[QUOTE="Fr_Tom, post: 456019, member: 3139"] It is just one of those big cultural changes I guess. I remember as a kid noticing that all the old men smoked pipes or cigars. The cigars seemed to get chewed on mostly. They all seemed very happy with their lives. You would think to yourself, "If I am ever 80, I would not mind being that guy." They all seemed to fish and have cool things - old cars, racks full of guns. They made their own handles for tools. These days I can watch some goober on youtube with a bad haircut who has smoked for a month try to explain some packing method that I would have to write down to learn. I am not thinking, "I want to be that guy." I remember going to see my granny in an assisted living place back in the 70's. My father and I went fishing, and on the way back we dropped by the basement in the place to show off fish. The men were all down there playing pool, smoking and watching baseball on TV. Everything came to a halt so they could come inspect the fish. We stayed long enough to soak up some ambiance and get some advice about fishing. [/QUOTE]
