Can I Get Him To Quit? Probably Not...

I've written before that Texican is a smoker. He smokes more than a pack a day, and sometimes to the extreme of more than two packs a day!

On his last visit to the doctor, she told him she could stand there and tell him that at 61 he should stop smoking, but he's been smoking since he was seven-years-old, and she said she knew he wouldn't listen to her if he wouldn't listen to me! [I have a chronic lung condition, and he still won't stop! Even for MY HEALTH!]

And I don't ask him to. I have asked him to cut back. Which he'll try to do for a few days or weeks, but then he's right back up to that pack, or two, a day before you know it. So, I doubt he'll ever stop.

And I don't ask him to stop! I may sound silly to some people, especially in this day and age of health consciousness not to harp on him to stop. But he's smoked all of his life, and if it gives him such great pleasure, and it does!, then who am I to take that away from him at this age!

Could it kill him?

Certainly!!! But then so could getting behind the wheel of a car! Or walking alongside a road! Or even horseback riding! Slipping in the shower!

I won't be the one to take that pleasure away from him!

But he does get frustrated! Our society was a smoking society when he was a young man! One couldn't walk into a restaurant or any other establishment for that matter, and not find ashtray's and smoker friendly atmosphere! Today however, we have banned smoking from all public buildings! And it frustrates those of his generation to no end!

That's why I am seriously considering the purchase of an electronic cigarette for him!

blu  is one of the companies that is now manufacturing these electronic cigarettes. You can visit their website here: http://blucigs.com/?utm_source=blogsvertise&utm_medium=cpa&utm_content=text&utm_campaign=blogsvertise_cpc_cpa

I am impressed that blu can be smoked most anywhere! And instead of smoke, it eliminates a vapor, thus elminating the hazards of second-hand smoke to others nearby! Yet it gives the "smoker" all of the nicotine and flavor of a real cigarette! It also comes in a variety of flavors, including Classic Tobacco for the individual who wants to maintain the flavor of a "real" cigarette.

The cost is comparable to the real thing, and yet, it is something he can still "smoke" when in most public places!

If you are a smoker who refuses to quit, or you know someone who is, then this just might be the solution for you as well! I highly recommend that you visit:

and see for yourself just what they have to offer!

Matter of fact, I'm heading that way right now! Meet ya there!
