I dont smoke and never have and I am just stating the obvious. It wasnt a fact or meant to be funny...

you know what it does to your body - so just quit or keep smoking...

emphesima, lung cancer and throat cancer, etc.

babe ruth did it and he ended up dying young - so the end of all ends is to either quit or keep smoking - cutting down doesnt help because your still putting that shit into your body...

why not just cold turkey it and quit - its that easy!!!

morton downey jr


and I quote from http://mortondowneyjr.com/mortondowney.html "Mort lost a lung to cancer in 1996 and unfortunately left us on March 24th, 2001 after a serious bout with the same illness. He was 67."

nice way to go out!!!

so the choice is yours in the end but remmember what you do also effects your family, friends and the people you smoke around too

Hey the Fucking Duke lost a lung to cancer and kept on going


Little closer to home and a true story
My uncle passed away last year from cancer (it was smoking related) hit his brain and spread through is body
I went to his death bed, he told me he wasn't scared to die, he lived a very good life and left my Aunt well off. I sat at his death bed and we talked and I toasted him with Jim Beam (he was the man who taught me to appreciate Jim Beam)
He was an amazing man, larger than life it's self and he wouldn't have wanted it any other way

He didn't linger, the Doctor gave him 6 months, he passed away after 2

He left me his gold watch from his railroad days (he ended his career as a senior vice president after spending his entire career - 30 some years with the railroad)
It's one of my most treasured possessions. I'm one of the very few people in this world with a gold CSX watch

Yeah I miss him, the great stories we shared (he saw Frank Sinatra preform live when he was only 8) but most of all he always has my admiration, love and respect


So for those of you quitting, good luck and I wish you success

For those of us who at this time choose to keep smoking, well that's our choice

Vick
sharing a glass of jim together and saying a proper good bye sounds like it has left you with a very positive feeling about his passing ... that is precious

while we all know the risks of what we do, not smoking is not a guarantee to a healthy, happy life! i'm sure we've each known people who have died too young, for no apparent reason, who were extremely healthy.

I just hope if I get a smoking related illness, I don't linger around and end up talking out of a tube or breathing with a machine!!

fucking filthy habit

Just after I left school...

The brother of a school friend of mine was working construction in the city, when his older brother paid him a visit at work. Peter stopped for a chat to his brother and to have a smoke. The brother told him he should quit, it was bad for him, blah blah.

Peter responded with 'I'm here for a good time, not for a long time.'

The next day, he fell from a girder, and died.

Nick, can we ban him.. Can We Can We Can We??

Invasion,

Sure just wake up and quit cold turkey.. that's alll there is to it ... It isn't tough. If you are poinmting out facts everyone knows why not point out quitting smoking has been proven to be more difficult than kicking heroin, THE MOST ADDICTIVE ILLEGAL street drug - period.

And you have never smoked how would you know how easy it is? :angry:

Don't mind opinions of others, but they should have some first hand experience - You don't... And you seem like a troll to me. Nothing better to do with your time? Go pass out "Quit Smoking" fliers - yu can tag along with the Jehovah's Witnesses when they go knocking door to door!

Still doing it and its not too tough really.

Lots of things I've read say you should quit cold turkey , but a friend who is a doctor and noticed my lack of cig in my hand said they are full of shit...

What works is whatever you do to stop smoking and reducing down and sustaining is a great way to start to become smoke free.

A person who can go 72 hours without a cig or thinking of a cig should stop now , you are not physically addicted , don't get addicted.

Quitting cold turkey works for many. However few that have smoke above 60 a day can do it , the craving is too strong. If you manage to reduce to 10 cigs a day , do it. It is easier to go from 10 cigs a day cold turkey than 80.

so far I've given up..
booze...totally not a drop.
Cocaine....not a dusting lol
loose women..lol
and am sure I will beat cigs ..

Thank fuck for poker!!!

OK after one throat cancer scare , lung cancer scare , and smoking 80 cigs a day for 30 yrs , I'm quitting.

I have all the stuff, nicorette inhaler , the gum , zyban all of it.

The first day was yesterday.

I am very pleased instead of 80 cigs I had 5.

Hell if I could maintain that I'd be delighted.

Anyone else quit? Really cut back?

Its a living hell! I mean I quit coke , booze , and seriously , compared to this quitting them was a peice of piss.

I never really even think of drinking (maybe once in a blue moon I think "A nice glass of wine would be pleasent) , but cigarettes? I want one now , I will still want one in a minute...

Seriously fuck comibng off coke , its a cake walk compared to quitting smoking.
i quit the day jackie told me she was pregnent.

now if only i could get off the crack.....

That was 27 months ago now. I made a decision, and never went back. I had smoked a pack/2 packs a day for 15 years. Once i made the decision i didn't have another cig, and haven't since.

100% of all smokers die.











So do 100% of all non-smokers

Well, you can drink 8 glasses of water a day like they suggest, but everyone that's ever drank the water died too.

I'm just trying to cut back by half and it's making me into a bitch.

Totally destroying my sweet, guileless, helpful personality.

So you're saying it's because of you only drinking 4 glasses of water a day that you feel like it's : "Totally destroying my sweet, guileless, helpful personality."
