I don’t smoke but a lot of my friends and colleagues do. I don’t really like to be around smokers coz i'll be breathing polluted air and it will make my clothes and hair stinks, but sometimes just cant help it. just as long as they don’t puff out the smoke directly to my face then I dont really mind.

yeah! it's really hard to think why people keep smoking even they know it has make nothing good on themselves. but I think we should not judge them, sometimes people use it as a defense mechanism to escape for some bad feeling.(just my opinion) thnks for the comment.

smoking is injurious to health and has lot of side effects. Still people smoke, They want to look cool, smart or look for recration or to relieve stress, However in reality it's other way round they are spoiling health and wealth, which can be used for more porductive and developmental causes, I do not smoke.One of the pimary reasons during my teenage i was not allowed to mingle with people who were smokers and used to alcochal, Today when i look back i feel it was a right decision taken by my parents. If any one is smoking, should go to proper rehabilitation centre to do away with smoking, life is not smoke screen its beyond that, you need to experince it.

The consquences for smoking for me have been: 1. I have always dated stunning girls who smoke too...they tend to like guys who smoke. 2. I have always had fun and hung with cool sophisticated people 3. I have never been really sick . Never been to hospital since the age of 8 when I had had by then several life threatning asthma attacks. since taking up smoking shortly after I have not had one. So I'd say it's been good for my "nerves" and so far not injurous to my health or fitness. I am 40 and my doc examined me for a general medical and said he could see I wasn't a smoker. I had to tell him of course. 4.It helps my concentraion and work 5.Nerds tend to steer clear of me. Are you getting my drift? ever get the feeling you've been cheated? try reading this: http://www.lcolby.com/b-chap9.htm that's right. The smoking beagles never got lung cancer. in fact, no animal has ever got lung cancer through smoking in labs despite horrible efforts to induce it. This is because they are in sterile conditions. No other viral or bacterial influence. Conclusion? that is up to you.
