Quite the outlier he was! My grandfather too although he was never at 3 packs a day but smoked and drank till he died at 95.

I believe George only smoked cigars, though I could be wrong. For the most part, cigar smokers who aren't cigarette smokers do not inhale the cigar smoke. BIG difference on your lung health. Still can suffer from mouth cancer, if you smoke enough. And before somebody calls me on the obvious, yes you can get lung cancer, and mouth cancer, etc without ever smoking.

Knew some cigar smokers who inhaled deeply, that would have knocked the top of my skull off during vomiting if I tried that trick

Almost all of them had been cigarette smokers. I've been a cigar smoker for over 40 years, but I dont inhale. Still I get seriously dizzy after smoking one on some occasions. If you ever watched the Burns and Allen show, or seen George in other shows, it doesn't seem as though he is inhaling. But I don't know for sure.

Used to imbibe to the point where I built up some tolerance for strong cigars, long time ago... one grandfather would bring out the best cigars and scotch for family dinners, I was too young, then he had a heart attack and abstained for his last 29 years just as I could have started to enjoy. I sorta miss just sitting there half-contemplating life for 2 hours as a good cigar burns away

I sorta miss just sitting there half-contemplating life for 2 hours as a good cigar burns away My cigar taste/tolerance seems to change all the time. I really like a very strong Nicaraguan cigar (like a Padron 1926). But then out of the blue, it just destroys me. I can't explain it. My taste for cigars comes and goes. I was smoking 4 or so a week. Then I barely could tolerate 1. I'm back in a decent groove, but probably only have 1 or 2 per week. This cycle goes on and on for years. Too bad because I'm very good friends with the local tobacconist. I help him out a lot (watch his shop for an hour or two here and there, pay his bills on the computer, so he doesn't have to write checks, etc), so he doesn't charge me (or gives me rock bottom prices) for what I smoke.
