Apparently I can't do the roll call yet because as of right now I'm still possibly using the gum.
Hello sir. Thank you for your service to this great country.
I need you to stop for a minute and think through something.... As a cop I'm sure you've dealt with some bad drunks. When they dry out, does the treatment center say "hey drunk, drop the vodka and start drinking beer - it will make you quit!" Do heroin addicts switch to cocsine to quit? OxyContin to Xanax?
This all sounds fucking crazy doesn't it? You know why? Because tobacco companies are driving the patch/lozenge/e cig biz. Substituting flat out does not work. I'm on day 901 following the Ktc plan. The first days and weeks were really tough. I earned that. And so did you. Quit like a bad ass man, like the bad ass you are. Post roll and tell you wife that this is for real - that this is the time. Show her your post while you are laying there in silence. You'll likely have bad ass tears running down your face. Tears of joy my friend.
I know you can do this. If I can, a bad ass like you can. Post roll. Join this community. No one ever regrets quitting. There is only one way to quit. QUIT.
