Good for you Johnny. You know it only takes about 5 days or so to get all the tobacco out of your system. So by Saturday or Sunday you can consider yourself clean if you don't smoke one. Trust me it gets easier the more time that goes by. And I don't understand why you can't see a reason to quit, there are so many! You save money, you no longer have to worry about having them around you 24/7 like some kind of monkey on your back, and of course you get healthier.

I know some people say quitting only saves you a few years of life, but that's simply not true for everyone. I see people being taken out by ciggs in their 50s and 60s, and in this day that's considered young. Oh, and if you do keep going, you will start to notice the smell of ciggs on others SO much more, it is quite an eye opener. And to think that when I smoked, on my way in to work in the morning I'd smoke one cigg in the car with the windows down. I figured by the time I got to work my car and me was all aired out and nobody would ever knew I smoked. Boy was I wrong LOL!

Either way Johnny, I've always been of the notion that a person has to decide to quit on their own, so pushing or nagging anyone to quit never works. But that doesn't stop me from being encouraging however.

I can't believe this place fell to page 2 either. Maybe nobody has anything particular going on to talk about. I know I don't. Well, yesterday I called the cops cause I saw a body in my boss' old car out back at work. Turned out to be a homeless man doh! Black guy had the whitest legs I've ever seen!
