I don't smoke, but occasionally when I'm out having a few drinks with a smoker, I'll have one. I have tried insomniasexx's ecigs in the past and they are much preferable to cigarettes. I get the same buzz, but I don't stink and the next morning, my lungs don't feel like hell. I never considered that you can dial up or down the amount of nicotine in your product used. -Interesting point.Well, yes, I am both those things. But I don’t stink of smoke or heartily cough my guts up in the morning anymore so I’m generally nicer to be around. But more importantly, I am able to choose the percentage of nicotine I inhale through the brand I buy, weaning myself off gradually by reducing the level in the products.
After a weekend in Vegas, I was reminded of a smell that I had totally forgotten about: The wave of nastiness that hits you when you get in the shower after a night at the bar, the stale smoke steaming out of your hair and skin. I hadn't smelled that in years, due to the welcome proliferation of smoking bans. Definitely brought back some memories, as only smells can.
I used to play shows at a place called the Elbow Room in Ypsilanti. It was my favorite stage to play on for a number of reasons, but damn if it wasn't the smokiest place on earth. There were times that I couldn't get a sound out of my throat because of it. It was actually the second smokiest place. The first smokiest is the "smoking car" on an Amtrack train. Damn dude, that shit is disgusting.
