Other than the fact that I think Charlie Sheen is a bit of a twonker and not necessarily the best Ambassador for ecigs . . . haven't made my mind up yet Lee.

Id rather see this chick on a ecig packet, and she seems to have her head screwed on about the whole thing. As seen in 3:55 of this vid and then right at the end she has the opportunity to say no but she bottles but I think her bod language said it all



Cringe as hell but better face than Sheen.

I think the media storm around Charlie Sheen has died down a bit and although the cheese has obviously slid off the cracker, he could bring a lot of people to e cigs. They would hopefully then get better informed.

On the other hand it might end up where people think "If Charlie Sheen uses them they must be as crazy as he is."

I think we have lost all hope now lol ive seen most of the crazy stuff the media has captured of Charlie Sheen and boy i think lee hit the nail on the head.People will look at that and think "wow i gotta be crazy to try ecig" lol

Sadly as much as I like Charlie Sheen in his films, I don't feel that his behaviour in recent years make him a good ambassador for ecigs or anything else, other than the Betty Ford clinic!

[hissie]

Charlie Sheen is a very ill man & his behaviour shouldn't be a problem to ecig users new & old.

[deesigner]

Sorry Hissie but Charlie Sheen is a Cocaine addict, that's totally by choice! Unfortunately that's the reason he's been in the headlines, you can wrap it up in any way you want but I don't feel a cocaine addict is a good advertisement for ecigs.

[hissie]

He's also been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, which could account for his addictions.

I'm not sticking up for him, just saying.

[deesigner]

I wasn't having a go hun It's a bit of a 'what comes first' the Bipolar or the coke addiction.

After spending several years of my life with someone I thought had gone around the bend, then having the shock of finding that all the 'mental' health issues were due to £52,000 worth of cocaine being used over a 2 year period, I'm not very sympathetic with addicts I'm afraid.

[hissie]

I have no sympathy for addicts at all. In fact, I try, where possible, to specifically avoid heroin addicts. Not sure why I don't like them, I guess it's like people who don't like cats for no reason.

I do.
Several friends and aquaintances have died of smoking related heart and cancer illnesses.
One friend had a lung removed years ago and still smokes.
A friend of a friend lost his toes first, then his leg and still smoked. Dead now.
A friend has emphysema and still smokes.

Sorry Clutter hun, I didn't mean 'lost' in that sense, although I know exactly where you're coming from. I lost my mother in law to lung cancer so yes in that sense you're 100% right.

I was more referring to losing your dignity and turning into a common thief to pay for your fix.
