This page is by no means complete. But it is enough for now. Feel free to email Jim Lang with additions for the list. Be a quittin' pal. <G>

There are more sections below. Another group of reasons to quit, followed by things that help me.

Do everyone a favor. If you know a smoker, don't pester him or her. All that ever did was irritate me. Just offer a little support once in a while.
  • So why quit smoking? Since 4:00 on 5 March 2000, here are some reasons. BTW, I started this list instead of running for a pack. I'm making this page instead of running for a pack. Every time I want a pack, I'll work on something else.
  • Thanks, quittin pals! Without a little help right now, I'd be loopey.
  • They test smokes on critters!
  • Every cigarette smoked is a nickel for the tobacco companies.
  • Shorter (anything here. How about) life.
  • Before we can love someone else, we must first learn to love ourselves.
  • Love myself by quitting. Pass it around.
  • Think of the Kids!
  • When was the last time you kissed an ashtray?
  • Do I want to find (and maybe marry?) a smoker? If I don't, why should she?
  • $3/pack = $30/week = $1,560 per year
  • My boss would pay me to quit. Not that the money I save won't be enough to pay for the patch or the gum. He can keep it. I'll have my reward.
  • What if one acre of tobacco were planted as corn instead?
  • Roller blade around the penninsula in 50 minutes this year.
  • Dad
  • Mom
  • It smells bad.
  • My windshield looks like poop.
  • Bad breath (see kissing ashtray above)
  • Think of the kids.
  • Yellow teeth (Hey, mine are brighter already!)
  • Cancer
  • Flavor. There is a world of flavor out there I haven't even seen yet. I want to taste it all.
  • That time thing.
  • Girls don't like kissing ashtrays.
