				Started Day 18
			 
			
			
			Awoke to a full moon, cool and started day 18 of no cigarettes.....just simple cold turkey. 60 years of them and no cravings....had cut back to 5 a day and just said O.K. let's go for none.....really, hasn't been difficult. Had routine physical Tuesday, every thing good...BP was 117/75....I don't ever remember it that low!

				Good for you
			 
			
			
			Many of us have smoked in the past.  You will feel much better and have more money for guns and ammo.  Keep it up.  All the best...

			Congrats to you Dan. I know from others that kicking the habit can be tough. My brother smoked for 20 years, and then quit before his son was born.

			Dan, 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			This site, like Napolean's Grand Armee, also had an "Old Guard." I agree, it is good to see Fabs and others back here keeping the site operational. Adam
