Bear, Let the debate begin, or continue. I think quitting smoking is easy as pie when you want to do it badly enough. Would you like a peice of apple pie? Here's a really nice picture of one... :) Pat [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]1/28/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 130 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 5,200 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1,820.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 15 [B]Hrs:[/B] 9 [B]Mins:[/B] 32 [B]Seconds:[/B] 52

We all know what brainwashing is don,t we ?? G.M.,Ford and all the major car manufactures have been using it for years.They call it advertising ?? You know were they tell you if you just buy this years model how happy you,ll be !! And we all know how good the tobacco companys were at it with their illusions of how cool,romantic and sexy it was to smoke,hell they even convinced the movie industry it was good to smoke and showed shots of Bogart toking er up. But now I,m wondering,(and please,please,do not get me wrong I am not being critical),if we are not being subject to our own brainwashing .You tell me it,s difficult to quit smoking,I believe you so it must be difficult and now I,m going to prove how difficult it is to quit smoking. I,m not interested in starting a full blown debate about this just thought I,d throw it out there for what it,s worth!!
