why I feel so good about not having a good clean life. I've done everything that only a GI could understand. I put twenty three years in the military with half of that overseas. I also worked thirteen years overseas and never regretted that. I have had at least a booze drink everyday of my adult life except a few days that I spent in jail in Saudi Arabia for making whiskey. But in my mind I've had a good life. Those who chose to attend church everyday or have had a different life, I wish them well. But dammit I've had a good time! Would I do it again? Damn right!

Damn straight gene! Good for you! Who the hell wants to live a vanilla life anyways? Not me. I want to live, not just survive! I did a lot of drugs in my twenties, but regrets are for people living in the past. Not me. Would I do it again? You bet your ass!

Charlie,
Mom says to quit fucking up in life and come home and rub her bunions.

Charliedeltasbrother-
You are so predictable. I didn't realize you had such a hard-on for me, man!

Best of luck with that...

One of my favorite Dennis Leary lines.

"Well you know. Smoking takes ten years off your life." Well it's the ten worst years, isn't it folks? It's the ones at the end! It's the wheelchair, kidney dialysis, adult diaper, fucking years. You can have those years! We don't want 'em, alright!? And I guarantee if I'm still alive, I'll be smoking then. I'll be in my wheelchair, with my adult diapers on and my twenty-five year old non- smoking born again christian son behind me. I'll be going, "Hey! Make sure you wipe this time. I was itching all week for Christ's sake! And get me some more wippets. I'm almost out, you fucking pussy!

Brings to mind something I read somewhere, something to the effect of..

Why would you want to lead a dull, healthy life?? Just to leave a good looking corpse?? No one here gets out alive, why not have fun with the one life you get. Me, I wanna slide outta control sideways and crash, totally used up, into the grave with a drink in one hand and a hot young chick's tit in the other and be saying, "Whoa, whatta ride!!"

Damn, makes me want to light up a ciggie!

kerrcarto-
That is fucking hilarious!

I've smoked for 24 years and drank for at least 20. It aint killed me yet and I've out lived those nay-sayers that said I'd die before I was 30 screw them I'm 40 now and have 22 years in the military, most of it at war or training to be. God if i live to be 50 it'll be a fricking miracle(sp??), but at least I won't have to wear diapers again

Is that...can't be...Yes! Yes he is!

This doctor is wearing a forehead reflector!

Would someone please notify the Cartoonist Guild that forehead reflectors are no longer in use?

I remember my family's GP treating me out of a black bag during house calls, for crying out loud, but I don't remember him wearing a reflector.

Aww hell. Dad quit smoking in 1980 (just because he decided to!) he still had that awful smoker's cough after that, he didn't have to go on oxygen until 1998 and was on it continually for 3+ years after that.
I mean... crap. A lot of it comes down to your genes, and your willpower. Dad was a fighter. Otherwise he would have died a few years ago. He was living for Mom.
Like most folks, I just don't want to be a burden.
I hope there's a "government approved" device by my time.

THey say that second hand smoke will kill ya, and so I just smoke and fund baseball stadiums!
I was gonna add what kerr did, but he beat me to it. Fuck MS, I'm gonna live until I die!
