Addiction? - Page 2

The problem with an "addiction" is that you need more than one, that way you can just say you have "hobbies."

In addition to cigars, I like mountain biking and whisky. All of these are expensive. But because they are "hobbies," my wife just shrugs it off. "That's what he does..." is the common phrase.

No smoking problem, no drinking problem, no racing problem. All hobbies, and it's good to have hobbies, right?

Hmmmm.

Look at my screen name. LOOK AT IT!!!!

In 2007 I started smoking on May 12th. By August I owned 200 boxes. I decide those were not the right boxes in May of 2008. By august I owned 150 DIFFERENT boxes.

Is this an addiction? Well I consider every day I'm not offering someone 18 vhs tapes for 1.30 so I can go get a fix a win, but yes its still an addiction.
