Embrace the fog and know that you will only have to go through this once if you quit and stay quit!!! Rely on your quit group and get plenty of numbers for cave prevention. I makes you that much more accountable if you have to call a brother and ask permission to cave. Also check out live chat if you help in real time. If you need a number mine is available for the asking. [/QUOTE]
Thanks for the good info, I needed that because I was just thinking how I would get help if I needed it in an emergency. Thanks again

Quote from: Maverick55You need to learn to laugh though, that WikiLeaks shit was funny - though perhaps not as funny as Ostrich inseminator...
Im laughing now, But the Ostrich insemination thing is a little more funny than wikileaks sorry

Quote from: bigbamadanI'm guessing ostrich inseminator. (I wouldn't want to admit to that either)

Glad you are quit. You can do it. We are all proof that the site works.
'crackup' you guessed it, now I sure hope I can learn from all of you as to how to quit and stay quit

Quote from: Maverick55Bond, James Bond?Ã,  Holy shit, does the Queen know you dip?Ã, 

Listen, you're only as good as your word around here.Ã,  You say you absolutely can't post everyday, your quit brothers will likely give you the benefit of the doubt (however hockey your excuse sounds).Ã,  But if you cave and disappear from our "grid" and crawl back here in the future with a lame excuse about the pressure, Goldfinger returned, or WikiLeaks outed you these fine quitters who are trying to show you the way right now will have very little sympathy.Ã,  Now post, give your word and keep it.
Listen I am here to QUIT snuff not talk about me or what I do or what you do for a living. If you read this whole thread you will see I asked if in anyway my not posting daily would effect my quit group. I understand there will be some who think its impossible to go a day without internet or a cell. I do apologize if my excuse doesn't meet the normal standards, its the best I can do. You are barking up the wrong tree because no where did I say I was a James Bond type and besides I am a proud American and dont know much about the queen. At my age I dont need to make excuses anymore, I just need to fix my bad habits.

So lets move on and my word is my word and I want to quit this nasty habit like so many others.
Then you're here for the right reason. Post as often as possible, and keep your word. You need to learn to laugh though, that WikiLeaks shit was funny - though perhaps not as funny as Ostrich inseminator...

Some people will have a difficult time understanding we are not all 9-5 workers and when I was younger I would be "off the grid" for months. Now it usally isnt that long of period. However, we didnt have all these nice electronic toys at our finger tips as we do today. But, these same electronic gadgets can put myself and mainly others at risk in this hi-tech world we live in today and with that said I am not at liberty to get into details.
I hope my quit group can think out of the box with this and I only want to focus on my quit which will be very difficult but its a mission I am ready to tackle head on. And as you said desperation will make me try very very hard to accomplish my goal.
I read between the lines.

Again, welcome to the suck.

It will get better, as long as you stay quit. That means all forms of nicotine.
I knew it......You are a Coyote!

OUTSTANDING!
Ozwald...I certainly appreciate your desperation. Desperation is a very helpful ingredient in a successful quit, methinks. I'll go ahead and ask the question that's in the backs of everyone's mind at this point:

"'ZACTLY WHAT IS IT THAT KEEPS YOU COMPLETELY OFF THE GRID FOR DAYS AT A TIME?"
"the cycle is over. we are clean. we are shining beacons to the masses that think it can't be done." ...LooT

"We have the right to watch our children grow and have earned the right to participate in their lives. We will not be denied. Success can be our only option now. We can never tire, give up, fail, or falter. We are worth more than this addiction and will stop at nothing to beat it." ...Sweenz
