Michelle is right. If you can smell it, it will hurt you.

Affirming life is not sanctimonious but attaching that label to those who cry out for health is
hypocritical.

I can't think of a single instance that smoking has ever helped a singer or musician.
In fact, in some cases, it was a gateway drug, even more that pot.

I wish that musicians would stop romanticizing tobacco and alcohol as if it made one damn bit of difference in the development of a musician, singer, or performer.

Addiction is the result of smoking. All kinds of rationalizations, just like any other addict, are given to defend tobacco use.
