I'm trying to get my books ready for the accountant so I'm housebound and bored... some weed would be nice

Be carfull Flux. Brian Pollard and the powers that be now wreckon it makes you happy and scytso so enjoy with a friend,or maby not babe, take account of the situation especialy with the paperwork coming up

Perhaps they've especially timed the airing of Celebrity BB to coincide with the ending of the tax year? Because watching it is perhaps just a little bit more interesting than doing spreadsheets

I got a different one, this one was inspired while watching drivers on the highway:

If you pick your nose,
Do you roll it up so small,
Into a tiny little ball,
To flick at your passenger?
Or put it in your mouth,
And savour in delight,
At your body's own goodness?

Or maby they are training so that one of them can be crazy enough to be the next PM or chanceller of the ex chequer in fluxes case. So that you can get the entire population to pay house tax, and use there funds to pay your own. Give me the job not.

Rhinotillexomania - scientific term for nose picking.

I am VERY bored...

Whats the best way to quit smoking (if you are bored Flux).

You are a wealth of knowledge, I've not smoked for 5 days and it seems to get worse each day. Any ideas?

Avoid stress of all kinds. Quit booze and other soft drugs too. Every time you get the urge to smoke have sex instead. Or take photos.

Nicorette, my friend, Nicorette. Candy-coated mint nicotine rush goodness. Better then cigarettes, honest!

At first it tastes like you're chewing on a peppercorn but you get used to it, and it doesn't taste any worse then an actual cigarette.

You've got to be real too. For about four months you'll have to avoid getting completely tanked. And give yourself ever-increasing rewards for staying smoke-free, ex. after 4 days, a week, a month, at 4 months. That's really important, it keeps you motivated and pleased with yourself.

Don't slip and have a cig but if you do think about what happened and avoid doing it again and make SURE you don't think 'well I guess I screwed-up, I'll smoke for now and try to quit some other time'. That's what always messed me up.

Do not prepare your own tax returns at a time when your partner is out all day and due home late because of meetings. Do not have a wine cellar, or decide to prepare an evening meal that requires alcohol as an ingredient. Do not force yourself to stay home and do admin on a sunny day. Do not answer the phone if you do. Or check emails at all.

Do not get bored.

So much for the scientific approach. Before I left France there was talk of a drug that helped completely cut nicotine cravings and that was without side effects, though the clinical tests hadn't yet been published. Since when, zilch. Shame, as it sounded ideal. I've heard that tincture of alfalfa and avena sativa combined (homeopathic remedies) works really well, from someone who chain smoked.
