Don't Fight the Smoking Ban - Join It!

Have you noticed how hard it is to be a smoker in Alameda these days? Crowding in doorways gets boring after a while, doesn't it? The reality is, even though smoking might be tough, all the non-smokers LOVE the smoking ban (apart from the crowding round doorways part).

Why do you put yourself through it? Smoking has always been bad for you - but it isn't even cool any more. Looking good and feeling fresh doesn't work well if you're got to pop outside all the time. Not only that, but smoking stinks, it makes your skin age, and it lowers your life expectancy. There aren't really any upsides.

Now is the time to quit. And now there's an easier way to do it, too. The electronic cigarette. More and more people are deciding to buy e-cigs, and for good reason. Not only are e-cigs cheaper, they're better for you too - and here's the big one: you can use them indoors. No more standing in doorways!

Quitting smoking can be tough, that's understandable. You might have tried patches before, and the e-cig uses the same principles. The difference is, you still get to trick your brain into thinking you're smoking, because you still go through the same "act". Not only does your body get the nicotine it needs, but your brain gets the psychological benefit of thinking you're smoking.

If you've seen someone chugging an e-cig and thought it was a real tobacco smoke, that's because many of them are quite realistic. They release a "vapor" instead of actual smoke. Someone might look like they're breaking the smoking ban by lighting up inside, when the reality is they're actually using the electronic alternative. Maybe you should join them.

Tobacco has got tons of harmful chemicals, while the electronic alternative doesn't. They won't make your clothes stink, either - or age your skin. Don't fight the smoking ban - joint it today.
