About 14 years ago we were sitting around a lobby talking, and I mentioned to Gordon that I was surprised he smoked, his reply was "I gave up drinking so I have to have at least one vice". Two years after the stomach problem we were talking and he lit up a cigarette, and I said I was surprised he was smoking after the health problem, he didn't really have any reply that time, he just nodded. Well if he finally quit, I am glad for him, I don't care how late it is. I have seen too many people die due to the effects of smoking. Talked with Rick recently, and he is doing good on his health, and his ankle is healing nicely, just his legs need some workout due to keeping off the broken ankle, he should be 100% fine by summer.
