:D :D :D :D I spent a month in the hospital, away from work, the forum and cigarettes. It was cold turkey on all three, without benefit of staff meetings, patch or internet access. The urge was unbearable and the desire greater than I ever imagined. I got home Tuesday, and can't say that I've had any real desire to go back to work and I might just retire. This is day 32 without a smoke so at least the chemical part of that habit is kicked. Quite to the contrary, my post count climbs on my return to the forum. :D :D :D

I can say from experience, its easier to quit working and tobacco than to give up this forum. ;) I know..... I really need help. :lol: :lol: :lol:

If you really want to spend less time here then use a computer with a 28.8 modem. My old traveling laptop is a fine example. Between the time you click on a post and the time you can actually read it you might fall asleep.

Doesn't most of the posting get done during work hours?

Oh, no wait... none of us would ever use our work's internet connection for non-business related use! :blueangel:
