I know I'm forgetting folks. n.s.sherlock was a long time but infrequent poster. Haven't seen him in a while. buster44 used to post in both places back when I switched. What's become of him?
On the coin chat I'm remembering crossover. He was still posting with you guys the last time I peeked in. And that "kid" from Vegas, coinjester? I think that was his name. Bee coins? was that one thing he collected?
If you’re serious, you should start it in a new thread. No prize? 😞 Well, that’s cool. It may dampen participation, which could be a good thing for those who are playing. If the tin hat doesn't pan out, try to think of something else.
Might be a dumb idea but I would like to issue a challenge in here, in a week to 10 days ( or maybe less if yours is done early) , We have a Best HomemadeTinfoil Hat Contest! Most Original, Most Popular or whatever,etc., etc.
Don't ask what the prizes are because I don't have any prizes!
During the Christmas holidays last year DaveyDempsey had a contest in which he posted a pic of various coins and we had to guess the total amount in £ or Euros. Winner received the coins. It was a lot of fun and our friend from Greece won them which we were happy about.
See what you started B4… lol
Gary you better research what you're taking, chantix causes some people to go psychotic.
No Chantix for me. Welbutrin, which was originally tested on schizophrenics, eliminates the physical addiction for me. I'm told it is only effective on 5% of the smokers. But it is effective on getting 60% of the schizophrnics to quit smoking, even though it didn't help their psychosis.
As long as it keeps Angry Gary from making a visit, we won't ask too many questions.X-( 😉
Yeah. Spirityoda! Don't know why i conflated him with coinjester.
I agree. I tried Chantix around three ago and it did nothing for me. A total waste.
I also went the Welbutrin route years ago. I was told it was an anti-depressant, so I guess it was for depressed psychotics? It worked great for a while, which I attributed it to being all hyped up about this miracle drug, then… the pressure at work drove me back to the cigs.
Key is timing. You need to be ready and committed. Does that sound like you?
Good luck, Mr up and coming Bear. 😛
Pack food, fishing pole, etc., NO GUNS!!! ( while you are trying to quit smoking ) take a week to however long that you can take off from work, have someone drive you to a area far far away from anywhere that you can get cigarettes and go cold turkey..
That won't work for me Smokey. I didn't start camping, hiking, climbing, fishing, canoing and all my outdoor activities until I was already a smoker. I've hiked the tallest spot in Colorodo and lit up on the top. I once paddled a canoe 20 miles (round trip) for cigarettes (well, there was beer too).
Two quits ago, I'd gone 2 months without a cigarette and I went on a fishing trip. I couldn't leave town until I'd bought a pack.
Nope, the outdoor activities will have to wait a bit and be done under supervision for the first couple of times.
