AJ 500 big ones....You are a big force in the quit of many quitters. I had to go 12 pages deep to find this thread deep in the bone yard of quitters who are still here and some that have come and gone. Nice to have you as the mortar in the halls we call home that hold these bricks together!
Congrats on the half shell brother! Thanks for posting up with us everyday. Well done!
In life we have a lot of people pass by who make a little impression, and then a small handful that make a long term meaningful impact. For many of us on this site, you are one of the few. You are a consistent leader and motivator and I thank you for helping me and others. Enjoy 500 today - you've earned it!
Work put it really well^^^^. Congrats, well done, and thanks for being a big force to so many- in a way that shines with pure class!
This info helped me early on, and still does today: https://whyquit.com/whyquit/linksaaddiction.html

Quitters I’ve met so far: Ihatecope, >Pinched<, T-Cell, grizzlyhasclaws, Canvasback, BaseballPlayer, Cbird65, ERDVM, BradleyGuy, Ted, Zeno, AppleJack, Bronc, Knockout, MookieBlaylock, Rdad, 2mch2lv4, MN_Ben, Natro, Lippizaner, Amquash, ChristopherJ, GDubya, SRohde  -- always eager to meet more!

Thought I'd post today because, in my world of quit, the 4th of July is significant on soooo many levels. Last year during the 4th I was approaching HOF and stoked about it. Freedom becoming a way of life.

This year during the 4th I'm staring down the barrel of half comma status as the next big milestone. Freedom being my new normal.

New guys... You're winning. Every day... You're winning and freedom becomes more precious and real with each victory. Rock on...
Respect.
“We're going to meet a lot of lonely people in the next week and the next month and the next year. And when they ask us what we're doing, you can say, We're remembering. That's where we'll win out in the long run. And someday we'll remember so much that we'll build the biggest goddamn steamshovel in history and dig the biggest grave of all time and shove [nicotine] in it and cover it up.”-Ray Bradbury (slightly modified)
I love this guy! I haven't started worshiping you yet, but you are in my category of idols.
I have a little AJ idol on top of my model of Stonehenge!

In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11

I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11

To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12

Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12

Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13

Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15

I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18

Ignoring history or erasing history fixes nothing and leads you inevitably down the same path.-69franx 04/30/2021
