Effects of White Wine and Whiskey

The wine’s gone, and so is the whiskey, and I ask myself – “so do I have an expanded mind yet?” The answer – Yes and No! Yes, for a person who hated to express his views orally, let alone on paper, writing it out and actually posting them on a public forum; NO, for whatever I write makes absolutely NO sense at all. So, this evening when I thought some alcohol would actually help me expand my mind and explore facets of my life that I had not explored before, I would say it worked and it did not.

So why is it that the first things that come to my mind to actually write about are Cigarettes and Alcohol? Is it just coincidence or perhaps fate? Or perhaps it is a higher power that is guiding me to write these words. Crap. The reason I write about this is because this is something that I hear about every day of my life.

Is it the sleep, or is it the alcohol? I don’t have a clue; I still am in my senses, although the words are flowing pretty quickly. Could also be because I’m in “the zone” but I’m not entirely sure.

Smoking is for Thinkers!

Promised to give up smoking as a wedding gift to my two best friends, not knowing what the real consequences were. Or is it just a figment of my imagination that even after 4 months of not smoking a single cigarette I still feel the urge to smoke some times. Not because someone or something tempts me, but because I have this urge to hold a stick in my hand and after I press it against my lips and blow out that cloud of carbon dioxide into the air.

Is it my addiction to Nicotine? I seldom ask myself; I believe not, because if it were, I would have been craving cigarettes for every second for the last four months. But since the craving happens only when I need to THNIK, I believe it is something to do with how my brain is wired and needs some stimulation when I intend to get creative.

By that rationale, I think a new marketing idea for a cigarette company should be related to how people need to smoke while they are thinking. Face it, there is this market of “pseudo” media people who call themselves the great thinkers and the revolutionaries of society and are smokers (I’m assuming here that the stereotype is actually true). And whatever these influencers of society do is what the public picks up. So I think the next campaign by any cigarette company should be “Smoking is for Thinkers!”
