Keith,
   Congrats, and give yourself a hell of a pat on the back. Half the folks I 
know quit a dozen times a day, and most who get serious don't last 200 minutes 
much less 200 hours or 200 days.   Six months plus is a big accomplishment and  
by now  you're  not even thingking of backslidin' .  If you do, just  light up 
the welder, and while stitching a couple pieces of galvanized steel together, 
suck in all the fumes you can  as a reminder of how good smoking made you 
feel...  

   My wife asked me to quit while I was at the end of my navy career during 
gulf war 1 (while removing and disposing of live mines from the Kuwait  side of 
Buyiban....)   I  told her I'd already quit  -  and the one I had just put out 
during our batphone conversation was truly my very last  so as not to have 
actually  lied to her...    haven't smoked since.   But I do occassionally  
dream that I've backslid, and can actually smell and taste the smoke.  

 No plans for BVille this year, but I did win a hotrodders hat trick:  My 
company is footing the bill for me to attend the  SEMA and NACE expos first 
week in November in Vegas.    I took 3 days vacation  for the NHRA AC Delco 
nats.  To top it off, my wife bought me the 4 day  Platinum/Hospitality pass 
package for an early/only  Christmas present.
