this explains why my marlboro lights tastes so good.

I hate to tell ya, Cerberus or any other smokers out there that u guys probably already know u hav tough days ahead, so I would just quit now. You've got to go cold turkey, and it's basically impossible to do on days u work. So, if u ever hav 3 days off in a row, I would make a concerted effort to make it smoke-free thru them, and u might b smoke free forever, then the only hard part is resisting when others light up, which can b very tough, but the world is changing, and smokers must adapt to the fact that smoking and inhaling second hand smoke is very dangerous, and hopefully will b made illegal.

You guys assume we want to quit.
There is only one thing in life that is truly fatal. They call it being born, it always ends in death, it is completely incurable. All else is pure bunk driven by political/social control and power grabbing.
Smokes are so dangerous that instead of banning tobaco, they just tax the heck out of.
Fatening food is so bad for you, rather than ban it they want to tax the heck out of it.
Now they are banning trans fat, and a week after the ban in new york a study comes out that says people with too low a count of bad cholesterol has been found to increase the probability of contracting alzheimers.
All the scientists think the have tghe answer, create huge panics worldwide, get everyone to stop doing whatever is deamed unhealthy, and within a year are usually disproven.
I will not participate in the panic, I will enjoy my life as long or short as it is.
Life is not life if it is not enjoyed, it is mearly survival. -
Preach to someone else, until you can tell me of one person that has actually died of second hand smoke, you are just spouting the anti-smoking Nazi propaganda. All I want is the name, the age and a copy of the coroners report stateing second hand smoke as the cause of death. Till then live your life, and stay out of mine.

IF you want to quit and really want to quit, I hear the pill "Chantix" is really great at helping you do just that. I tried it and got sick on them, but I will attempt it again (I hear to many good stories about it). I hear that you will just not want them anymore, although you will want the habbit part, like reading and smoking (You have to break that). But talk to your doctor I hear (about 10 people giving daily updates) it is pretty good stuff. You get very vivid dreams (not nightmares) and many people are loving that part, they are very intesified.
Ok that is just data I have heard anyhow! I have yet to do it! I need to drink water and learn to eat before I take the pill. Let me say if I post that I quit on chantix then you all better BELIEVE IT WORKS! Cause I tried today picturing me without a cigarrette and I just can't do it -
interesting very interesting ! :smt023
glad i quit long ago. used the patch and wellbutrin worked great. -
Hey, I'm not going to bash u for not paying attention to the news, I don't care much for it either, but it was all over the news last summer, a study by the surgeon general determined that second hand smoke is practically as bad for u as smoking and practically as likely to kill u, and not only that basscase, but smoking is not only physically sick, it is also a mental sickness. I was sick too, and then I got better. Anything that u feel u can't live without, u r usually better w/out. Alcohol, Drugs, Codependent Relationships, Caffeine, Nicotine, it's all the same. I throw caffeine in although it's not nearly as harmful as nicotine. Why is it that so many people in this country want to b as sloppy, lazy, and ungrateful as possible and still b alive. The country is in a transitional state where people really need to start waking up, and pulling their heads on out, China already has a higher GDP than the U.S. If we're not careful, they could soon enough hav a higher per capita income, with nukes to boot.

Try to stay on one subject will you. If you want to discuss China, start a new thread.
You claimed that the SG, a political appointee, claimed second hand smoke is deadly, as deadly as actually smoking. Did you ever read the WHO report on second hand smoke? Please do, get of your soapbox, and go preach to your anti-smoking fanatic followers.
You still haven't named one person who died of second hand smoke, not one coroners report stating second hand smoke as a cause of death. Till you do, you are just
"blowing smoke".
Acouple of things "you" need to realize. Smoking and tobacco product are a political tool. If it was true that smoking or second hand smoke was a killer, why is it not illegal? Look what happens when a couple of people die taking a prescription drug, it is banned for sale very quickly, and the company is sued for billions.
Why is it then that the only answer to the drug tobacco is higher taxation? How many people has smoking killed? Ok, now how many can you "PROVE" died from smoking? You can only point to things you think are related to smoking, but you have no way of knowing if those things wouldn't have happened if the person never smoked, can you?
Didn't think so, quit blowing your smoke. Mine tastes better anyway. And as long as it's legal, I will continue to enjoy. -
Let's pretend for a second that u do smoke, that's not what I'm saying, what I'm saying is that that's what ur saying, so befor things get all discombobulated, let's try to figure out the who, when, and where. I didn't say I never smoked. For me to say that u never smoked would b like saying that I myself hav never smoked, when in reality I did smoke about 3-4 yrs. back and then quit. Say u start smoking 1 day, well how can u start when u already smoke? It doesn't make any sense, c what I'm saying!
