OK. I'm left with #3 you haven't fostered over 50 Golden Retrievers. (but would !)

eighty sixed...banned or thrown out of an establishment (club, bar, etc) I had to eighty six him, he was causing a disturbance !

My Smut Sister, @Doreensfree, has been oddly quiet about this, hasn't she just ! I was only there by accident, of course.

I chose #2, lost but, learned a juicy tidbit from @Boo and the winner is: lol, I haven't been refereeing in Games since @bakon needed that 'help' in sticks & chicks.

Where y'at, Steveo ? Why are you still smoking ? As our wise friend, @Sirius, wrote, 'Next time a craving plunks down on your face ask yourself, "What price you are willing to pay to own yourself?" Smoking steals your money, your health and your self-respect. I hope you make a better choice, why not today ? We are here to help.

Thanks, Jillar, sorry, @reciprocity, my hero Porcini.

9 hi ms D

Congratulations, Jack on your Two Years of Freedom. You are smart...complacency kills the quit. I am so glad you checked in. Successful quits feed my soul, for true. @reciprocity will get you in his data base and we will be sure to celebrate with you next year too !

OK, sugar. Remember to also take care of Yourself ! You are looking out for everybody and that is great, it shows what kind of person you are but, don't forget to throw some of that nurturing your way. Everybody will work out their schedule. You think about healing. I send all love and light to you and your troops. Thank you for sharing this journey with us and check in when you are able. We are behind you all the way too. S

well, I guess # 2 could have been me ? and my smut sister @Doreensfree ? I guess the guy with the newspaper could be @Boo , in that case, but, it could be Porcini or ? Do we have a lie this time ? I'll take what's behind door #2

It is a big rush to celebrate with Linda, isn't it ! I also get a charge out of the NOPE thread, it is like holding hands around the world and strengthening our quits. Thanks for sharing your positivity and building a beautiful quit, QueenB. Glad you are here.

Congratulations on your quit and welcome to QTrain ! Please avail yourself to all the information, the support and the fun as well. The games are here for diversion and also to get to know and laugh with fellow quitters. You might like to start a blog to chart your journey to a nicotine free life. In looking at your avatar...OLD HABITS/NEW HABITS ...I saw an immediate RED FLAG. I hope you understand this is way more than a habit, we are dealing with Nicotine Addiction. Educate yourself about Addiction, this is one of the premier motivators. With education and understanding the knowledge you will have a great chance of building a successful quit.

Chicken Scratch....a guitar lick made famous by Jimmy Nolen who went on to play in James Brown's band. You hear a lot of chicken scratch in 'Papa's Got A Brand New Bag' One of Nolen's first examples are on this J. Otis record. You will recognize the 'chicken scratch' once you hear it.

Dear darling Linda, You have become a huge part of this board while you have been on your nicotine free journey. On every step of the way, you have shown your determination to quit and your care of others. I know it hasn't been an easy year for you. Life has given you some real struggles and sorrows but, you have persevered and come out the other side a very powerful woman. This metamorphosis has been extraordinary to witness... here are some excerpts from your introductory thread, posted August 1, 2018: "...I have been experiencing so much depression and feelings of helplessness lately and a big part of that is the fear of what smoking is doing to me. I have been ashamed of my addiction for a long time and just want to stay home to smoke. I have lost all motivation in so many things that I enjoy. Sometimes I feel like I would just like to give up. I don't feel I can share these feeling with anyone close to me. Today is a new day and I am starting it with the challenge of not having that morning smoke. That is a tough one. I will lean on you all and pray that this time I can have some success! " Well, you have built a most sturdy and successful quit, indeed ! Thank you for not giving up on yourself ! We love you so much and are so very happy to celebrate your first year with you. Thank you for sharing your support, your love, your humor and your quit with us, thank you very, very much. Others have used the metaphor of a chrysalis in this celebratory thread, it is completely apropos. Oh, hope you celebrate wildly ! We are all here with bells on ! NOPE-ly yours and with all love, your friend, S

Zoot Suit,

I think #1 is the lie. I don't believe you hand fed a wild moose. funny, Jillar and I were quick on the draw. OK, I'll take #3. You didn't surf in Malibu

I found a dancer but, I'm keeping him under wraps till midnight just to make sure he can shake it, not break it.
