I smoke everyday......at about 9 or 10 after the kids are asleep and the homefront is quiet & clean. We go to the chill room, turn on the surround sound, and fire up the Luke Wilson 6 shooter with a percalator and an inline ash catcher. That or the 10 arm diffuser. I enjoy the ritual as much as the smoking almost. I would think it depends on the person.......if smoking interferes with your daily life than they should wait or cut way down until later in life.
