Dont smoke, never will. Stupid stuff. Drank my first alcaholic drink at about 7 but actually started drinking at about 13.

Around the same here as Johnny said, although smoking a year later, IIRC- however I gave that up quickly.

Inever smoked, and I very rarely drink. I don't really remember when I first tasted alchool. Probably when I was around 15.

I am proud to say that i do not smoke or drink. And probably never will

First started drinking in middle school, gave it up during high school, and fell back off the wagon in college. I rarely drink now, but still enjoy one when I go out.

Smoked cigars on three separate occassions (the first time at a retreat, and then twice at bachelor parties), and stopped after that.

I've never smoked and never done any drugs. I had my first 'serious' drink at 15 but I wouldn't say I 'started' drinking then as in from then on I regularly drank. I don't regularly drink now, just occasionally if the mood is right. I think alcohol has just never really been a culture if you know what I mean in my family. I've never actually seen my parents drunk although they do drink wine every night at dinner. But alcohol's never been synonymous for me with partying/having fun/going out, and I'm not the type to just crack a beer just because I'm thirsty or something.

I don't smoke, I start to drink when I first work ( 3 years ago ). I had to or people will call me strange if I don't drink.

Never smoked and almost never drink. Haven't been drunk once and I think I won't unless I feel like it [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Smoked intermittently around 15 or 16, then a bit in college. Stopped after that, and other than occasionally bumming a cig in a bar or something, I haven't smoked since. My dad's last vice is smoking, and I've got the kids working on him to quit [img]smile.gif[/img]

Drinking... started around 16 or 17, picked up steam in college, and then petered out. I still drink, but rarely. I have been drunk, but never enough to get a hangover.

Part of the reason I stopped drinking so much was that I never reached my limit of drinking. And it wasn't for lack of trying to find out where it was, either.

It's just that after drinking to the point where rum tastes like water and you've already out-drunk everyone else, what is there to shoot for?
