I would NEVER stick that shit in my face.... FUCK UST!!!

You have 1 hour to live. Would you go off by yourself and crank a dip or would you spend time with [insert]?

I'd spend it with my boys Jack and Quin running around Berlin Pond in Berlin, Vermont. That's about as close to heaven as Soul is going to get.

I would spend time with my wife, my three kids and my new friend named FREEDOM.

Whether nicotine dependency was established and/or maintained by being chewed, smoked, drank, snuffed, sprayed, swallowed, sucked, licked or patched, in the end there is only one way out - no nicotine today.

Well said.

[LLCope]

I admire that 261 days of GOOD QUIT!

Fanpro hits 5 years today. 5 years is impressive. What is more impressive? He is still on this site building quit every single day. Thanks Fanpro for paving the way for the rest of us.

Today's musings

Yesterday in introductions I was fucking with a non committed lurker.  Having some fun and trying to figure out what button to push to get this guy to quit.  Anyhoo, I posted up a self deprecating comment about being a drug addict.  I gave that some thought after I read my own comment.  The drug addict thing has been a journey for me.

(1) I remember calling myself a drug addict in my HOF speech.  It hit me hard.  I kinda knew I was but when I wrote it and read it was an emotional experience.  Hard to explain but I do not think I have to explain it to this group.  You get it.

(2) I then kinda grew to just to tolerate it.  It just is.

(3) I then grew to accept it.  Yea, I was a drug addict and I knew I had to honor the rule of addiction.  http://killthecan.org/robs/law.asp  I had no problem with that.

(4) Now I am proud of it.  It is who I am.  I AM a drug addict.  More importantly.  I AM a quitter.  I AM quit addict.  I can tell people this or make fun of myself or make fun of another hard core quitter.  It IS who I am and I like it.  This addict quits with you today.  Probably see ya tomorrow as well.

Sounds like the path is getting more defined for you. I'm glad you know the way out.

Good quitting brother.

Scowick,

Thanks for your STRONG QUIT. It is a great example to the rest of us. Good stuff here.

Musings based on a post by Syndrome:

Lifeboats

Q: Why post roll?
A: It is effective. Habitual posters seldom fail.

Q: Why do you care if I post roll, should you not just post roll and worry about your own quit?
A: Lifeboats.

Lifeboats

Today my quit is strong but what about tomorrow? If tomorrow my quit is weak then I need and want help. I want a lifeboat full of quitters who have voluntarily enlisted to quit and be with me in the boat that day. They have a toolbox full of quit skills and are motivated to help me. I know I can depend on everyone in the lifeboat. We work as a cohesive team. A new quitter simply needs post roll and jump in the lifeboat committed to save his life no matter what it takes. The rest of us in the lifeboat will show you how.

If you are NOT committed to saving every single personÂ’s life in the lifeboat including yours then you need not take up a seat.
