1000 days smoke free...

...but who's counting...?
Please join me in a smoke free day today...
even if only for one day.....
Portrait a month after quitting

According to the Wall Street Journal....

... 69% of adult smokers said they wanted to 
quit smoking in 2010. Nearly 50% attempted 
to do so...only 6.2% succeeded. I am lucky to 
have gotten out of this alive... please join me 
to NOT SMOKE tomorrow, May 20th.

If everyone quits, what a breath of fresh air that 
would be!

998 days and counting. Please join me in making May 20th a No Smoking Day worldwide

On Monday, May 20th, 2013, I will have been 
smoke free for 1000 days. Please encourage all 
smokers that you know to refrain from smoking 
on that day, if just for one day.

Thank you for joining me in helping the world 
be smoke free. Breathe that fresh air!

Smoking ban in Wales upheld: crews on TV and film sets still not allowed to smoke

Link: Smoking ban in Wales upheld; TV and film industry will just have to deal with it...
















BBC reports that Wales does not yield to pressure 
from the entertainment industry to allow smoking
on sets, despite veiled threats that the economy will 
suffer as  the TV and film industry seeks other 
locations that are more smoke friendly. The Welsh 
government stands by its policy that smoke free is 
the way to be. No matter how cool it looks....

This is me before I made the breakthrough....

It's been 994 days since I last had a cigarette.
I will celebrate one thousand days... please 
celebrate with me by not smoking that day...
May 20....

Happy Mother's Day

In remembrance of all Mothers on this day;
and to my mom Mary Jane, whom I'm sure 
wished she had quit smoking long before 
she did. To her credit, she quit at a younger 
age than I; and, like me, she quit cold turkey.

She lived to be 78; smoke free for the last 
twenty-eight years of her life. Nice work, ma! 
Happy Mother's Day to you and all mothers
of the world. 

One drastic method to quit smoking....

This is amongst the most drastic methods of
