My last cigarette was smoked about 1950 (I'm 89 years old) and my lasting memory was being aware of a strange taste in my mouth when I woke in the morning. The strange taste was the absence of tobacco tar. Last July I had a short stay in a hospital because of a blood situation and my doctor suggested that I give up drinking because of alcohol being an irritant to the digestive system. I followed his suggestion and it was the first time since I was 17 years old that I abstained (that is other than a 27 day voyage aboard a US Navy ship).
I am keeping the bottlers of cranberry and grapefruit juices in a profitable condition. Good luck to all of you trying to toss a habit.
