    Keep up the good work man, that's a tough beast for some to overcome. Family, friends and turnin wrenches is definitely a good way to keep busy.

    Congrats man, small steps lead to giant leaps!

    W3rd. After this week, work should slow down a bit and I'll be able to make more time to stop by. Until then you are in my thoughts my slightly whiter brotha.

    Congratulations man. My dad and my sister are recovering. Dad's been sober since '88 or so and my sister since '07. Both say not a day goes by where it isn't tough. But with the right support system anything is possible. Even 20+ years sober my dad sometimes removes himself from social situations because he feels uncomfortable. Keeping yourself out of tempting situations is key.

    When I stopped smoking weed, I had to completely change my friend base. It was tough, especially since I lived on campus with all of them and saw them EVERY day, but I'm glad I did it now.

    Congrats scotsman! I'm proud of ya.

    Same here, after I got arrested I never smoked again and stopped chilling with all the people that I used to smoke with.
