Nov. 17th, is the American Cancer Society's annual Great American Smokeout. This annual event is designed to encourage smokers to abstain from tobacco for 24 hours, and develop a game plan to permanently quit.

Nearly 1 in every 5 adults in the U.S. still smoke. Planning to quit? Today sounds like a good day to at least try.

Love to hear what you think.
