My HS band director used to give up cigarettes every year for Lent. Especially after he had a lung collapse on him one summer, I asked him, “Why don’t you just give them up all together? You’ve already shown you can do it for seven weeks at a time.” He said, “You don’t have to live with me when I’m not smoking!!” This, of course, was back when teachers could smoke in school buildings.
