Smoking is bad for your health

I want to smoke, but I'm asthmatic and would die even quicker than normal. Plus I don't want lungs clogged with tar, but I don't mind having them clogged up with coke.

So many things to kill you...
So you add another to the list?
Anyway, i'll give up on this thread because no doubt it will just turn into another smoking/non-smoking argument, and you have my opinion already...

In June 2003 new laws in the UK come into effect, i can;t remember all of them and exactly waht most of them are.

terms such as "lights" will be banned.

the maximum strength of a cigarette will be Tar 11mg and nicotine 1.1mg

Superkings will be banned

the packet will be 33% government warnings

all this will be accompanied by mass increase in price to around £5 for 20 benson.

Give up kids its not worth it.

No-one makes you breathe it. Just dont open your mouth or nostrils, and do your bit for Church of Euthanasia.

you do have the magical "Dr Pat Rolling Tobacco" and the infamous "twinpack rizla" so not all bad eh?

also you got 25 packs of Marlboro, and they are 50% stronger than our marlies.
