About 3 weeks ago, I PM'd Curtis about stumbling onto this thread http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=42090&highlight=dipping and how it made me think about how shelfish I was being since I chewed tobacco pretty much all day everyday for almost 15 years. Everyone's comments in the thread made me think of my wife and daughter and the rest of my family and friends. I quit chewing the day I read it! Curtis was kind enough to send me PM's every few days just to check in and see how I was handling the withdrawls from nicotine.
Long story short, I told him I was doing well, but my tongue hurt from the salt from all the sunflower seeds I was chewing now. He told me about a company that made less salty seeds, and asked for my email to send me something. The next day I got an email from this seed company saying that Curtis had sent me a gift certificate to get some seeds. I just recieved a case of seeds yesterday and they are great!
I've told him already, but I wanted to thank Curtis again and all of you that responded to his original thread for helping me end my addiction. I haven't had one chew since I quit and I actually do feel better physically!
Now, who knows how to curb an addiction to sunflower seeds:D
