We never had a single ashtray back at my family’s home. Supposedly, my parents couldn’t stand smoke because of their weak lungs. This was the result of the marble and glass dust they have been inhaling while at work during the last three decades.

I don’t consider myself a smoker, but I really enjoy a good smoke every now and then.
