Golferman: - BIG Congratulations to you on 1 year quit!!!! [i] "I strip away their facades and lay things on the line to them. Too many quitters love to surround themselves with convenient excuses that are ready and waiting for them when that slip or a relapse happens. I don�t want to hear it. Smoking is an addiction and the ONLY way to break an addiction is to be 100% honest with it. [/i]" This is perfect, Joe. Thanks for the honesty that goes along with your support to all. You're a knowledgeable, caring person. Hope you stick around here for a long time.

Joe, First congratulations on your 1 year anniversary. What an accomplishment and it's all yours. Next don't ever stop rambling, you have just got started, and as others have said there would be a lot of bumping going on... And I agree... Celebrate my friend, and enjoy the day to the fullest.

Joe Your post is wonderful. I really have been inspired and found immense knowledge in your posts. I as so many others use and refer to your posts, they have been instrumental in my quit.

Congratulations, Joe. I've appreciated your rambles in the past and this one marks a great milestone for you. I hope you enjoy it thoroughly. Glad to have you around. Thanks, Joe. Life or death, live or die. There is only do, there is no try. Choice puts the free in freedom. No hurries, no worries.

Hey Golferman, I'm a newbee here but are familiar with your words of quitting wisdom. One year must fit nice on you! Congratulations! I hope and pray that I also will be able to look in that same magic mirror one day to see the same freedom fit. Some days I look forward to the adventure and others I just want to hide. I hope you meant that you will not be posting about a certain subject but that you will continue to post in general. See you in S. Africa in 2007 as non-smokers?
