8) Congrats all of you. I quit about 20 years ago. Price was an outrageous $5 a carton. Hardest thing I have ever done and finally just quit buying them. Not addicted to buying them. :thumbsup:

I've been working on getting the boyfriend to quit the dip (barf...gross....blecch)....I got him the commit lozenges, which seem to work pretty well. He's been off the tobacco since new years, but I don't know how he's gonna quit the lozenges now.

Thanks,
I haven't noticed, but the wife has said my fuse got a little shorter. :x I just decided to quit one day, and did. Of course, I had previously wiened my self down to only smoking at work, so it wasn't too hard. :R
Somebodys, not to mention names,Kerry, Glenn was 'pose to harass me every day and make sure I didn't slip, but that only lasted for a couple of days. :lol:

Yeah, and another perk is that now I get to gripe about the smokers ''standing around outside and doing nothing" :lol:

That's the part I always missed, so when I was strong enough to be around the cigs without craving them, I'd go out for a "fresh air break" and catch up with all the smokers.

So, arggg we a pirate ship now? Or do regular ship have parrots too? :lol:


Well, Hmmm no Pirate ship... :thinking: I remember our ship had a stolaway cat once till our Captain told the crew that it must be released at next port, besides I smell dat cat in some sailors quarters.. :oops:

We kept him in the Crew Lounge or Game room..for weeks.. :lol:

As some say, A Parrot can be good luck onboard ship, cant figure it out though as to how but so the legends say.

Capn ;)


No pirate ship... but what do I do with my lace shirt.. and these earrings?

and my cool hat? does that mean no pilaging either :cry:

Great job Johnny :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

and congrats to the rest of you that have been able to do it.. :thumbsup:

Johnny sorry for not keeping up the harassment.. which sounds like a better excuse?

We thought you had failed.. and did not want to make you feel bad... or go postal.. or we knew you were doing such a good job.. that we did not need to harass you?? :roll:
