"Winners never quit, and quitters never win." - GI Joe.

Seriously, though, moderation in all things. Have a smoke or two, just not the whole pack. That's easy to do here, though. It's colder than suckable parts of a witch here, and I have to go outside to smoke. Stupid non-smokers.

No... smart non-smokers.

What is that strange picture? A lung? A smoker with its nads frozen off? A nad with its smoker frozen off? A hideously burnt GI Joe doll?

Here's some motivation to quit.....

My mother had been smoking since she was 15.
Now she is 50, she has lung and heart problems. She needs blood thinner to prevent bloodclots in her veins. She has a deteriorating hip and knee and needs a walker to get around.
This year, I had to push her around in a wheelchair to help her do some christmas shopping.

Some of her ailments could've been prevented if she stopped smoking.
Does she stop? Hell no! Actually she smokes more now than she did when she was in her 20's.

Am I saying this will happen to everyone who smokes 'til an old age? By all means, no. Many people can smoke and have absolutely no health problems right away. But sooner or later, it will catch up with them.

I started (part-time) when I was about 12. I quit this summer. 30 years.
I am so very very happy I did.
Downside. I have to suck in my belly to see my d*&#. I can lose the belly, I can't grow a new lung.

but the Allen Carr 'Easyway to Give Up Smoking Book'. I promise unless you are a moron this book will help you give up. You wont believe how easy and painless and enjoyable it can be. You can order it from What the Book.

'Bout as funny as your cartoons, you is. I got a bottle of champagne specially reserved for the day you make a witty comment.
