From your first post you've been a model citizen of ktc. You get it, and you got it early. Nice job helping others find their way with your words if clarity, strength, and encouragement. I'll quit with you today!

Next we careen this Iron Man hauler Southward down the hippy coast toward good ol� Sac town in Northern Cali so we can pick up the renowned headbanger, Rdad. This son of Missoula, MT is married and has two grown kids, a son 21, and a daughter 25. When he was 24 he became entwined within the cruel arms of the heartless nic bitch. But this bad ass took his stand for freedom 100 days ago and said vehemently to the nic bitch, �I am sick of you twisting my mind and smashing my dreams!� He became the master, with the nic bitch becoming his little puppet. Nicotine is no longer pulling the strings! He says quitting can be fun? And thankfully, for all of us at KTC, rdad graciously goes about his badass quittery while selflessly helping others! Extremely bad ass!
For the party on the Freedom Express, he will be bringing his favorite drink, Vodka and Mountain Dew. Does this sound like maybe someone has been hanging out with their 21 and 25 year old kids a bit too much??? Oh well, who can blame the guy. He�s obviously an irresponsible party animal, even though he won�t admit to it. He claims he�s never done anything crazy - We�d beg to differ though as Vodka and Mountain Dew is a pretty damn crazy concoction. Personally I�d rather drink pickled clam juice than Mountain Dew, but to each his own.
As for celebrating his 100 days at home, rdad doesn�t know what he�ll be doing but he�s sure his �wife has something up her sleeve�. Sounds kinky!! Please text us some pics or video Rdad! Anyway, this Flyfisherman/Engineer/PM Estimator drives an �03 Tahoe with over 735,000 miles on the odometer. He hadn�t figured out that Mountain Dew is sold in 2 liter bottles, so he burned a lot of time, miles, cash, and gasoline picking up single 12 oz cans of his beloved mountain dew so he could gleefully stomach his cheap vodka. Update: since he quit dipping he has finally started buying the 2 liter bottles, so he�s saving significant dollars on gas and on volume discounts for his mountain dew. Not to mention the money he's keeping in the bank from no longer shelling out hard earned bucks for cans of poison dog crap! Good move on quitting rdad!
He says he draws inspiration from everyone at KTC but Loot happens to inspire the most fear. His favorite avatars belong to Wt57 and Scowick. By the way, who the heck is that in Scowick�s avatar pic? Rdad draws strength from the posters on the intro board as well as his Iron Man text buddies. To really understand this badass� thought process as it relates to the brotherhood here at KTC, simply search youtube for his favorite quote from his favorite movie, �Patton�: "I won�t have sons of bitches who are afraid to fight stinking up this place of honor!"
Congratulations Rdad!
Niiiice! Good job Jerry.

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

Nice hundo. Welcome to the club. A place of champions!!

A certain amount of force

Daring on a different course

A certain amount of resistance
To the forces of the light and love
A certain measure of tolerance
A willingness to rise above

Celebrate the moment, as it turns into one more!!!!

Keep it rolling!!!
