Pipe smoking may not be in the same ball park or even the same game, but pipe smoking is equally as dangerous as smoking cigarettes. The same goes for cigars. If you don't believe me check out what they have to say at WebMD about this topic. I'm glad Canvasback and George quit smoking. Jim developed some COPD from just 10 cigarettes a day. Some folks are more prone than others, and Jim did himself a huge favor quitting when he did. People can quit, it's not easy, but it can be done.

Socialism is almost the worst.
