But I was able to call it quits cold turkey and never missed drinking..Didn't go to AA or any other drug alcohol rehab..Just 14 hours in the graybar hotel is what cured me.
Wish I could do that with cigarettes!!

#1) I have just been incentivesized (I do not know if that is a word but it is today)…I do enjoy smoking but yesterday I bought a pack of smokes for $5.35 and today I bought a pack of smokes for $6.75 at the same store. As I said even though I enjoy smoking I think this is the incentive that I need to stop.
#2) Dennis...14 Hours...GAY BAR???
Yeah, that's what I said.....MANY TIMES.....Smokes are now over $10/pack here. Maybe when they hit $11 I'll quit

The thing I hate is leaving work on the weekends. I close every Fri and Sat nite, so I'm coming home at midnight.
I don't know HOW MANY TIMES I had to drive home dodging Drunk Fuks!!!

I assume your insurance is paying for it....Then for sure take it to the dealer as they will know your rig the best!!

My dad quit when they got to 32 cents/pack, I quit when it got to $3.20/pack. Both of us finsihed the pack we were on and haven't been in the mood to buy one since. They key is to change your lingo. "Quitters never win, and winners never quit." This has you programmed to believe that "quitting"= failure, and nobody wants to be a failure. So from the word you are setting yourself up for failure. What you need to do is start saying that you are going to "stop" smoking. Stopping carries no social repercussions with it. Also, like recovering alcoholics who spend the rest of thier life one drink from starting again, smokers are the same way. I know after I choke down one ciggarette my body and mind will remember the addiction and I'll be back to buying them. I know this because after a night out at the clubs and bars where smoking is allowed, I have very controllable cravings for a drag.
It's not an easy habbit to drop, but it is well worth it, and throught the whole fight you cant give up. When temptation gets too strong and you give in, you need to be hard on yourself for giving in, but keep trying until you succeed no matter how many attempts you make or how long it takes. A good support group of recovering smokers is a major help too.
As for the DUI, I believe the first offnese should be loss of license for life and monster fines. I am a firm believer in giving people choices, but having serious consequenses for making poor choices. If people think about how they will live thier life riding busses and bumming rides after the loss of thier license and the impact on thier life from that they may reconsider their actions. The fore fathers had a great idea with the whole "No cuel and unusual punishment," thing, but our judicial punishments are too soft and the police are too leniant on stuff to make getting busted a concernable threat worth considering by many people
