Straw or tube?

Today, I went on my first jog since being put on asthma medication.  Mind you, my jogs consist of 75% walking, and my jogging speed is probably slower than your fast walking speed.  However, with the asthma medication in me, all I can say is wow!  Before, when I exercised, I would huff and puff, I ended up wheezing and coughing, and it felt like I was breathing through a straw:

This time, I was still huffing and puffing (that comes from being out of shape) but my airways were much more open.  More like breathing through a paper towel tube:
I don't like being dependent on medicine, however.........YOU try breathing through a straw and a paper towel tube and see which you prefer.
