Is Skoal that designer snuss that leaves whitish circles in fellows' hip
pockets? A pinch between cheek and gums? My dentist is a great dentist,
but we have our disagreements. He poo-poohed the idea that quitting
smoking is hard, because when he quit smoking, he started chewing. His
kids put a temporary end to that, mixing borax in with his chaw, but next
time he went duck hunting he took along a fresh chaw. He says it tastes
like dates. Sob. I love dates, but I have kicked the nicotine habit years
ago, and I'm not about to start chewing. I'll just eat dates.
