So it's Saturday Night

Hate to have to tell you this folks, but Atlantic salmon is superior to Pacific salmon. It comes out of much colder water, has firmer flesh, and the taste and texture is to die for. And while I'm trying to let you down gently: Ontario and Nova Scotia apples are tastier than anything grown in British Columbia. But you have to go to Ontario to get 'em, they don't get shipped west.
And canned salmon, of course, is just the floor sweepings from the fish plant compared to fresh stuff, and barely qualifies as salmon at all. The taste is recognizably there, but it's a pale and lame imitation of the flavour of the real thing.

it's quite interesting ....the whole process of nicotine detox ....(if you will)....... and is getting easier with each day. Can breath better too, :wink:
You will know when you are ready... and when the decision is made..... just go with it. Build in an incentive (continuous ) program...... and this helps. ( I count the money I did NOT spend (on smokes) and it is amazing how fast the total grows. :wink:

Congrats congrats congrats! The damn cigs are the hardest thing to quit!! I've done it a dozen times, but always go back. Quit for 18 months, one time.
There are so many reasons to quit -- beyond the obvious health stuff. It's expensive, it stinks, it limits me since I can no longer enjoy a puff after a nice dinner out, my dog hates it, my doctor nags me, and the single biggest reason I would like to quit is that I abhor being a slave to it! I do not have the freedom to not smoke without quitting entirely. I am forced to smoke every hour or less if I do not wish to experience withdrawal. That pisses me off! I hate being a slave to anything, feeling like my free will has been stolen.
Good for you, Breeze. Keep us posted on your progress. Every time I hear someone succeed it strengthens my own desire to quit.
Re: RE: So it's Saturday Night
You can save a lot by just buying an untreated cedar plank at the lumberyard, saw it into reasonable-sized pieces that fit in your barbeque, then proceed as mentioned before, soak for a couple of hours (which prevents the board from catching fire). If you buy one of those designer planks at the grocer, it'll be about five bucks... but at the lumberyard, you're looking at about 89 cents for a board that will cut into at least two barbeque-sized planks.
