  • About the only thing I miss about smoking is not having a lighter on me all the time. Often quite useful.
  • I'll second that. Today is day seven on the patch, and if my wife wouldn't kill me, I'd almost start smoking again just to have a reason to carry one of these. But if I quit six months, I get a new PC. Seems like a fair trade.
  • Ditto to both of you above. I haven't had a coffin-nail since July 13th, 2001 (I keep it as a weekly reminder on my Palm Pilot), but sometimes carry my Zippo as a "pocket-plaything"; I just like the feel of it in my hands. Hasn't incited me to smoke, either. But seriously. I lurve that Zippo-Cam. My wife says she does not understand for a New York Minute why I would want one of Those Things. Exactly!
  • Can you light a cigarette with it?
  • I doubt it. you'd have to do some Bodian sleight-of-hand if outed.
  • Bondian! (yeesh)
  • damn thing doesn't seem to make fire, though.
  • which is basically what Dizzy just said. duh.
  • Today is day seven on the patch Bon courage. It will get easier. A little easier every day. Pretty soon you'll start noticing that your wind is a bit longer.
  • My wind gets a lot longer after Mexican Night at our local cafe; should I wear a patch for that?
