What's the saying George, "Don't get mad, get even."? As far as being a menace when you quit smoking, you definitely are. I'm with the late President Eisenhower who replied to a reporter who asked him if he'd ever start smoking again. Old Ike replied, "I don't know if I'll start again, but I know damn well I'll never quit again."
Love,
Marcia
