Nice half comma dude! Thank you for the support!
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

365 days!! Congrats Steve, great quit you've been killing all along. Never a doubt in my mind. See you on roll for your 366 ... proud to call you a July '14 DD brother, and friend!
A year is bad ass, let's do it again!
Thanks, guys! It sure helps to have fellow quitters leading the way! And belated thanks for the 300 congrats...I sometimes forget to check my intro.

Since this bumps my intro up, I will share a bit of news I heard on the radio Saturday:
Setting The Record Straight On The Phrase 'Gateway Drug'

They have studied nicotine as a gateway drug to other substances like marijuana and cocaine. It seems nicotine "primes" the brain for other addictions. This is a concern given the popularity of ecigarettes among young people.

Here is a link to the NEJM article:
A Molecular Basis for Nicotine as a Gateway Drug
Congrats on a year dude. See you on 366.

Happy 3-hundo brother! Enjoy the day!
Solid quit- soak it in, you've slammed it this far! Who would have imagined how good it feels to be free, right?!?

Steve,

Proud as hell to quit with you bro! Congrats on the 2nd floor ... as the first (and only) person I've met at KTC, we share a pretty cool bond. A "keep your pants on there fella" type of bond (for clarity). I'll quit with you again today, and EDD! 'Cheers'
Well done my man!
Sweet!
Nice job friend.
Thanks to everyone for the congratulations AND for saving my life. As I have stated before, I never even considered quitting for good until I found KTC. Second floor may just be a baby step, but it sure feels good!

Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.
