chemical free - first time in decades

[Berzerker]

I quit smoking almost 2 years ago, quit the booze last month, quit the nasal spray maybe 10 days ago (and I used that stuff for decades), and quit the herb 2 weeks ago, although I might smoke it again in the future...

Stopped soda last year and stopped diet soda recently (basically when I quit the booze).

The only thing I'm using now are eye drops for suspected glaucoma in one eye (the other might have it but no signs of damage to the optic nerve yet).


Lifestyle changes become easier when you hit your 50s and you start seeing evidence of mortality...

and now I can get back to walking golf courses

we might hit 70 a week from today

Don't you have more dreams when you're straight? Maybe it's just easier to remember them, but I don't think so.

[Ben Kenobi]

How are you doing Berz? Haven't heard much from you lately.

[Docfeelgood]

now your going to age

[Berzerker]

dont know about dreams, only used that chantix stuff for 3-4 weeks and I hear it produces some weird dreams

Howdy Ben, I'd say the same about you - how you liking San Antonio?

geez, weather said possible 70 next thursday and thats already been downgraded to low 60s

[ColdWizard]

More evidence that getting old sucks

[MRT144]

Good stuff man! I've tried to cut down considerably on my drinking. Only a drink or two on the sundays, but now that football is done probably even less.

I'm glad to hear you're making positive changes, Berz.

[Asher]

Nice man

Good on you!

I've already started cutting back on stuff myself in preparation. I figure if I do stuff in moderation, I'll be OK.

[MikeH]

What about shooting yourself in the head in moderation? Jumping off high buildings in moderation? Trying to headbutt a moving bus in moderation?

[MOBIUS]

What's the moderation bit?

Shoot myself in the head with a water pistol; jump off high buildings with a parachute; trying to headbutt a very slowly moving bus with a giant padded helmet...?

[Jon Miller]

Religion in moderation?

[MOBIUS]

Of course, that's why although I'm about 99% atheist, there's still a glimmer of agnosticism in me. Plus, as a subject, I am always interested in the history of religion. When on holiday, I always make a bee-line for whatever impressive religious pile is in the area...

Religion makes life interesting.
