[font=trebuchet ms]As Jon put it, "that's the addiction talking". What smoking cigs really does, is dull your sense of taste so that you don't notice the difference between good food and crap, dull your sense of smell so that you don't know how bad your clothes, hair and skin stinks, and clogs up your lungs so that eventually they don't work anymore.

That last part takes quite a while to happen. When I was 25, after smoking for 10 years, I chased down a truck to talk to the driver about helping me move. He didn't know I was trying to catch him, so he matched my speed just to see how fast I was running. I finally caught him at a red light, 6 blocks later, at 25 mph. By the time I quit 20 years later, I couldn't run more than a few steps without collapsing. Don't go there.


Cigarettes STINK!!
And smokers suck 'em.
