You have company Eric, I have tried and failed to quit smoking more times than I can count (cant get past 20).
I've tried patches, nicotine gum, hard candy, morphine
even got hypnotised once( I still smoke but now every time I hear a phone ring,I cluck like a chicken).Even attended
a 6 hour company paid for how to quit smoking seminar.

So now tommorrow I'm going cold turkey, I figure the 3 day
weekend here. Will at least be a help in not haveing to deal with work stress.Theres no beer in the house and I dont plan to get any.(I know 4th of July weekend and no beer
shameful, but I think the founding fathers will forgive me).
I've notified the Mrs to keep off my back about the long neglected hunny do list. And I have no plans to drive a cage in the holiday traffic.

Tell ya what Eric, lets make a bet, first one of us to give in, has to wear a pink t-shirt with "I love fags" printed on it. Nah bad Idea sorry mate. And good luck.

btw the morphine line was a joke.
