so you could have stopped smoking for 50 years but you haven't really given up til you're dead?

It would seem it is when youre body has fully recovered from being a smoker that you have completely given up. That would be from about 10 years after your last cigarette (depending on how much you smoked!).

Well if I don't smoke RIGHT now... I'm a non-smoker, cos I'm not smoking... even if I haven't given up, if I don't have a cigarette in my mouth, I'm not smoking and thus a non smoker... jaysus, if ya were to think you've to wait 10 years to have given up, why would anyone bother?

Oh by the way, I'm in one of the official photos . The first Copenhagen photo, I'm at the bottom right corner. Also in the other crowd pic in Copenhagen, Gerry's camera is in front of my face in the bottom right corner :cool: I'm famous now!

just to throw in another thing

I thought every 7 years you were a new person, as in by then your body and regenerated !

Because you know will be so much more healthy.. your risks of heart attack, stroke, lung cancer, mouth or throat cancer will be reduced to those of a non-smoker, you will have much more energy.. and it is something you can look forward to. But there are benefits from the first few days.. nicotine will be flushed out of your system, better oxygenation of the lungs, taste and smell will improve.

Now saying you are a non-smoker at the moment is correct because you have not been smoking for 2 weeks (and your intention is to continue with that! ). But saying that one is a non-smoker just because they don't have a cigarette in their mouth at the moment is silly... just like me saying I'm on a diet because I'm not stuffing my face with chocolate right this minute!

Don't be so arguementative.. go have a fag

well byrnzie kinda said that the fact I said I've given up means I don't intend to stick to it... that's hardly making any sense at all... but now I'm bloody sorry I said anything at all :mad: when's lunch?

:rolleyes: You've never given up have ya?

Jaysus, I hate that bullshit when you say you've given up... 'well you haven't given up till you're off them and STAY off them' so you could have stopped smoking for 50 years but you haven't really given up til you're dead?

If it had been a month I would have thought, "o.k, maybe". Sorry H, 15 hours doesn't cut it. You'll need to do better than that.

By the way...the physical addiction to cigarettes is gone after ONLY 18 days, its the psychological that takes longer. Living in modern day ireland offers a perfect opportunity to give up smoking by not having it blown in your face in the pub etc.....you'll get there helen, you just need to believe that you will, if you don't....well...you wont Never thought my work would come in handy in the pit, I can officially put down that I am on here on official work business....sweet

Hi Alphonse! Tell me... what is this wink for? Just for the sake of it - I do like a wink from a charming young man every once in a while.. or...

Is it a conspiratory (does that word even exist!) wink? I do need to know what it's all about if I'm to be 'in on it'!

Hitch - you're lazy..

Thanks Al shite, I hope you're not charging me . Nah, I know how it works... did it last year :rolleyes: I was just hoping for maybe a wee pat on the back to get me on my way instead of 'you haven't given them up at all' or 'why don't you go out for a fag' very supportive, lol.

I am beautifully depressed.
And trying to get a fellow music comedy person into Pearl Jam. She likes depressing music like Coldplay...

I am thinking of making a series of mix PJ cds, for different people, for example my categoriers would be:

1) PJ for the suicide prone
2) PJ for trash punkies
3) PJ for the indie, I like to listen to weird sounds and be experimental kids
4) PJ for the REM fan
5) PJ for the country/folk fans
6) PJ for the sappy romantics
7) PJ for the clueless ...




Here is what I burned for her:
1. Long Road
2. Inside Job
3. Hard to imagine
4. Nothingman
5. Wishlist
6. Off he goes
7. Thumbing my way
8. Fatal
9. I got shit
10. Gone
11. Black
12. Betterman
13. Small Town
14. All or none
15. Indifference
16. Arc
17. Immortality


She will probably fall asleep after 4 songs... or jump out a window after 3

But I do need PJ projects to keep me occupied with.
