"The non smoking is going fairly well, definitely not a cold-turkey, I have had about 5 in the past two weeks. Considering I was a pack a day habit I think that is pretty good. I am still chewing but about a half can a day working my way away from that as well."

5 per day = not bad = you are almost there = thanks for serving our country = never give up = that is unless you are giving up a bad habit!

Best of luck with the insurance company, not that I would want them to play favorites, but wouldn't mind it if they treated you a little extra special
