Message 774900 - Posted: 28 Jun 2008, 20:39:12 UTC - in response to Message 774894.  

Decided to buy myself a present, partially paid for with the proceeds of not smoking.....I am sure I've kept at least $100.00 in my pocket since quitting....

Gonna try to pick out a new digital camera this weekend.....

Maybe some new kitty pics on the way!!!

Ooooo!!! Good choice! Or wait for a couple more weeks & buy a really sweet one! Let us know what you got, & what you traded it for! An added something is that you're helping our faltering economy.

What did you smoke before? I just stopped by the drive-thru the other day and Marlboro was $4.08 a pack. WOW. Am I ever glad I quit 3 years ago. *pulling up the calculator* I saved about $4380 over 3 years.

(Funny, I still feel broke)


Heh. It's the gas, Dune. We're all broke.

I figured it out and I quit 24 years ago. Yes, I'm as old as dirt. Maybe the fact that I scared the crap out of myself at a relatively young age is why I'm still here.

Hang in there, Mark. Maybe then we'll all be here bitching about the price of new fuel cells in 10-15 years.

Who the heck has the dilithium crystal market rigged anyway????
I used to get my street racer recharged for 20 or 30 credits......now it costs 60.....dang Martians.......
Ever since their dilithium fields started to yield 60% purity, they think they own us all........we need to start drilling on the moon right now......


It's too damn hot to go drilling today.

I added some extra coolant to my Oster intermix chamber. A new batch of fuel is forthcoming....

Keep it up!

We need to drill here and NOW....NOW...NOW........good luck with the Oster..........LOL......

Best thing there is to crush it up and bury it somewhere deep in the back yard!


Good exercise!

Good luck,

It's yourself on that one.

You should have even a modicum of a sense of smell now to notice the extra stinky smell from them things...


Go for it still,

Cheers,
Martin

Oh, cummon Mark, put them away. When I gave up smoking for the 3 years I had an almost full pack of Marlboro in my desk drawer right here where I sit. It's mind over matter and what matters is that you can do it! Leave them alone!
