I'm all for a ban on tobacco in the US. There'd be riots for a week as all the smokers went on jittery rampages... but after that it'd be for the best.

And before y'all start screaming at me, I smoke a pack a day. I hate it, but my insurance doesn't cover Wellbutrin, so quitting with help gets expensive.

This country would burn if tobacco was banned.

The civil war would be a walk in the park.

So, if we banned smoking here completely, would I be spared from seeing another one of those stupid fediddlein' "The Truth" commericals?

Hah, ya got me. However, name 1 positive, non-social, attribute of smoking cigarettes. It's not like a gun control arguement, they really have no use other than getting people addicted to an easily obtained substance.

Wellbutrin = Zyban. Got an appointment for the first week of January with my doc to get a new perscription. I quit before using it. Makes it real easy. Then I ended up at a birthday party for a girl that's really hot, but she chainsmokes. A couple hours later sitting at the bar, shooting tequila, and I was a nicotine addict again. I hate mixing it with my Concerta (ritalin) though. Makes for a really bad month where I feel like I have no soul. Plus I can't sleep well, and when I do, they give me the most surreal dreams, so much so, I'd rather be awake & drinking coffee... and I *love* sleeping.
