Hey Rich,
Good to see you here! Glad that you're doing so well. Next July 23 at 6:26 PM Eastern time I will begin my 8th year smoke free. When I recall the year we quit and the struggles of all our buddies in the group I really appreciate the bond and camaraderie we all shared. As we used to say, "Keep on keepin' on"!

Good Morning (7:47 am here in east coast us at least). Are you native Filipino or a transplant? Someone my dad knows a man who just a had a baby with a young Filipino woman.
Funny story: he is in his 60's, she is her 20's .. he met her online and has been there to visit her a few times. She just had the baby last week and he is planning on retiring there in a few years.
I know you have a real hurting economy in some parts of the country. He is middle class here but said he will be extremely rich in the Phillipines.
Funny story this guy and his much younger online baby mamma. He is an odd duck. You guys can keep him! LOL
Have a pleasant smoke free day. Keep in touch.

Both my parents are Filipino and I was born here in the Philippines. You are absolutely right, we are a third world country and poverty is a problem. Indeed funny that I am wasting a lot of money in cigarettes despite financial difficulties. Maybe this is a good motivation to stop :)
