Stick this in your pipe and smoke it
Grandad July 11th, 2007
I came across an article in yesterday’s Irish Times Health Supplement.
It’s by Dr Muiris Houston.
According to a study published this week in the US medical journal Archives of Neurology, tobacco smoking is associated with a reduced risk of developing Parkinson’s Disease.
One extract says
“And other tobacco products also appeared to be protective with men who smoke pipes or cigars having a 54 per cent lower risk of developing Parkinson’s Disease.”
Hmmmm.
Hah!

Quick, gimme a fag before I turn into an aging, boring old fart and have to interview Zsa Zsa Gabor for about the fifty millionth time!!!
Mmmm - I knew there HAD to be benefits of this smoking lark - I mean nothing is THAT bad for you is it?
Its good to know that I won’t get Parkinsons before I get lung cancer:)
You know how it is with modern research - sooner or later, they are going to discover that smoking is very beneficial, and will be encouraging us all to light up!
