Quit for Dean

[Hep]

A friend of mine is in the opening stages of organizing a "Quit Smoking For Dean" group that will donate money saved from quitting to the campaign. I will be participating. If anyone is interested, even a little, feel free to email or PM me. This is in the early stages of development, but we're hoping to raise some serious cash with this.

1. Good Luck!

I wish I could muster the "want to".

2. wouldn't that

hurt N.C.?

5. Quitting smoking?

It wouldn't hurt NC very much. But I don't smoke to help my state's economy, and the price NC will have to pay for my health care since I'm a state employee, well, you can do the math!

I do smoke Camels though, out of state pride.

3. I quit last week

Unfortunately I spend more on nicotine lozenges than I did on cigarettes. It's still a great idea, keep us informed.

4. Why stop there?

Just think of the possibilities. You could try to organise "Ex-Junkies For Dean", "Recovering Alcoholics For Dean"...lots of more costly vices than smoking out there. This country's chock-full of addicts. How about "Give Up Caffiene For Dean"? That's even got a catchy rhyme.

EDIT: the above is just me being silly (so don't take offence). Seems like a good way to come up with money you might not otherwise be able to afford to support your candidate...and good luck with the quitting.

6. Thanks!

I hope it sticks. I've never gone longer than 6 months.

7. No COFFEE???!!!

We'll never get anyone elected without coffee or caffiene...me thinks I smell a republican shadow plan...all the Dems will sleep more if they quit drinking coffee/cola....

HA!

10. Never get a persons name

EVER!

[jonnyblitz]

11. Exactly. Especially a politician!!

I know guys who get their childrens names tattooed by never their wives. Of course you can do a coverup tattoo but that is a pain in the ass...

But I agree with you 100%. :hi:

12. The one thing I WON'T do for Dean

I won't/can't quit smoking.
Otherwise, I am for Dean all the way!
