Yee-haw!  We can play Dukes of Hazzard!  **Can I be Daisy Duke?**
Angie---you are so bad!!!  I bet you have pirated DVD's in your collection!
So funny---on a previous quit I ordered patches from New Zealand.  Here in the US they are sold in 21, 14 and 7 mg.--a regulatory law, I am sure, that somehow line the pockets of some politician.  Anyway, in New Zealand they are in 20, 15, 10 and 5 mg, which makes more sense to me, so I ordered them.  I had to check a box saying they were legal, which I did.  OMG---I lied---they sent the patches in several small packages labeled 'samples' and I spent months looking over my shoulder for the nicoderm police! Interpol has yet to catch my one pirated DVD, the two times I illegally ordered patches in an effort to quit smoking, or the fact that I do not own a pillow or mattress that still has that sappy label on it, either!  Your secret is safe with me!
Rev your motor for me, Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.........................

Hey grrr.  I don't think we've met yet - huge congrats. on your 10 days - that's sure something to be proud of!  I love your pic. - we decided to lift and retro an old YJ that we came across a couple of years ago.  Heck, I even learned how to weld! (I'm not good, but I learned)  We managed to get it certified to be on the road, but my 21 year old decided it's much better to drive it in the bush with the 4-wheel drive club that he joined.  I've gone on 2 of his off-road trips, and absolutely love it!  We got so muddy you couldn't even tell what colour the truck was....

Who you callin' tame?!?!?  Once I fed a wallaby.  You gotta be careful with those little guys...they have sharp teeth.  And sometimes, when I'm feeling a bit crazy, I swim in the deep end.  Yessiree!  I'm a nut like that.  And I've ripped all of those "do not remove under penalty of law" tags from my mattresses.  Don't tell MM.

I dunno, Angie---that looks like FUN to me!  The electrical socket and the knife was a bit much, but this is great!  Can I come?  Can I drive?  Add some blue lights to your car and convicted felons in the car ahead and I'm game!
