I have trouble understanding why tobacco is permitted at all. It contains,
after all, one of the deadliest poisons known to exist. Still, fortunes
have been made from peddling that poison as a beneficial products other
than a deadly chemical.

During my best attempt to uit smoking tobacco I almost wore a hole in
the front of my shirts reaching for that pack of Camels that wasn't
there. It took being in a coma for a week to finally get the nicotine
out my body and reduce the physical cravings. But I still found myself
reaching for the cancer sticks for a year or more afterward.
