Good on you RLY for not caving! My entire family bar myself, my sister and 1 cousin all smoke (on both sides of the family too). I've seen many times over the years how hard it is to quit, so mad props to you sir.

I grilled today for the first time since quitting. It was an empty, soulless experience. Grilling with no smoking is just wrong.

Try drinking beer while grilling instead.

And so the First denied their Mother,
in their fury, and so were cast out,
doomed children of Mother Dark.

'mander, that's just creating temptation

anyway, grill = beer regardless...

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

I like the iron will approach.

Mucho cooler than using sissy patches.

Makes it a man-test not to smoke.

I thought you were quitting?

Also, dip makes me puke. That is all.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Dipping is great, but gross to everyone around you. I guess smoking is too for that matter. I would like a dip and a smoke rightn ow. Mmmmm. Nicotine poisoning.

What is a 'dip'? I've never heard of it before.

Smokeless tobacco, is I think what it's called. Comes in a plastic tin. Looks like snuff.

Chewing tobacco comes in a bag and you put it in the side of your mouth and chew on it.

Dip comes in a tin and you put a pinch between your gums and cheek/lip.

Yeah, chewing is kind of big and stringy.

Dip is a lot finer.

Kind of like the inside of a cig, but moist.

It gave me such a strong buzz I threw my guts up, so I would say it's stronger, so that could be because it's finer.

Sounds gross. Then again, I think tobacco and cigarettes are nasty so I stay away from both. Cigarettes are more disgusting than the chewing stuff, though, I'll grant that.
