Almost funny, til you think about it....

Our random picture today is of a cheese-filtered cigarette.

What a waste of good cheese. How degrading for our (my) favorite dairy product.

I wonder, how many of you smoke? I don't, but nearly all of my friends do. I think it would probably decrease my risk of lung cancer if I started smoking, that's how many of my friends smoke. :P

Once you've made it to eighteen it is statistically unlikely that you'll ever smoke. One usually starts earlier in their teen or pre-teen years.

Yeah, I smoke.

I do not smoke. My Grandmother died of emphysema from smoking at age 54. She would wake up in the morning hacking and with her first good breath, she would light up. It was horrible to watch. How could I ever smoke after that? She was also an alcoholic with a beer belly. Very attractive. Not.

Oh and its not just lung cancer. I used to work for a pharmaceutical company's oncology department and many cancers are linked to smoking and chewing tobacco. It gets me very frustrated to see so many young people smoking so early in life. Don't they value their lives at all? Please tell all of your friends to quit smoking. *Stepping down off soap box*

Brad, that's what I've heard, and seems to hold true. Most of my friends started at either 13 or 16 years old.

Sue, that's horrible! :(
And, yeah, I'm not much of one for that particular soap box but when I come across something anti-smoking related I usually let it slip through and I will frequently talk about different quitting methods as soon as somebody says "I'm thinking of quitting smoking..."
I figure they're not going to quit unless they already want to.
