One morning, four years ago, something happened that I will never forget. I
woke up, and I looked at myself in the mirror, because I happened to wake
up in the bathroom, and I said to myself, "Dave, you have a wonderful wife,
you have a newborn son, you have a good job, you have friends who care
about you, you have a lawn mower that starts on the second or third
pull--you have everything a man could possibly want, and a whole lifetime
ahead of you to enjoy it in. Why not enjoy a cigarette right now?" And so I
did.
