Today is the 32nd Annual Great American Smokeout, a day when all Americans are urged to have their last cigarette before embarking on a new, healthier lifestyle.

This YouTube video celebrates National Smoke Out Day by showing clips of people smoking some not so legal cigarettes in various movies. It actually makes me want to smoke but that’s another story.

I’ve never regularly smoked, just having the odd cigarette or cigar in social situations, but I know from friends and family who have smoked how hard it is to give up the habit.

These days, everything suggests you should give up smoking, from the social pariah aspect, with more people being non-smokers than smokers, and the obvious health implications.

Give it up, and do it today when you know you’ll be attempting it along with millions of other people. And if all else fails, visit a hypnotist – it worked for my dad.
