The first step to overcoming your CBid addiction is divesting yourself of all that you have purchased from them. I will pm you my address so that I can help you begin the process.

Flaco, the petroleum lobby is far too strong for there to ever be anything critical ever said anywhere about what gasoline, oil, etc. does to our health. Just try and go for a day without consuming petroleum-based products, I dare you. It's everywhere, it's not going away, and we will suck this planet dry of every last drop before we are done.

Hmmm, I suppose I would say that I believe maybe 60% of the article. But the overall tone of "this is incontrovertible truth" really annoys me. I am soooo tired of people saying that one cigar contains the same amount of tobacco as one pack of cigarettes. One idiot contains as much stupidity as a football team-worth of people with common sense - does that mean we will have the state euthanize such a person before he/she brings down the rest of us? And obviously, from his description of "cigars are a roll of tobacco wrapped in a tobacco leaf or paper dipped in tobacco" - whattttt?????????????? - leads one to believe he is talking about Phillies or the like, rather than the stuff that most of us smoke.

As for addiction, well, from the look of things, I am mostly addicted to reading things that are going to raise my blood pressure.

I am addicted to cigars. I can not wait until I get out of work, get home, pour something to drink and smoke my stogie. So yes, I am adicted. The only time I do not smoke a cigar is when I am sick. If I don't get my stogie, I get kind of bummed out and I find it hard to get to sleep, sometimes not getting much sleep because I did not have my stogie.

Now that I have said it, I am suppose to quit now, right? Screw that, besides being addicted, I luv smoking them. I think my passion for cigars out ways my addiction by about a thousand to one.

Hmmm, your addiction must be mild if you don't smoke when you're sick. People I know who are really really addicted smoke even when they're sick - they have to smoke no matter what - which I don't get, since how pleasurable can it be to smoke when you feel like shit? but that is the way it is.

Hey you CBid junkies, where's your sense of economic prudence and rationality?
The more you bid, the more you save.

I read this earlier today online and was hoping that someone else would catch it. Could that guy be anymore condescending?

Foruntately, there are good people in the world that help support, encourage, and share my so-called "addiction."

Thanks y'all! :)

Thank God Dr. Rob is here, I just don't know how I could continue this terrible habit with all of these super cool addicts. Thanks Dr. Rob, you have shone me the light of the righteous path.
