I hope that everyone who is wondering what life will be like without cigarettes reads this.

Glad he's back home! :)

Happy Birthday!

Still more changes need to be made so I temporarily took it down.

If it makes you feel good, wear it. If it's comfortable, wear it. That's why I wear 20 year old flannel shirts and socks with my flip flops. Just don't care if people are jealous of my threads. :)

Fixes have been and I'll upload the new file this evening. Thanks for testing the tickers reporting the issues and being patient. :)

Say it once, okay, perhaps, but say it again much less over and over and it's sexual harassment. There are a lot of creeps out there and for a man to "fixate" like that sends a message to lucid folks like us that his lascivious intentions could be potentially dangerous to women. Stay away from the cretin.

Probably just how we imagine it. lol

It's like a bomb ticking and you have no idea when it's set to explode. -
That was the exact reason that I started. Wanted to look tough and older than I was. Little MQ didn't realize that he was going to be smoking on/off for the following 28+ years. I knew they weren't good for me but I thought I was invincible and I guess to a point, a young punk is but when you get older everything catches up with you, especially smoking. If any lurkers are reading this, please do yourself a favor and quit now. Don't put it off because sometimes a year goes by before you actually make the commitment to quit. A lot can happen in year. Look at my ticker and all those cigarettes I would have smoked in the last year. I wonder what the tar from just 11,000 cigarettes looks like smeared all over your lungs not to mention decades worth. Quit now and let those lungs start the cleansing process. They'll reward you by giving you more oxygen than you've probably had in a long, long time. :)

There are still a few little bugs to be worked out like one date I know isn't working correctly, but it will all get fixes within the next day or two. The images will be saved as png instead of bmp too. A few little bumps but it's up and working. :)

Once people realize that quitting smoking actually makes you feel better, the more likely they would toss the smokes for good.

NOPE!

Joel's Halloween Fearfest https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=IPynhryM2RY Halloween is a holiday where people try to scare themselves. It is a perfect holiday to address irrational fears people have regarding quitting as well as the frightening realities faced by people who smoke and do not quit. For those looking for blood and guts, some of the videos linked below will meet those needs too. What is really scary is that all of the stories and pictures related in those videos are real. Scaring yourself to death is really pretty hard to do. Smoking yourself to death isn't.

This issue seems resolved. Anybody still having any problems? -
Interesting news from Big Tobacco....
MarylandQuitter replied to Nancy's topic in Quit Smoking Discussions
They still allow smoking indoors in designated areas and also employees who have their own offices can smoke in them. So, basically all they've done is stop smoking in open indoor areas. They have designated certain conference rooms etc. to smoke in. They just don't get it. Cigarette Company Finally Bans Workers From Smoking At Their Desks RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Camel cigarette maker Reynolds American Inc. is snuffing out smoking in its offices and buildings. The nation's second-biggest tobacco company informed employees Wednesday that beginning next year, the use of traditional cigarettes, cigars or pipes will no longer be permitted at employee desks or offices, conference rooms, hallways and elevators. Lighting up already is prohibited on factory floors and in cafeterias and fitness centers. The no-smoking policy will go into effect once Reynolds builds indoor smoking areas for those still wanting to light up indoors, spokesman David Howard said. "We believe it's the right thing to do and the right time to do it because updating our tobacco use policies will better accommodate both non-smokers and smokers who work in and visit our facilities," Howard said. "We're just better aligning our tobacco use policies with the realities of what you're seeing in society today." While Reynolds will no longer allow smoking, it will allow the use of smokeless tobacco products, including electronic cigarettes, moist snuff and pouches of finely milled tobacco called snus (pronounced "snoose"). The company also will allow the use of Eclipse, a cigarette made by Reynolds that uses a carbon tip that heats tobacco after being lit by a lighter. First released in the mid-1990s, Eclipse is in limited distribution and one of the top-selling brands in the cafeteria at the company's Winston-Salem, North Carolina, headquarters. The percentage of Reynolds' 5,200 employees that smoke is in line with the smoking rate in the U.S. That is about 18 percent of adults, according to the federal Centers of Disease Control and Prevention. Through its subsidiaries, Reynolds American also makes Pall Mall cigarettes, Grizzly smokeless tobacco and Vuse-branded electronic cigarettes. Altria Group Inc., the Richmond, Virginia-based owner of the nation's biggest cigarette maker, Philip Morris USA, doesn't allow smoking on factory floors and in places like elevators or hallways, said spokesman David Sylvia. Employees with separate offices can smoke in them, but otherwise the company has designated smoking areas in office buildings, conference areas and cafeterias, he said. ___ Michael Felberbaum can be reached at http://www.twitter.com/MLFelberbaum. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/22/camel-smoking-ban_n_6030786.html -
