I do not condone any of the negative behavior described. I have learned from the mistakes I have made and do not wish for anyone to recreate or attempt any of the events described.
I just did 2 and a half years in county jail for something I did not do, and man, that fist cigarette was the best thing in the world at the time. Now, I'm struggling, barely working, and can't afford them. I am so glad I found your channel. I'd smoke a cigar with you any day!
Good luck out there and God bless keep yer head up
Damn dude hope karma comes back around for you in later life. I cannot imagine being in that kind of environment for something you are innocent of. It's one thing if you did the crime but if not that's got to be living every single day feeling nothing but hatred.
Buy tobacco in a bag for 10-20$. Then get a small pipe or papers for a few Dollars. Much cheaper and it lasts longer.
stay strong out here john,your worst day out here is better than your best day inside the county jail again.
@@lucasm7177 Thanks, man. It has been the hardest thing I've had to do, getting back into society and all. I have severe PTSD from it all, and I still live like I'm locked up. No money, no food, no nothing. Except a phone I can barely afford to pay for. I lost everything I had. So I'm starting over, with nothing, with a part-time job that seems like it's going nowhere, making barely enough money to afford a weekly motel bill. After the motel gets their money, it leaves me with 18 dollars to last a week. Hard to eat or enjoy life with 18 dollars per week! And I'm doing hard labor, so by the time I'm off of work, I'm so worn out I can hardly keep my head up. I've reached out to my community, but unfortunately, there are no programs available for the kind of help I need. So essentially, I went from being a Certified PC Tech, to a lawn mowing guy. Long gone are my days of PC repair, seeing how you need a PC to fix a PC. Catch 22 for sure!
I remember my dad quiting smoking in his regular life and thinking he might snap at any moment. I couldn't imagine all the stresses of prison on top of that
Your right about that you couldn't
😁 YAY!!! Larry, thank you for always keeping us entertained, educated and inspired. Much love to you Larry and your whole team/family and much love to everyone reading this💖

Which is harder to kick, tobacco, nicotine, heroin, cocaine, weed, OxyContin, meth, crack, alcohol or chocolate ?? lol thanks I am trying to plan ahead….
I asked my cousin the same question he was a trustee he told me that he just simply walked into the store and bought a carton of cigarettes and brought them back to the unit I don't know much about the law but my cousin is the same man that broke out of jail just to buy a crack rock true story but that kind of Life eventually caught up with him and now he's no longer here with me
Sorry to hear he’s not around anymore

I used to smoke heavy. I can see killings for them. It's hell to quit. When my late husband and I figured out we were spending $23,000 a year on cigarettes, I couldn't believe it. He died (sudden death, not due to cigarettes), but just 4 weeks after he died, my mom was diagnosed with terminal lung and brain cancer. That's when I quit, as a shocked widowed mom, watching her mom die. I figure if I could quit through that hell and most stressful period of my life, I could handle not going back no matter what life throws me now.
how are you doing now?
How did you spend 23000 a year on cigarettes the average cost of a pack is a little over six dollars let’s round up to seven. that means you both were smoking at least four packs a day. That’s 80 cigarettes a day which means you would smoke a cigarette every 18 minutes the average amount of time to smoke a cigarette is six minutes so for this to be true you would be smoking around half the time of a 24 hour day not including sleep. That sounds absurd. Ok you can say you smoked wildly priced stuff but why not smoke cheaper cigarettes than decide to quit over to much money?
@@austinberry3299 She probably meant 2300, which is pretty standard. But honestly, smokes are between 8.50- 10.00 for name brand in USD, so I'm sure that number would go up.
Foreal haha if you smoked 23000 $ on smokes a year you'd already be dead
@@damiananguiano5295 No, two people who smoke 2-3 packs a day in many states, with current cost, easily does that.
Hi Larry, I really enjoy your videos. I have been clean from hard drugs for almost 3 years and your positivity and stories sure help me keep on the straight and narrow! Keep it up and Thank you, Thank YOU!
You keep it up, too
The sentence you said "smoking has been banned since 2006 or so but people are still smoking in prison". The word "ironic" pops in to my mind. Thanks for these cool videos, Larry. Much Respect to you. Cheers
All the fun stuff aside, such a great nugget of truth in there about stress. Stress is the silent killer, it's what makes the seemingly healthy guy drop at 50 and the cigar smoker live to 80. Not that one should use that as a license to drink and smoke and eat bad and not take care of yourself, but every little thing you can do to reduce stress will lengthen your life.
Always love and appreciate the informative videos you put out. Spreading the word as I can around me.
Much love thank you !!!
When I still smoked cigarettes when I went to prison, I kept thinking over and over that if I could smoke, it would've made my time much more bearable and actually helped me. They just throw you in there regardless of anything without resources and magically expect rehabilitation? Explain that 🤔
I was locked up for only 2 weeks. But I thought the exact same thing. If I could just smoke a cigarette 1-3 times a day it would have made it much easier on me.
You look so innocent. Would never guess you went to prison.
@@jonbourgoin182 never trust a women
great video larry! appreciate all the content you put out , you for the people !
Appreciate you being here !
Hey Larry nice to see your hustling videos out keep up the good work man always nice to get a notification when you upload
As always Larry, great video.
I quit smoking February 7, 2000. I did it through a combination of nicotine patches and changing behaviors.
Quitting smoking is easy. Adjusting behaviors that trigger wanting a cigarette is what is difficult.
I loved a good stogie back in the day.
Damn that’s really true. It’s the hardest part. It’s basically training oneself to correct the way they respond to certain stimuli.
Your right...it's behaviors...it's your routine... I tried to quit a few times...but I love coffee too...I love a cup of coffee with my cigarette...I need to quit both at the same time ...that's double trouble...
Good to see you again looking well Larry! I haven't watched you in while and now I see what I have been missing. Thanks for doing this about smoking in prison, I was really wondering about that. I had heard of the $2000 carton somewhere else too, Jesus, thats a lot of money. I believe you are right about the system never doing anything good for the convicts. It would do all of us some good to have some more compassion for our fellow humans. Including prisoners of course! Stay well and free, Larry. Keep up the good work!
Larry
Look at this Nation, then look at yourself. You Larry are what this country needs. You’re a real honest man!
Cant wait to hear this one, Larry you are an amazing story teller. I could listen to you forever!
I'm glad that I never started smoking. I saw what it did to my father and I didn't want to end up in the terrible shape he ended up in. He suffered a fatal heart attack at 59 years old. He could hardly breathe and had to use inhalers for the last 15 years of his life. Because I spent so much time in the living room with my parents when I was younger, I ended up suffering from respiratory problems myself from breathing in the second-hand smoke that visibly filled the living room.
So interesting ! Love you Larry watching you from Montreal
I remember my uncle showing me a tattoo he had on his chest and saying “i got that for about 4 cartons of Marlboro Reds”
And that is for sure the dammmmmm truth !
@@LarryLawtonJewelThief it’s actually pretty bad ass it’s the Harley Davidson logo
I’m a minor and went to a rehab that had adults in another building and we would scavenge the butts, harvest the tobacco from them, dry it out, and smoke it out of apples. i made a lighter with a chrome book cord and a pen that would give me a consistent flame. shit was fun ngl
Yup, name checks out.
Can't wait to speak to you on Monday Larry it's gunna be a great one
As somebody who worked nearly 3 years in a prison from 2019 to the end of 2021, they smoked cigarettes just like anybody smokes weed
Rolled tobacco in book pages, whatever else paper they can find
When they would find a big stash on the unit, there was usually just as much bags of tobacco as there was bags of weed
Light it using a pop socket
A piece of wire that they would stick in the electrical outlet to cause a spark and light their cigarette
We would steal used Skoal from the jail warehouse, dry out the tobacco, roll what's called a "chewgler" (Bugler reference), then use the batteries from the TV remote to rig a ligher. Or, we'd "pop the socket". We'd sell those supposed cigarettes for up to 30 bucks a piece, and ALL profited.
Hey Larry. I already commented on this video. (Hell I'm having a smoke right now) but I just wanted to comment on your most recent video. I just wanna say thank you. For everything that you're doing. I grew up in a juvenile court system and I wish your program had been around when I was in need of a reality check. Thank you for giving back. Thank you for caring about these kids and trying to help them out. Seriously Larry. Enough thanks cannot be sent. There are so many people making right choices because you decided to do what you do. The POSITIVE IMPACT you have been placing on people is astounding. THANK YOU LARRY!
Larry is the only guy who can take 20 minutes to get to the point of the video and I am on the edge of my seat in entertainment and patience 🤣🤣🤣❤❤❤
i had to share a box with a guy who got so desperate for a smoke he saved up a bunch of nicotine patches (dispensed daily by a nurse) and scraped the stuff out of it, mixed it with some tea and tried to smoke it. it made him really sick and smelled like burnt plastic spoons. banning smoking was really dumb
The nicotine patch thing was big on Rikers Island for a while after they finally took the cigarettes in like 2001. The last time I went thru there they stopped giving out patches, but I don't know what they do now. However, if it was done right it actually wasn't too bad. And when I 1st heard about patches & tea to smoke I thought it was ridiculous, but as a smoker at the time, I'd tried it. And if it's done right it's not bad, but it has to be done right, with the right tea, etc.
We would get a flavorless tea, completely strain it, then place the damp tea between patches & heat it up & let it cook for hours, mixing it up every so often, & eventually it would blend with the tea pretty evenly. It wasn't a cigarette, but didn't taste too far off, & it definitely had affect.
I'm just glad I quit smoking now.
Messing about with nicotine like that is really dangerous. Nicotine is very dangerous stuff and no one should be scraping that stuff out to use like that. Such a dumb decision to remove tobacco. Give designated areas for smoking. Cells only and outside but stopping it creayes a black market and causes friction. Oh, and it can also be harmful if people use patches the wrong way.
You know what's really dumb? Being addicted to nicotine lol
@@brianbadonde9251 ok karen
@@brianbadonde9251 smoke pure weed instead 😉
Love from Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Making my night again💪🏽✌🏽
I would love it if you talked about what it felt like getting mail in prison, I was in the navy and in boot camp getting mail was a HUGE dopamine hit, and maybe also just talk about the first time you get to call family on the phone. I got 2 calls in boot camp and they were SUCH a big mood uplifter
I can definitely a have that same feeling if I think about it back when I was at Navy boot camp and how happy it was to get a letter I loved it and then the phone calls - my mom's voice- what a gift
Thank you Larry for continuing to call out how broken the prison system is.
Could you explain sometime how you dealt with having thousands of books of stamps and then, say, getting sent to the hole or transferred to another prison or cell? Did friends sneak in and grab them for you or did other prisoners steal them? Did you ever get caught for having too many stamps? There had to be a rule about that.
CO take em in a bags and will have it back to inmate
@@blazeroranger how many would they be allowed to have though? If someone has thousands of them then its obvious they're running a racket of some sort surely?
nah they really don't give a shit in prison lol especially shit like that
Also thanks to Larry's Crew!!!!!!!!!!
Without the crew( including you) I wouldn’t be here now
I had an easier time quitting various hard drugs than I have had quitting any legal drug. Quitting smoking was hard, but the hardest to quit are the ones you're least likely to think of.
Absolutely elite plug; “small pages, not like my book: gangster redemption. Larry you’re the man
Love seeing the new studio man.
Coming along great!!
@@LarryLawtonJewelThief Hard work paying off!
Watching your vids helps me stay clean off crack and heroin. Thank you so much for this priceless service telling your stories has provided me
To quote Ricky..."they took smoking away from the boys"
Thanks for everything you do Larry! I hope you still enjoy doing this for us all!
nice new video from larry good topic very interesting makes the work day fly by 😃
Another great video, you should do a series like this for all the banned stuff. I'd be interested to know how they do the other stuff in prison
As someone from Canada, the US prison system seems so much worse then here, hope you Larry can make a difference in your country
Everytime I just watch and get lost in a trance and you explain very well. Glad to see you out
love your content larry!! cant stop watching man!
Hey everybody ragethelunatic here and boy do i love this channel. Ty for everything you do Larry! 💎
"Whenever someone says its for the good of people , red flags go off"
Yeah that's the rule of thumb for politics in general.
Man. You should think of doing a speaking tour to troubled people. You're such a inspiration.
I work in a casino now and they took smoking away during COVID. Most casinos haven't brought it back since, but ours did. It sucks as a non smoker. In Rhode Island, my state, they outlawed smoking in public establishments, but for some reason the casino has an exception.
Same thing here in Oregon. Pretty sure they are exempt because they are on Indian land and not land owned by the state. I'm a smoker so it doesn't bother me lol.
Good ol Lincoln Park. Place smells like an ashtray
Always great to have RUclips's greatest insight to the penal system giving us more wisdom.
Love the videos Larry, keep up with the great content!
Thank you ive always wondered
I can confirm how hard it is to quit smoking. I've been smoking since I was 13 and I'm now 32, turning 33 in a few months. So it's been 20 years and I've tried to quit 5 times or so, and I still can't quit the habit. I've heard that it's harder to quit heroin addiction.
My suggestion would be to switch over to nicotine gum or pouches, then slowly taper off. Once you get down to one or two pieces/pouches every 24 hours, ultimately quitting will be far easier.
It is ! Been clean from herion 18 years ! Been smoking 40 ! Tried to quit 100 's of times ! It sucks ! Good luck ! O 10$ a pack also ! Not good !
@@johnm2617 try here in Ireland bro..nearly 15 euros a pack
@@skerriesrockart How much in America? But probably alot ! I'll quit probably when I die ! Lol good luck !
@@johnm2617 $6-7 dollars per pack.
That was a good one. In county someone got a cigarette and lit up blew into the ventilation thinking it would go outside, it didn't. SWAT showed up shook down every cell. Redwood City California.
Let’s go Larry❗️
It’s fascinating seeing the differences between UK prisons and the types of US prisons!
When I was in I worked CMS, basically maintenance for those who are unfamiliar. Did mostly plumbing, that always seemed to be the biggest problem. My side was installing extra shelves in lockers. $20 a set (2). Usually I'd just give them a commissary list cause all I was looking for was food lol
Did you use that experience when you got out?
@@Malaphor I have used the plumbing for myself and family but I am a mechanic by trade now. Restoring old cars, don't know crap about the new ones lol. Too many electronics
Good lookin cigar Larry, I’m always smoking a different type of cigar but I can’t wait to try yours when they come out
When does the Cigar come out
Late august , early sept
@@LarryLawtonJewelThief Ty can’t wait! Maybe if you have a extra one sitting around U can send it to me? lol 😂
Thanks for the advice Mr. Costanza. Cheers Larry.
dude its crazy just how much stuff i learn from these videos, keep it up larry!👍
I did state time and smoked like a chimney in processing as my bunkie was Native American. Of course I got to my first camp the day after smoking was banned both for convicts and staff. Later when I lost a custody level a pack of cigarettes cost $160 but again I smoked free as I was on a road crew under the gun with two cool guards that didn't smoke but looked the other way. Amazing how much violence could be prevented and or ended with a nice pull off a Newport. Meanwhile the ladies could buy cigarettes from Canteen. Oh yeah, I went in September '09 for heroin related charges and came out clean for the first time in 20 years and it felt great. Still do and do what I can to help others get off that shit that most likely started with big pharma.
Congratulations on getting clean, I'm 6 years off heroin. It's disgusting how big pharma pushed opioid pills onto people despite knowing how addictive they are.. here in the UK it isn't such a big problem as our health system isn't private so there isn't the same financial incentives for doctors to prescribe opioids and big pharma doesn't make as much profit here, but I know the situation is really bad in the US and it makes my blood boil!
No one deserves to have their life ruined by pain pills.
Hope you're doing well now!
@LarryLawton Hey Larry great video quick question would you ever consider interviewing John/Jon Lamata/LaManna on this channel?
They've even banned smoking in most rehabs. I went through 5 years ago and one thing all the counselors and whoever tell you is dont try to quit everything all at once, but then at the same time they take away smokes. I had to try real hard to find a place that allowed it, and even then they kept them and doled them out one at a time at certain "smoking times." I was like wtf? This is a place I am paying $1500 a week and I can leave anytime I want, I'm just trying to kick my dope habit, let me have my smokes. They were currency in there too, you would always sneak a couple extra out of the pack and just chief down as many as possible in your 10 minute smoke break.
Damn, place I went to back in 2014 let us have as many as we could afford. I brought a carton when I got there, and we could and did smoke any time.
I saw guys go back to jail because they were mandated to complete rehab and then got caught smoking and got kicked out. Crazy.
its a good thing they are banning cigs because that is an addiction as well, its just as harmful as any other addiction, plus it even harms others, other people, your pets; plus i have seen it myself, folks who smoke tend to be more likely to add to their addictions and dependencies, and as far as alcohol addiction, cigs and drinks tend to go hand in hand, no pun intended.
@@Shannonbarnesdr1 yeah well when you are trying to kick heroin or whatever else, it's not the greatest time try and stop smoking as well. Kinda a one step at a time thing. Yeah when you drink you want a smoke, but smoking doesn't make you want a drink, that's not how it works.
@@arnold8746 i agree you should do it step by step, definitely. i am just going on my own life experiences and also with other folks i had in my life, a lot of addicts started with cigs, some started with booze or other drugs, but most i knew started with cigs and it went from there , i have known a couple of folks who were non smokers, but drank, and they did pick up smoking later, as they frequented the smoking bars, so at least with Dan, it was, hey gimme one of those i wanna try it ''' oh i know it doesnt make you want a drink necessarily, this is just some things i noticed with the folks who were in my life at that time, but i tend to avoid addicts period as i dont want to get wrapped up in any of that mess anymore, now me, i drank on occasion, but favored the drugs, never could stand cigs though, but i got out of that life and no, its not easy, its not easy to cut out the toxic people that come with it either, but once i did, i literally had a new lease on life,i know thats a cliche' but its true, good luck to you man, i hope you can stay clean and life the life you set out for ;-)
Can’t wait to try one of your cigars. I’ve never smoked cigarettes, but since I started with cigars a couple years ago my anxiety has lowered to the point I don’t need anxiety meds anymore.
i was in county jail(it was an "alternative" minimum security camp jail) for 90 days and smoked weed twice... i didn't even care about getting high, i just liked that the other inmates trusted me enough to get weed for me, through trades,ect...also traded for meth, but then decided not to try it and traded that for weed
Glad you didn’t smoke meth bud
@@jjcoola998 thanks,me too... it's crazy i was never exposed to meth or heroin until I went to jail...
I told my son about your cigars coming out in August. He's excited to try them out!! He loves a good cigar!!
If I ever get sentenced to prison, I'll be binge watching Lawton so my survival chances get a 'force multiplier'
Hey Larry, I’m a big fan of yours. I just wanted to pop in to the comments and say hello. I caught a lot of your videos and this one was really funny and interesting to me because
We used bible paper to roll cigarettes in Australia 🇦🇺
In rehab; we blew the smoke into the ceiling vents. Love your vids. Larry.
Mild Devil's advocate here. Some people like myself are very sensitive to tobacco smoke. It doesn't bother my sinuses much to be around someone smoking but the prolonged exposure to that smell that gets caked onto everything in an enclosed space totally gets to me. Even a person coming from one of those places can trigger a migraine in me. So I'd be fine with tobacco in prison as long as they allowed plenty of yard time and only allowed tobacco outside. I love my dad but he's a smoker and staying in his house is miserable for me just because of the tobacco dust in his place. It's so bad that when he sends me a letter in the mail I can smell his letter when I open my PO BOX.
Damn good point.
About that cigar thing you where talking about, some black guy who was in the army or navy (cant remember) smoked cigars and funny enough, he was still alive at the age of 109. Don't know if he's dead now but the name of the video was "109-Year-Old Veteran and His Secrets to Life Will Make You Smile | Short Film Showcase"
No bible shout out for rolling ? Some of them are basically made of rolling paper !
yeppp them small little Bible jaunts everyone used them like crazy🤣
I love how you have turned intro your own merch/media industry!
Just say it... bibles had the best rolling paper material!!
I live in Canada, and I did end up in Regina Correctional. In Regina when you are sent to the hole, the toilet is concrete, and molded into the floor. Everyday, everyday the toilets would back up all over the floor, and I came to the conclusion that this was a planned thing. In Regina's " hole", you might be in a room with another person. My other person did pushups on his bed all day, and all night. He only said two things to me. " do we have any rights here? ", and " do you want coffee? " those were the only things he said to me that whole week. This is my first time watching one of your videos, thank you Dude. With love, and genuine respect. Wes Sept
I work in a prison in Germany (as a counsellor) and smoking is allowed over here. when you walk across the yard you will see all the inmates standing at the windows of their cells to smoke, almost everyone does it. Cigarettes can be bought on commisary (lots of different brands) but can also be sent in christmas packages or be bought by family members at a visit, theres a vending machine selling them in the visiting room. and as a staff member youll get asked 50 times a day if you can buy some from said machine by inmates who dont get visits lol
When it comes to prisons, Europe has always been ahead of the curve. There is a level of basic human compassion towards the incarcerated. Much respect to the German CO's.
@@prd2bxnavy1366 from what I’ve seen from American prisons I do think european/German ones are a bit more relaxed and have a higher standard in multiple aspects but there is still a lot wrong with prisons over here as well. Most guards are unfriendly and think they’re better than anyone, there are more crimes committed by guards than inmates inside our prisons, a lot of them love to play games with inmates, there is a lot wrong with the job and money systems inside the prisons etc etc. but yeah, still better than what I see from other countries
Interesting comment to read! I'm not exactly sure what your job as a counsellor is but I wish you the best of luck and that you can make the place a bit better. Alles Gute dir!
French prisons are no joke.
@@prd2bxnavy1366 in modern times, yes. Historically not. Depends on the country as well. Some western and Central European countries, yes. Eastern Europe and the UK is probably the same as the US I reckon.
Hey Larry, I believe you when you say that stamps are a big currency in the prison system but I have a relative who works as a guard and when I asked him about stamps he didn't know what I was talking about lol. He told me the main currency in his prison was Ramen noodles. I'd love to see you make a video talking about all the different types of currency they use/used in prison and the things you would buy sell and trade. I know in your videos you mention things in passing all the time but I bet it would make a good focus for a video if you haven't already.
Personally, as a smoker since teen years, I've rolled my tobacco with pages from the bible (best, thinnest paper you can find for), old yellow telephone books (2nd best), dryed tree leaves and basically anything that was at hand at the dire times!
Dried tree leaves now thats something to be proud (or ashamed depends on how you see it) of how did you even manage that?
I agree the bible is a great rolling supply, the only better one perhaps exept actaul rolling paper is that brown paper you get when you order something in a cardboard box or stuffed in new shoes. Not all of them but some are real thin eveb more then bible pages and less rigid
@@alexisjuillard4816 You basically take a regular, fallen tree leaf, roll it up. Leave it to dry for 2 days and you have something very similar to a blunt or a cigar wrap. Key is to roll it up before it's too dry or it crumbles. I made about 2 cartons worth of tree-leaf cigarettes every week, I'd just go and stash my pockets with tree leaves during rec time and roll 'em up and leave 'em to dry.
@@alexisjuillard4816 The Bible is great!
Hello Larry, I’ve been watching your videos for a long time now and I keep recommending that you should watch and review the series of episodes of Criminal Minds where Spencer is falsely imprisoned in Mexico because I would love to see your take on it. Keep up the good work and thanks for being so inspiring.
I got locked up a long, long time ago, we had Top tobacco in our commissary. Might as well have been smoking the stuff you scrape out from under the mower 🤮

Hey Larry, the year you first went to prison is the year i was born!! Love it!
What's funny is that they won't let a person on death row smoke because it's bad for his health or will shorten his life.
God Bless Larry another great video. Just finished reading you book was a great read highly recommend.
Thank you for the video! ☺♥
Hey Larry! I love your videos! If I might make a suggestion, please do some sound conditioning in this room. The reverb in that room is incredibly distracting.
Its crazy that you make a good video every day
3x a week plus the podcasts , but who’s counting 😂
Great video Larry! Always appreciate a valuable and well thought video from you. Would you ever be interested in doing a video analyzing the rapper Tay-k's case? Have an awesome day Larry. Much love !
I appreciate that

Love me some Bugler. Great video Larry!
sitting here listenig to this guy try to pitch me that smoking will make me live longer and I cant help but think, "I fucking love this guy." you do you, larry lol
Larry u should check out joey confessions. Its an old mafia hitman from the 80s talking about the life
Larry, Did you hear about the Hunger strike at SCI Greene in Pennsylvania? Its a movement organized by inmates to protest the deplorable conditions of the hole. It started a couple weeks ago and there are still 3 inmates who have not eaten since it started. Greene is one of the ones i was in when i was locked up. Its not a good place. I figured with how often youre making videos on these things and how passionate you are about them that you might want to know about it if you havent already heard of it.
isnt Cool C there,rapper from philly that killed cop during bank robbery.
New studio is looking good. Todays podcast was a nice Thursday surprise
awhile back I heard there was a warden who started a company to sell E-cigarettes, menthol and regular , like a soft plastic prison friendly device that doesn't shank or start fires too good. I wonder if guys are able to get those or what's going on with that. that warden probably would be able to retire from the prison making bank from selling smokes to the guys, that's a good racket
I've heard about similar studies that looked at pipe smokers who generally live longer than non pipe smokers. I'm smoking a pipe as I watch this video, and I'll smoke 2 or 3 cigars on the weekends. Not inhaling definitely helps, but I think it's because the time we spend smoking gives us a chance to completely relax and reflect. Anyway, keep up the good work and videos, and I really need to try the crooked diamond cigars soon.
Camera cuts and Larry appears in a cloud of smoke lol
