    Over the holidays I fell in love with a specific type of cigarette (LEGAL) and have smoked a couple times a week since December.

    I know the risks but I've not been able to find info on the short term effects of smoking. I'll quit pretty soon, but I can see how people can get addicted.

    Do you smoke?

    Yes. My GF doesnt so I dont smoke in the house or the car. I smoke about a half a pack a day. I keep saying I`m going to give it up, but I havent found the will power just yet ;) Intresting you bring this up as I saw on the news last night that someone is trying to add $1.00 tax to cigarettes, not sure who or why as I saw it on the crawl at the bottom of the news.

    NEVER. Tried it and was disgusted. I hate smelling someone's clothes and breath full of tobacco... :yuck:

    Parents who use drugs have children who use drugs.
    Remember the "I learned it by watching YOU!" commercial? Damaged me for life. I have to little ones and I will never allow them to smoke. Haven't you learned???

    I almost never smoke, but enjoyed a really nice cigar (cuban) on New Years. I can't stand kissing a girl who smokes, I'm guessing they feel the same way.

    That one always puzzled me. I never really saw the appeal of drinking and smoking together.

    I am basically allergic to nicotine, so I couldn't take a single breath or I'd be gasping for air. Smoke in really small clubs or in close quarters still makes me feel crappy despite my years of playing.

    I used to smoke cigars on occassion but haven't done that in a long time.

    My favorite dorky response to anyone asking if I have a light:

    "No, I only smoke when I'm on fire." :)

    I gave up the cigarettes for herbal jazz cigarettes.

    Then I slowly gave up the herbal jazz cigarettes except for rare instances at parties or something.
