Now you know why, while driving around the U.P., you see exterior doors built into the 2nd floor of houses up there, with no stairs leading up to them!

Nobody seems quite sure:
"Another hypothesis is that it derives from "heh heh", which is Malagasy for, "I don't know". If correct, then the name might have originated from Malagasy people saying "heh heh" to Europeans to avoid saying the name of a feared, magical animal."

They are very delicate and friendly creatures, desperate for love.
Yet the locals kill them as they are superstitious savages who think the poor creature is evil.
A shame, they are going extinct and only because ignorant arses cannot just let them be.

When first discovered by Captain Noordermere's expedition in 1647, on landing on the island, one of the cute creatures was staring through the fronds at the landing party.
"What the devil is that?" enquired the captain of his hard working but hard-of-hearing bosun.
"Aye aye, Captain" came the response.

That is not the bacon you are looking for; move along.

That makes it a calendar month.
Have to say, it was helped by a sh*tty cold that lasted almost 2 weeks, but its actually been easy; I just stopped because of the cold and didn't bother restarting. It wasn't intentional.
My eyesight has improved. Weird. My lungs are clearer and I have more energy. Mind you not poisoning yourself with carbon monoxide is gong to help.\ So all in all interesting, and here is a tip:
Smoke until your mid 40s, That way when you stop you will feel young again and be as healthy as you were in your 20s and so not feel the effects of ageing!
