It's in the household cleaning section right near the Lysol and the Airwicks.

I dont know you and really have no place to say this, but I wonder if anyone has ever really told you.

At 20 I was just like you. My vice was racing motocycles, not smoking, but believe me they can both kill you.

Now at 43 and after having watched TWO of my high school friends DIE from lung cancer...I have a different perspective. The last one caught a cold that wouldnt go away. he finaly went in to the doctor for test and found out he had cancer. 6 months later he was dead. He was a big guy, probably 250 when he got sick...he was maybe 150 when he died. he was a tough guy, first one in a fight, and the first one to be your friend if you needed something...he wasnt so tough those last few months.

I bet if I asked his wife and two kids, they would have a different perspective on smoking now as well.

so keep saying its not an option to quit...

I realize this is a rant and its your life, and you dont have to listen to anyone. I just cant understand the mentality of a person who would no more play russian roulette, but will risk the same thing (in a longer time frame) with smoking.

All I can say is I'm young, dumb and full of.. .. well you know the saying. One of these days reality will slap me in the face.

When I use to smoke I would crack the window a inch or so and let the lit smoke sit as close to that as possible. This sucked out most the smoke. Then, when I was done, I opened the windows and that blasted the stale air into the cab. Then whenever possible I parked I opened the windows.

Come on, folks - quit ******* him about smoking. He knows the risks and all you clowns are doing is alienating him. This is not the place to do that, this is a place where he can get help in taking care of the damage to his TRUCK, not his lungs. How would you beer drinkers like it if everywhere you went, people ragged on you about the evils of alcohol? Same principle!

It's all good friends. There's nothing anybody here or anywhere for that matter can say to change a person's mind. Well, maybe if they're 5'3", red haired and have certain features......
