Fourth of July sidenote.
When at fire works or parades or picnics today, look around and see how many people are really smoking. At first sensation, if only a few people are smoking and you are getting assaulted by second hand smoke it may appear to you that everyone seems to be smoking. But if actually counted and compared to non-smokers there, the smokers are probably a small minority. It was not always like this. We have made good strides as a society.
But as individuals, each and everyone of you here at Freedom have made a great stride. The day you stopped smoking you fought a major battle for freedom and have so far emerged victorious. Today you are truly free to choose whether you smoke or not. Whether you have been smoke free for a few days, weeks, months or even years now, you have taken control and have declared your independence. To keep your freedom of choice, always remember...Never Take Another Puff!

Zep, I always smoked outside..thinking I was sparing my family from my smoke..now I have a new neighbor who is outside smoking..can smell the smoke when the windows are open..never thought about my neighbors when I smoked outside..
are you a BRAVES fan? my husband sure is! He went to Atlanta just to see the Braves play, had a great time!
I feel so guilty just reading all this stuff.
Diana; add to your list - smoking in your car with the windows down. I pulled up to a light this morning right next to a car where the passenger was smoking, and the smoke blew right in my window. Part of me started craving a cigarette, part of me wanted to pull out my air freshener and spray. (oh, geez - I'm turning into a zealot!) I wanted to roll up my window, but I was afraid the smoke smell would be trapped in my car - with me.
I was thinking back to all the times I've smoked in public places and just plain made a nuisance of myself. It is embarassing! I've smoked around children, I've annoyed people, I've smoked around food - it is just disgusting thinking back.
Now, I want a smoke free world - or at least a world where people can only smoke in the privacy of their own bathtubs!
Have a great night all, hope everyone enjoyed this literal and symbolic holiday!
