Am I a smoker?

Maybe I'm just in denial but I'm not a smoker. I can live with herfer though.

I often wonder how much car pollution attributes to cancer... Sometimes I wonder if that is more problematic than cigars and cigarettes together. It seems to me that focusing on smoking may be an alternative to causing the auto industry and oil companies from getting hit with lawsuits. Everyone is effected by gas fumes and smog but now adays very limited groups are effected by cigar and cigarrette smoke. When or if they make smoking illegal where will they place the blame for lung cancer next? Just a strange thought

I am of the philosophy that the leading cause of death is living.

You smoke cigars. You're a smoker. The problem you have is you've attached a stigma to smoking...just like the anti-smoking camp.

I'm only commenting on the stigma to smoking that my doctor has told me about. He is the one with the stupid questions. Are you a smoke Never, always and used to. Ha. I will continue to enjoy my cigars but it is no ones business if I'm asked if I smoke. The answer is NO and I'm good with that. I feel that i need to work on the other areas of my life that will kill me, like: eating to much and not exercising. I'm a big guy and I don't want to be a diabetic. Cigars help me relax. When I sit down for a hour or more with a stogie, it's like deflating the stress for awhile.

You need to see my doctor. He is of the opinion that smoking is only assessed by the act If you consume a pack of cigarettes a day - you're a smoker if you have an occasional cigar to relax - you're not,

To all those haters - put that in your pipe and smoke it!
