Craven and Bi-Polar Bear have inspired OCCOM BILL to finally

However:

"If you want to get it up, give it up" might work.....

Cheesehead was good.

Orchid??

Is it safe in here yet? (Looks around cautiously, quickly rattles off some answers then runs like hell)

I think that would work... and I wonder if it isn't why someone is so worked up...

My Grandmother was told by her doctor to choose between her smokes and her feet. Doc was quite serious, and she never smoked again. She taught me to say "blow it my way".

Please don't ever go there again. Please.

Absolutely... was one of the first things I noticed. When I mentioned it to my Dad he told me about a meeting of quitters at the V.A. Hospital. Apparently, a fellow about 90 years old stood up and proudly announced he had gotten wood for the first time in decades. I'm not making this up.

Do I get to stay dressed at least?


Eh, actually it works pretty good an stuff, Heh heh heh. Heh heh. Heh.

Sozobe: Cheese is a given. It looked damn good on you... and everyone else you put it on too!

Edit= Them quotes get confusing sometimes.

Oh, and thanks to whoever put me back up to 50%

Lol - orchidectomy = removal of balls.

Jeez, you NEVER let up do you Deb?

it was me who put you back over 50 percent O Bill
been watching your progress since the start now and i must say im impressed
i myself last quit smoking 7 months ago but ive given up before for 2 years once and then started again but i must say each time i restarted it got easier to quit again
i started smoking when i was 18 and im 33 now but in those 15 years i was quit for at least 5 of them
all i say is the moment you think its over and youll never smoke again the evil nicotine will jump on your back again so you can never beleive its over
and beware the six month and year relapses
most people who quit end up smoking again after 6 months or a year
anyway i feel so much better without smoking and my wallet is healthier too
i go to gym almost everyday now and my health is also a thousand times better than it was when i smoked also i feel like a great weight has been lifted off me all those years feeling not good enough unless i had a fag or a joint
it was rough man
now i have a great sense of being free from the craving and the desire its such a relief i can tell you
plus ive been thru so much suffering from smoking that i never want to go back there again
so good luck dude and im happy to hear your still nicotine free

peace and love

ps im sure youve been asked this b4 a thousand times but what does occom stand for or mean???

Well, I never toucheses 'em as I woz'nt invited to.

Nay, indeed, BEGGED to touch!

Thanks Col Man! Good luck to you as well!

Occom= the result of a dope who can't spell, referring to Occam's Razor, originally thunk up by William of Ockham.
Occom's Razor= All things being equal, the simplest solution has to be correct.

D, please avoid speaking about that Orchid stuff too.

ok thanks dude hehe well no ones perfect
and it takes a real man to admit his mistakes
hmm wise man that william of ockham

peace and love

I just woke up.

ORCHIDECTOMY? That's scary, smoking is bad.

Bill and Jer-

I hope your Kaneekies didn't suffer too much damage.

well check this topic out i posted
says king herod of the bible ( baby killing dude) died from having gangrene of the genitalia

poetic justice?

just imagine your 'orchids' turning green and dropping off

Col-

That is poetic justice. I wonder if herod smoked? It's not like it was beneath him to do thing's that would cause harm.

Posting daily gold stars for Bill, Jer, Heeven, and Smog. WTG Col Man. I didn't find it easier on subsequent attempts to quit myself (I quit a LOT of times) but then it wasn't any more difficult. I don't risk it anymore though because quitting is not the most pleasant thing any of us have had to do and I don't care to have to do it again. But as you said its a whole lot more fun being a non smoker.

Calling all newly non smokers-

How are the cravings?

Still there?

Gone?

Drinking and smoking go hand in hand, be careful if you bend the elbow.

I know alot of people that started back up because they were buzzed and thought it would be a good idea just to have one little ciggy.

Nods to all, keep it up. :-)

Cravings are nothing more than a reminder that I used to smoke... no biggie, no worries, no problems. Thanks for asking. Drinking without smokes? Don't know, still haven't tried. This has been the cleanest, most drug-free month and half of my adult life. I think I'm going to keep coffee, though. How about you other guys? Jer, you still the master?
