NO SMOKING - TWO WEEKS

[officialmaxguzzo]

wow no smokin 3 weeks that s great! :) keep your distance from smoke! go on like this man!

[streetspiritlive]

well, i've listened to this for the umpteenth time

but i have to admit

i don't care for all that other stuff.

Supposed to make me happy...

Ain't no musician, just an artist

though I can't do without them

for inspiration...

where's the nicotine gum/gun!!!

In case you silly boy, you can make me happy at this point

don't point to my nighty cause i haven't got one!! LOL!!!

[cinderellalifestyle]

good for you Mikee!! that's super....it's worth the anguish...;-) I sure did not have 40, more like 13-14 under my belt, that was 19 years ago now....funny, I cannot picture me smoking anymore....I think they ought to induce a coma and let people sleep a couple months....great song, and therapy--pity the cat.

[monello198]

@Maysey1

No Smoking - Week Three video on our newsite MusiciansTogether..

follow the link in the info box..

and when you get there join us mate

mikee

;-}~

[LanangYogya]

Wow, I really appreciate that Mikee! You know I'm using electronic cigarette now to stop my habit smoking regular cigarette. It's hard since I'm a heavy smoker (and Indonesian cigarette is really strong with high nicotine). I hope I can quit the use of my e-cig too later.

[monello198]

@LanangYogya

hi Andi...

i'm on patches...

it's been 3 weeks now mate..

you keep at mate, if an old fool like me with 40 years of smoking then so can you

mikee

;-}~

by the way, come and join us all on MusicianTogether, follow the link in the notes of this video

[LanangYogya]

@monello198 we can't find patch and gum, even e-cig is hard to find here. I guess the government try to banned those since they got the high tax from regular cigarette company. Suck! OK I will join Musician Together Mikee, thank you sir! :)

#39 - Most Discussed (This Week)) - Comedy - United Kingdom

[tps607]

Mikee...I just noticed you are making the guitar quit too...do you really think it needs a patch?  ol

[monello198]

@tps607

it's not so much that guitar is giving up it's just that it and cat have been fitted with patches to counter the loss of passive smoke..

why should they suffer for my decision?

see what a thoughtful old man i am?

;-}}~

[tps607]

@monello198 Yes,I see that now...be careful it doesn't get to be well known.It would ruin your public image.

[monello198]

@tps607

f**k off

[streetspiritlive]

well, i hit the like button again gee laser therapy looks good Wish i could afford it! just another distracting thought. before i go to bed, n wake up to another brand new day i can actually smell! But i hear on the radio that its a smog day You tell me, what's the bloody point of me clearing my lungs when the city i live in isn't breathable! Ok just add a pissed off smokeless dragon to the cat under the bed! Be happy she doesn't show up at the park!! like i could find it in the fog...

[EdMuirton]

Haha! Best of luck with it mate!

[streetspiritlive]

It's dead easy mate...

you should give it a go sometime..

[streetspiritlive]

Walking home again ; )) ps. thanks greatly also for the Rowan Atkinson Invisible Drums Thing, That was Brilliant! LOL!!!

@MarkH901

Ayup

I am gratified and contented in t' knowledge that my pain, suffering and torment has bought you such joy t' brighten an otherwise dull northern afternoon..

Rest assured that in t' interests of 'schadenfreude I shall alert you if any terminal illnesses are diagnosed as a result of years of my pitiful addiction.

'mikee

[sneakyuploads]

Good news, keep it up, If i can stop then you can for sure, Oh and great song. Cheers

Wayne

[YoppyKyabetsu]

It will be two years in June for me. I feel your pain. Good on you, Mikee!

[monello198]

@YoppyKyabetsu

Thank you..

[geoff1945]

Great song Mikee.

[monello198]

@geoff1945

Thank you Geoff

[Toracube]

Moody git.

Good luck with kicking the habit. My sister gave up after 30 years. She wanted to see her kid grow up.

Best way to fuck yourself up is smoking. You look fucking cool, but your lungs are screwed. Cancer is a bastard they tell me. :(

Bill Hicks was a funny guy, wasn't so funny coughing his lungs out though.

Good luck Mikee !!!

[monello198]

@raespencer

thanks Rachel.... and Hubs..

your support is most welcome, although to be fair it is all going well despite what the song portrays..

i am receiving wonderful support from 'er in internet..

mikee

;-}~

[roadbikegarden]

YOU ARE A STAR.

I am so proud of you. It's not easy.

poor Jessica.x.

[monello198]

[roadbikegarden]

@monello198

Great song! Ine

[monello198]

@inousch

[streetspiritlive]

Its a great song, at least you still have your sense of humor...

On a positive note, you can get to the pub without taking a rest...

well, that's a good start!

Cheers and more power to you dear Mikee!

Love, m ; )

[monello198]

@streetspiritlive

good to hear from you..

see you in the Park?

;-}}~

[ar2619]

@monello198 Yeah, we'll be there but we haven't made any arrangements yet, so I suppose it's about time we did.

 I smoked for twenty odd years, gave up fags first and made do with half a dozen reefers a day but have reluctantly given up all of it a year or two ago. Don't miss fags at all now but the Bob Hope..........

[monello198]

@ar2619

Ahh dear Bob was the problem last time I tried, about 20 years ago..

but this time I am pursuing a parallel culinary support initiative

;-}~

ps.. well done you!!

[TINMANschannel]

Alan

[monello198]

@TINMANschannel

unlike the cat that had to be held down and shaved before i could get a patch to stick to her!

mikee

;-}~

[TINMANschannel]

@monello198 oh you really have stopped thought u were acting lol i better book some anger management classes for you

[monello198]

@Maysey1

@ZachsGayCat

;-}}~

[effects69]

Good on ya! I quit 3 years ago. Best thing I ever did :)

[monello198]

@effects69

[sproutcentral]

So this is why you don't have Skype turned on anymore. Probably just as well.

Good luck Mr. Crankypants ;-))

[monello198]

@sproutcentral

thank you David..

actually my skype is turned on, it's just set as invisible as i'm being pestered by an old drunken italian friend in a different timezone who calls up pissed out of his head and slurring in his native dialect when it's mid afternoon for me..

now i know how you feel

;-}~

[Gregparkerblues]

This explains everything. (Describing my hand-made African blues hat as "silly'. !!??)

All is forgiven,but I'm still nervous. You were cranky enough,before.I like your song about the miserable need to 'break the world's strongest habit'.***** Regards,Greg.

[monello198]

@Gregparkerblues

morning Greg

thanks for visiting me here in lala land.

my advice? stay nervous!

as mad as a hatter me
