Damn you all for talking me into this...

Pole-Nazi™ Ha! get it, double innuendo :D Thank you kasia I didn't even see that.

[Kasia]

Re: "all the moderators quiting"...If having Steve as a companion during "quiting smoking" is a help than good news...everyone can have him for a "quit smoking companion" because he's ALWAYS "quiting".

Re: Nick, I'm so hesitant to congratulate you because I think pleasing other people is not necessarily a motivator for you and yet I can't help it because I think it's awesome that you're doing/did this.yah and woo-hoo to you!!!

*I've heard (can't recall or claim validity of source...just a news clip somewhere along the way) that people that quite "cold turkey" have the highest rate of success over the long term. GO LONG NICK!

Yeah...like my dad! Right, NICK?!!

[Malbadeen]

ha, ha! I forgot about that. It feels good to be right, doesn't it Sarah.

Now Nick has to make the tough choice...quit smoking - be healthy, save money, and smell better

or

try and maintain his afore mentioned position about "quitters", be a sneak smoker and lend some weight to his previous argument.

tough choice.

Feh, time will tell.

No worries Donna, I'm feeling pretty good about quitting... I still don't "feel" healthy, I think all this get healthy by quitting is a bunch of liberal propaganda; I feel like shit; that is all.

Well I guess there is that gem to look forward to...

Ithink I would get along well with your "less cultured" grandpa; may we dine in hell together some day.

I think it's a bunch of crap too. You'll lessen your chances of getting lung cancer, you won't smell awful, and you won't be addicted to nicotine. I think that's about all you can be certain of. I know plenty of people who developed chronic bronchitis, severe allergies, asthma, ect. AFTER quitting. All claimed to be healthy before.

I believe that, up until last year, I always felt fine. Then I caught a little cold and everything went to the apes...

Nick: this comes a bit late, but... i've never bothered to learn any of that html character stuff myself, but i've got my trusty Character Map© saved to desktop. Just copy and paste.

Nick - remember your quitting thread from about a year ago? That was FUNNY! And also my first intro to the forums at GR.

Soooo, one year later, you've done it!

CONGRADSSSSSSSS
