It probably makes smokers concentrate better, but their baseline concentration without smoking is probably impaired due to nicotine withdrawl symptoms to start with, so perhaps it merely brings them back up towards that of a non smoker ;-)

Ever seen a regular smoker try to do anything complicated when they need a cigarette? Half the time they can barely light it without shaking...

Sure, it starts like a butterfly sitting on a petal, but it finishes like a bulldog eating porridge.

I quite like it when the butterfly has a little moustache...

I remember a g/f once saying "try and find the little man in a canoe".  

I spent the next three hours searching, but by the time I got back from the canal, she'd buggered off home.
