Book Cover & Preview Text
Warning: If you have smoked more than three modern filtered cigarettes (MFCs) you are probably stuck to Tar Baby. MFCs have been scientifically crafted to maximize stickiness and brand loyalty. Lots and lots of money went into perfecting your smoking experience. So, if you are a smoker, you are stuck. In addition, at present, your brain works differently from those of non-smokers. You will be able to understand what I mean better after you read this whole book. Nicotine in cigarette smoke alters our brains in a way that makes us feel like we can never completely un-stick ourselves. The subtle and profound effects of nicotine on the brain are not widely known, and these effects are almost completely unknown to smokers. This is why learning a few wrestling techniques can be of help for successful smokers. Actually, we all can get free and stay that way - if we want to. We can’t learn less. Beware that once you begin to think about Tar Baby and what is presented here, you may find it difficult to stop thinking about Tar Baby. Tar Baby, watch your back.
