If your gonna be dumb you gotta be tough

Reaper - We head over to Sieper Louisiana to pick up our next quitter, Reaper. This married UAV pilot dude with 2 kids started dipping when he was 18. I did the math and I think that means he dipped somewhere in the 19 year range. His dip of choice was Copenhagen WG Long Cut (saw me a can of that on the side of the road the other day, was even in date). In the true Cajun spirit, he is bringing beer and fried up alligator parts on the train with him. He says to contact Punkin if anything happens. Ok so he wouldnÂ’t have put these little diddies in here if he didnÂ’t think they were safe to mention, so here goesÂ… He is going to drive buck naked on a 4 wheeler in the woods to celebrate his 100 days. I mean talkin bout goinÂ’ ballistic, that couldnÂ’t be crazier than the sex on the roof of the McDÂ’s in Japan with the Japanese chick during the fireworks extravaganza for New YearsÂ….Close thoughÂ…(Pics or weÂ’re callinÂ’ BS!!)

Reaper’s wisdom is to the point: “ODAAT and use this site.. it helps to have these guys to talk to during hard times.” He feels Punkin helped him the most during their marathon texting sessions, but he also felt that Punkin was one of the scariest quitters out here among good company with Evil_Won and Sportster4ever… His favorite avatars are everything of a bouncy, mammary nature, and he will definitely be back to observe them everyday for the next 100 days! We welcome you Reaper onto the train of all trains today!!! The Killa Express rolls on down the rail to upper stratosphere to pick up our next quitter tomorrow in Motown!!!

thank you all for the encouragement. I agree we can have 100 days quit and one had decision will throw all that down the crapper. ODAAT is the best motto a quitter can ever have. we own today cause who knows what tomorrow holds so in this war of us vs nic bitch we fight ODAAT as if it is our last. proud to fight along side all of you brave and noble quitters.
Keep on keepin on Reaper. Sounds like you've got a good thing going. Remember dip doesn't solve problems: 1 problem + a dip = 2 problems. That's about all the math I can do, but it makes sense to me. ODAAT, quit with you today brother.
"I am a nicotine addict and there is nothing I can do about it; I am also a quitter, and that, I can do plenty about." - Grizzly25

Today I choose to quit because today is the only day I have control over today. Tomorrow is a new day and when tomorrow is today, I'll control it too, but not until then. I will win this fight with today...

days 22-80 I havent been as active on the site as I should have been.  but I will tell you this these were some of the most trying days of my life.  between loosing friends and going to funerals and the constant stress and amount of training the job has put on me I have barely had any time for myself but one thing remained constant and that was no matter how bad it got I was not going to let my fellow killers down and cave in.  These were by far the hardest times but you all kept me going by simple text of encouragement and posting roll everyday helped keep me reminded of my pledge to you all and myself.  That fog and dreams wasnt no punk that shit was thick son I didnt really know what yall were talking about at first but now I do.  thank you all for the support and congratulations to all on your HOF. 20 more days and ill be there to.
Hof will be an accomplishment my friend, but it sounds to me like 80 is a real good number also. It sounds like you've been through a lot and have come through. That's 80 of days pure quit. I'll take that 80 any day that ends with a y. Great job.
Being quit today is the accomplishment! ODAAT!! You have done that 80 days in a row. That is great bro!

Remember that it don't matter if you are 1, 10, 80, 100, or 1000 days quit --- you still got to own today! We are all a bad decision today from flushing our good battle down the crapper.

Celebrate the milestones because it shows you what you have accomplished. But in the end, it is all about being quit TODAY. I am quit with you all day long.
Quit date: 6/23/2013

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.

day 21 done. it has been both good and bad since my last post. my mind has been cleared without the nic bitch ruling it but with that has come alot more of stress thrown at me.. but I remain vigilant in my quest for the ultimate freedom and I thank you all for standing by my side when I needed you all. it is amazing how when you quit how the slightest things you notice. like seeing someone with a fat lip spitting on the ground in public or the smell of someone after they smoked a cigarette how it makes you feel disgusted and all the while your doing the ding dong the bitch is dead dance.
Proud to be quitting with you Bro. Keep on keepin on

Day 14

Yesterday I had to repair my porch the steps decided that they wanted to fall through.  Normally I would throw a dip in and rage about how am I a gonna get this fixed but this time was way different.  this time I drove the 40 miles to the closest Lowes got some supplies and went to work.  Now lets get something straight I am a UAV Pilot for the Army and I am not a carpenter at all but what happened next was awesome.

I got back with all the supplies and got my tools and went to work before I knew it I had rebuilt a whole new set of stairs hand rails and added unique touches to it all that I didn't know I could do.  All of this was done NIC FREE and I had a lot clearer mind set and I was so busy I didn't have time to crave a dip.  Hell I didn't even get frustrated when something didn't look right I just stepped back thought for a second and tried something else until it worked out. 

I can feel the clearer thoughts that I haven't felt in years.  My mind is not clouded because of if I get frustrated I would do what it took to find a dip and felt that it would make it all better but in reality I am thinking and acting a lot better without it.  The first half of my life was nicotine driven and now I am planning on living the rest NIC Free.  No screw that not planning I am going to live the rest of my life NIC Free. 

Its a awesome feeling being free of that Bitch and able to think for myself for the first time in 17 years with out the aid of nicotine.
great post Reaper.. and congrats on getting a little taste of freedom. It still gets so much better.
Reaper,
I build for a living and the fear of not being able to perform without dip was huge. For the first two weeks i felt like i was moving in slow mode and not hitting my targets for the day. Looking back i think i was running around in a manic state but my head was still in time warp. Life continues to become clearer each day, now 4 weeks in. Im glad you are feeling it too. Going through the day without having to reach for the tin everytime a challange pops up is freedom.
Keep quit,
Grizzfall
This little thread just made my night. Thank you gentlemen. I love a casual reminder of what freedom means. It is great to watch you guys win. Quit on.

"CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit. After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco."
