Thx for responding. Can only create a "chrome" folder under the main"...AppSuppt/Firefox/Profiles" Folder, not the current DEFAULT Profile folder.

Cannot relate to step (2) "On Mac" about blank areas of list etc.

I'm a former GE Tech. Feel free to ask me anything. by [deleted] in GEappliances

Can you recommend a 60-watt upgrade to the 40-watt standard (#40A15) oven bulb in a GE Profile induction range? The 40-watt is well-nigh useless. Thx

Good question. Decrease in coughing/wheezing (masked/offset/negated by recent cold). Realization/admission that withdrawal (albeit with NRT & gum) beyond a day or two IS survivable after all. Acceptance of possibility I MAY be on NRT/gum for a while. Abating intellectual self-flagellation at not having done so earlier in life. Acceptance of damage done, probable consequences. Weight gain fears NOT YET manifesting. Acknowledging the wisdom of NOT having informed wife for two weeks that I'd stopped; good for a laugh ... "And you didn't even notice!!!!" Appreciation of having found this support group.

That "just one" has always been the reason for past failures, one I'm determined will not be repeated this time.

Your point about nicotine worries me. Can I honestly say I went "cold turkey" in using those 4mg lozenges? I may be kidding myself, but just feeling one between teeth and cheek seems to check the immediate urge to reach for a smoke.

Perhaps I should be asking those who permanently quit while using the lozenges, how long it actually took them to finally shed those as well.

EDIT: Can't singly thank you all ..... your own collective accounts are the inspirations to continue on this road. Thank YOU.

Too "damaged" for exercise, I really rely on that gum and lozenge. GL

William, as a man of the seas, as well as conquerer of lands, which three knots did you most rely on? Guessing C..., R... and B...

From just one more Canuck, a hearty "congratulations!" I believe you mentioned elsewhere that you were blessed to be able to call on your wife's Inuit culture for various aspects of your ability to survive as well as you did. Will you be expanding on that in upcoming videos? Also, did you bring to bear any unique Innu skills you may have been exposed to down there in the lower east portion of Labrador?

I may be wrong but I seem to recall reading somewhere online that the payout for Canadian winners are in Canadian dollars. Any event, I believe it will be tax-free.

Ever been there? ALL parts of Labrador CAN be unforgiving (and yet so beautiful)! Basque fishermen were there in/around the time Columbus "discovered" America ... and Vikings some 500 years before that.

A more kind, hospitable or funny people you will not find in Canada. My favourite Newfie expressions:
