I'm already drinking.
No you need to do this at the start of Lent, the day after Mardi Gras. Mardi Gras - 2/12/13 Lent - 2/13/12 |

This would be tough. I mean I don't consider myself an Alcoholic, but boy, to go 90 days without a beer or whiskey.
Wishing you all luck...I am out. |

Ummmm, yeah, no!
I'm sure until Obamacare and unemployment covers me I'm going to drink (heavily)!

a few years ago when I did this, the first weekend was the most difficult it seemed; and the occasional"had a horrible day at work; I could use a beer" was hard.
I usually drink beer while playing video games, so that association will be difficult to break. I might use any money saved to maybe start building a game rig that will be used for Flight Simulator only.

I think so too. or, at least I hope it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. In my limited research, it looks like the ideal speed would be about3.6Mhz, and 4GB+ of RAM.
of course, I don't know jack when it comes to that level of computer detail. I just want something that is dedicated to FSX, that won't lock up, or be jerky etc. I'm also going to get it set up using the plans on here possibly: http://www.rogerdodger.net/diyflightsims.html

Just in the last couple of years have I started drinking. And lately it's been heavy. I joined this 1 day late, but I'm in. We'll see if I can make it. LOL
Good mental exercise here. |

nice!
I went to a mexican restaurant last night and refrained from the large Dos Equis Amber they had on draw; 24oz for $4. and a few nights this week I REALLY wanted a beer after some rough days at work. I had been drinking a ton during football season; a TON. but, I already feel a little better. Last time I did it, the first week was a bitch, but got progressively better after I started dis-associating my recreation (video games, movies, guitar etc) activities with having a beer.

I think in 2011 when I went nearly 7 months without a drink. I felt great - both physically and mentally.
Keep it up, Dayze. I will be doing the same thing at the end of March. |
