My Grandpaw was nienty six years old when he passed away back in the
1970's and he smoked a pack of non filter Camel cigarettes everyday.I always tell people if you don't smoke,don't start smoking,if you are a smoker,you should consider stop smoking.Smoking is a nasty habit and it definetly can and sometimes does lead to lung cancer.Hospital clinics can show you photos/X-Rays of the difference between healthy lungs of non smokers and the darkened cracked lungs of a smoker.I DO need to Quit smoking! cuhulin |
In 1972 I did quit smoking for nineteen years.I carried some toothpicks
around with me and instead of lighting up a cigarette,I chewed on a toothpick.It took about two months for all of the nicotine to get out of my body and I didn't have a craving for a cigarette anymore.I have a six ounce can and a half a six ounce can of TOP brand name cigarette tobacco here.When I finish smoking that tobacco,I am going to try to stop smoking again. cuhulin |
I encourage people to smoke. I always mention how it stimulates brain
activity, and can help in controling your appitite. What a wonderful hobby. God bless the cultivators of tobacco. Darren |
"I don't want to bore you with statistical data."
JS Well, in your exact words, "I've done the math". That is a pretty specific statement that says you have determined with mathematical precision that you have no appreciable risk from smoking. So, please provide the math that supports your conclusion. "I'm beyond the reaches of your intellectual appeal. Anti- smoking campaigns are blazing all around me. One thing I like, my organs aren't suitable for transplantation, because of cigarettes." JS Hmmm...there must be a reason that the organs of a smoker are not considered suitable for transplant into a living body. I wonder what that reason could be..... |
I think there are some tobacco growers here in Mississippi.I once saw a
website where I can buy some tobacco plants,I think I can grow some tobacco in my back yard.Heck,tobacco is grown in some States that have a colder climate than here where I live.Thing is though,some damn assholes would probally come over here and steal my tobacco unless I built a fence with an alarm system. cuhulin |
Let's crank things up a notch. You want to reason with me, useing
established data. Alright, I assume the position of a brick wall. It's comparible to the statistics on "the gay lifestyle". You could site all of the medical data on hepatitis, aids, overall shortened life-span, occuring as a result of a sodomite existance. They'll, by in large, be defiant of your cold facts. My smoking is under attack. Meanwhile, the same intellectuals want me to deny the stats on gayness, and dub it a virtue. Hypocricy. Obesity is another can of worms. Abhorant sexual devience is being touted, and my purogative to smoke is increasingly threatened. Darren |
All I'm asking for are the numbers when "you did the math".
"Abhorant sexual devience is being touted, and my purogative to smoke is increasingly threatened." JS I don't see any message in this thread where anyone touted anything involving sex. And I'm not threatening your decision to smoke, but I am presenting well established information about the correlation between smoking and numerous serious health problems. JS But lets stick with the first question...where are the numbers. |
Now y'all know somewhat by what I mean when I said,fed govt is driving a
wedge through the middle of America.I do respect your right to smoke though. cuhulin |
Apparently, you feel as though you've got me cornered on this issue of
math. Again, my math is of the casino variety. A gambler's odds. I'm simply trying to appeal to a more philosophical aspect of the issue. If the higher thinkers, the enlightened one's amidst us in our culture, invoke their will on me, I'll squirm out from under the boot. I maintain that I am free to smoke. If I blow my smoke in your face, I've crossed a line. You're free not to smoke. If you reach for my freedom, you've crossed a line. Darren |
Please feel free to smoke as many high priced cartons of cigarettes as
you wish. |
