a) i smoked tobacco semi-regularly for at least 20 years - now it's been over three years since i've had one, i still think about them almost every day but just thinking about them is enough - hang on [165] you'll thank yourself.

b) i drank too much in the 80s. these days i like the occasional ale.

c) been careful about junk food lately, trying to instill good health habits in my two sons. i find it really affects how i feel. i lost twenty pounds (or so) last year by mostly just eating less food. best thing is to eat foods that are fresh, and colorful. eat slowly, stop when you begin to feel full. the rest sort of takes care of itself.
