Let's Talk.....
 
Electronic cigarettes. I saw one at Wally World today and thought I would try it. I'm trying to cut back on smoking cigars. Has anyone here had any experience with these? The one bought today is alright, I just would like something with vanilla flavored. :D

Well the guy doin the commercials for Blu wuth the black leather jacket and the 2 days ago shave is seriously tryin to give cool new meaning--givin it his best.
But it aint workin.

Ive seen that commercial. Hes the guy from the Blade movie with Wesley Snipes. He was annoying then as well.


As far as the E cig. "Vaping" as its called seems to have a lot of followers.

I smoke a pack a day and it's taking it's toll on my lungs, that's why I would like to switch to those ecigars. :D

I started smoking at age 42 and now wish that I never started. :)

Love them, perfect gateway to real cigarettes. They remind me of a flight to Iraq. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6..._7644803_n.jpg

19 years old, too drunk to stand, "guarding" a plane with 500+ rifles, with 4 other goofs, and one squad leader who talked the refueling crew into letting us mess around in the cockpit.

Kinda miss those times.

DUDE!!!
You know what that's doing to your heart & arteries?
I did not until I had a heart attack.
Quit that $hit!

That is easy for you guys to say - alcohol and nicotine are real hard to quit.

Luckily for me I never got started.

Dubyagee 01-13-2013 07:35 PM

I quit cold after 23 years. It can be done.

Jim B. 01-13-2013 07:45 PM

I have a question.
 
Who put a gun to their head and made them start?

Kentucky Bob - stop. Now. No ****in.... excuses, no stories, no whatever. Both my parents, Darling Wife's Ma and her sorta step dad Ed..... this sh## sucks.

Find a bunker, a room, a hawt chickee who will hold you.... whatever it takes.

Stop.

Be done.

Now.

As dumb as it sounds, I was at a get together recently and was talking to a woman I know. She has COPD and was still smoking regular cigs. Switched to the eCigs and she says they don't make her cough at all.
I quit 20 years ago when the pregnant wife said no more smoking in front of me or our baby when it gets here; quit or move, but didn't stop chewing and the occasional good cigar once in a while, maybe twice a month. By good I mean a Cuban Cohiba. I get them by the box in Mexico. Spousal unit is now pestering me to quit my dip. My dentist tells me he can't even tell I use spit tobacco so it's hard to have any motivation. Chew is sort of ubiquitous around here. Almost everybody has a can of Copehagen in their pocket. If it's bothering you you ought to just cold turkey it and be done. (EZ for me to say.I'm as big a nic addict as I ever was, I just don't smoke.) By the way, do NOT take up chew, it's much harder to quit than smokes.
The problem with switching from one nicotine delivery system to another as I see it is, what do you do when your method of choice runs out and you can't get to the store? Since you've still got the nicotine monkey on your back you'll go back to whatever it was you were doing that you switched from. Rewind. Start over. No good.

The Clk Man 01-13-2013 08:26 PM

I've only been smoking for 7 years now, so it should be easier to quit. :)

Late bloomer, eh?
