Ridge Runner down but not out

[RidgeRunner]

Thanks for ALL the words of wisdom and support. Still doing good. Ready to go but doctor said wait til next week. Aye Aye Captain.

BTW- Anyone have a remedy to get the stinking smell of cigarettes out of a vehicle? Aside from dynamite?

I used some Mequiars upholstery fabric spray from o'reillys. I told mom no more smoking in my truck and car a few months ago and this stuff got rid of the smell. In my truck I was about to gut the interior and start over thats how bad it was. You can also get fish that hang off the rearview that make it smell better.

Most any dealership or large detail places have or have somebody who comes around with an ozonator machine. It works surprisingly well at getting rid of cigaret smell inside a vehicle. When I worked at a dealership they would come by and use them on used cars, and most of them you couldn't tell that somebody had smoked in, and these were cars of chain smokers.

Man glad you made it through it bro!!!! Ive been trying to tell my dad this for years and he aint listening. Its not totally his fault, the man sleepeats. Thats right, sleepeats.....He'll sleepwalk to the fridge and down a gallon of milk, put the cap back on, stick it in the fridge and go back upstairs.

On a sidenote, FreshWave crystals do a great job of pullin smells out. It will clean a house of burnt popcorn in an hour or two. If you have an ACE Hardware close by, its SKU# 1370626. (Support local business, not box stores)

Also what do Marlboros taste like???? Im guessin the same way the smell??? Thats a lot of ciggies to eat!!!!

Quitting the cigarettes will make a huge difference in your health.They damage the human body in so many different ways,not just the heart & lungs.Next month I'll have 9 years under my belt since I gave them up.Keeping the weight off has been the hardest problem, Food started tasting good again!but at least 1/2 hour of exercise each days really helps.

Ozone, a friend used to do reclaimation work after fires and floods. Forgot about that.. Your a genious Ferm. Fabreeze has taken away 90% of the smell. And GarageNC, no way to repeat the deal I got on this truck, she is a keeper.
Thanks again for all the replies and well wishes. Definitely feel fortunate to have a second chance. Crazy to repeat the cycle of destructive behavior in retrospect. I guess we all have our vice. Not too smart either..and you can't fix stupid. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want a cig. E-cig is carrying me through for the moment. Thanks again..
