Here is a tip if you are going to smoke. Don't buy the store bought
cigs that are already rolled.

I really believe that it isn't the tobacco itself (most of the time)
that kills folks, it's the poisons they spray on the tobacco and the
stuff to make it burn faster so you will smoke more....now they have
added another chemical so if you don't puff within a minute your cig
goes out - all along leaving in the 'other' chemical to make it burn
faster. Makes sense huh?

Roll your own - most of the tobacco you buy in the tub or small packs
don't have near the same amount of crap as do the name cig companies.
Buy you a roller or a machine and buy your own filters/papers, you'll
be able too tell the difference....if you can get through the first
week too two of headaches from the detoxing of the crap that
spray...you'll be home free and safe lots of cash in the process.

If you have the will power (a scarce quality in low class folk)
and can get through the cold turkey detox phase
you'll have even more money to apply to some SWL gear.

Yeah, I smoked for eight/nine years. I was never really a heavy
smoker, the last couple of years that I smoked - I smoked anywhere
from four to nine a day....never wanted to get into double digits -
pretty weird huh? I just quit all together. Even when I did smoke
though, after the first couple of years, I switched to buying my own
tobacco/filters and papers....there was no way I was going to spend
that much money on a lousy pack of smokes.

I quit when I realized I was smoking a Stratocaster every 3 months.

No, it really doesn't make sense.

Smoking, with or without the "added poisons" that may (or may not) be
there, is absolutely horrible for the human body. Nicotine itself is a
deadly poison. The many byproducts of combustion are equally deadly to
the human body.

Roll your own - most of the tobacco you buy in the tub or small packs
don't have near the same amount of crap as do the name cig companies.

And you know this how? Might it be possible that the small roll-your-own
companies buy their tobacco from the big producers?

Have you considered that the roll-your-own companies may want *their*
product to also burn faster so they can sell you more, just like the big
boys do?

Bottom line: the roll-your-owns will kill you just as dead as the
name-brands.

I quit smoking in 1972, for nineteen years.Then I lit up a Pall Mall cig
and I was back at square one.I hand roll my cigs.TOP, ZigZag, Bugler cig
tobacco.I think there are some Indians in Mississippi who sell cig
tobacco.I might see about that.

No kidding - at the rate my Dad chugged through cigarettes, we could
have had a couple of new rigs a year, with plenty left for a nice
vacation.

Congratulations on quitting. You are among the relatively lucky few.
I wish my Mom and Dad could have quit before it contributed to their
cancers.

Yeah, thanks Bruce but it wasn't really that big a deal for me. I
didn't really smoke out of habit, though that may sound like bullcrap,
but it really wasn't for me. I'd take a puff for the energy boost and
believe it or not...but to calm down at times - kind of sounds nuts in
a way. You know when you go to a new doctor or he asks you questions
to update your file? When I would say I usually smoke four cigs a day
or go three or four days without smoking I'd get the look like I was
lying or something shrug When I quit I didn't even have any
withdrawal that I know. But I DID have withdrawal (terrible headaches)
for maybe a week when I switched going from the treated tobacco to the
roll your own kind that isn't treated near like the others are. Man, I
think I'm jonesing for a cigarette now. ;-)

LOL yeah Cuh - I would miss trying to figure out what you're saying or
the soap opera of the gal across the big pond and doggie would be
pretty sad if you were to kick the bucket over cigs. :-(
