Smoked Marlboro for almost 20 years, then switched to camel lights about 10 years ago.

the b/f smokes Marlboro Mediums and I am ready to switch to that... if I don't just quit outright.

I'm smoking Mediums right now but I usually smoke Milds (menthol.)

Don't smoke FTW!!!

I used to smoke cigarettes, quit about 17 years ago though. No way I'd pick up that habit again.

I smoked Marlboro for 10 years or so. I've been completely smoke free for almost 2 years now.

I was a GM for Friday's in Birmingham ALA about 10 years ago and one of the best servers I had smoked Camel Lights. He was such a great guy... but anyway... He challenged me to trade a pack of Marlboro for his Camel because they were more flavorful and I just started buying them.

But every once in a while, when I am out, I grab a medium from the b/f. They feel smoother and lighter to me. So, I am thinking that is the way to go.

EDIT: I LOVE a menthol every now and then. But buying a whole pack of em... they get stale before I get 1/2 thru.

Yeah, I know what you mean about Camel Lights. I used to smoke them. But then, I've smoked just about everything at one point or another. $$$ had a lot to do with it. :D

When I started smoking... I still lived at home, was in high school.

My Mom smoked Winston 100's and my Dad smoked Kool Kings. So, I smoked those quite often. Also, there was a time, when I lived in the UK that cigs were so expensive that I tried rolling my own... as many ppl there did... and that sucked worse than anything. It was suggested that I buy filters and proper papers and a rolling machine, but by the time I was done doing all that, it cost almost as much as just buying cigs. So, I tried all the British brands that were cheaper than Marlboro ... in the end, i just bought the friggen Marlboro.
