OK so in the back of my house is the staris to go up onto the porch. At the top I keep an old Joint Compound bucket for cigarette butts. For some reason (i havent used it all day... or yesterday) it was on fire. When the FedEx delivery woman dropped off an emvelope today, she smelled it burning and dragged it into my yard and threw sand on it to extinguish the fire... The bucket sits about 4" from the vinyl siding and with any decent breeze the entire house could have gone up starting with the porch.



Thank You FedEx!!!!!!!
 
oh yeah! Who doesn't love the smelling of burning plastic and stale cigarette butts!

I quit when I was 30....when I had kids.
You have kids dont you.......ever think of them ?
Sorry I have lost more then one person close to me form cigs.
I dont see the humor.
 
That's when I quit smoking. And drinking. My son is way too important to me.
 
Im an Admin for Fedex, And I have to give her props, If you can PM me her info I will make sure she can get the recognition she deserves.

For people that are thinking about quiting thier smoking habbit Please for the love of god DO NOT TAKE CHANTIX.

I was diagnosed with Bone cancer last july so I had surgery to get it removed and post op they gave me chantix without informing me, and I took it for 2 months only to be diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in Sept.
I did some reasearch and spoke with many many doctors and all signs point to the fact of taking chantix post op I had the 80% chance of developing MS.

So please stay away from Chantix.
 
smoked around all three of my boys, and now in there 20's they are all body builders they never picked up the habit. as for me being a professional i say that to keep docs and non's from judging me. i am 50 been smoking since i was 9 and have had 2 heart attacks and triple bypass. lungs are clear, stress KILLS that is what got me.
 
I am one who believe in God and fate, regardless whether you are a health nut or a smoker or a drinker, your destiny is set, had a friend of mine that had been the workout king since he was 15, worked out everyday, ate healthy, ran 3 times a week and died of a heart attack at 39

You can believe in what you want.
Simple fact is if you play on the freeway.... odds are your going to get hit by a car. :rolleyes:
Sure $hit can happen but come on ....You do control a part of your own fate.

Sorry about your friend life sucks somtimes.
 
yeah i have kids, i do not smoke around then though, i dont need anyone to preach to me, i'm a smoker, its an addiction, and right now, i have no interest in trying to kick it, i know it kills, i know it causes serious health issues so does eating an apple these days. i'm not worried about it.
 
Someone once told me every Cig you smoke takes 7 minutes from your life.
And I replied Good, that means I will a have a shoter span of depends and wheelchair bound time ;)

Fair enough I will get off my soap box.
I fully understand ....you have no interest in quiting.
But the "I am addicted" bull$hit dont fly with a ex smoker.
 
I quit 2 years ago. Cold turkey flat out and to this day and every day that passed I still grind my teath and chew on my tongue simply cause I still think I need one.


They f*cking suck!

My grandfather was pretty much my only farther I had in life since my real Dad took off and I had to sit and watch him shrivel away to nothing before it finally killed him.

My wife's Grandfather smoked from the time he was 13-80 something years old. He tried to quit a few times but it never worked. Before he died he really would have liked to have quite but the Dr. told him at this stage with the other problems that would kill him before anything else.


No matter what smoking cigarettes in the end sucks!!
