    Bring them over from the dark side

    Well, I know that Ed Holder for one is incapable of having an opinion that Steven Harper hasn't fed to him, so we'd have to get our illustrious PM on board somehow. :P I think our best bet is Bev Oda. She'll be all over it if it's free. I'm interested to see what happens. Perhaps along with...

    To the Daddies out there

    Thank'ee, sir! Gotta replace the burner in my grill before I can BBQ, but so far it's been a pretty good day. Also, I've got to hold some kind of record. It's my eighth Father's Day and I've yet to receive a tie. :D To all the other dads out there, hope your day is going well, too! :D...

    So... Tabasco is spicy, you say? Next you'll be telling me that a garlic press is not generally used for at-the-table seasoning. I love the way three cloves of garlic add a subtle bouquet to what I'm eating. :D Seriously though, I'm a month and a half in, and I still don't know how much of...

    I remember the C-train... always some very interesting people aboard. One of the more useful people-movers of the city, I always thought. Fragrant, but useful. :)

    My my, hey hey...

    The coil definitely popped. I saw the flash, just like an incandescent light bulb burning out. It's more annoying than anything else, really.

    My my, hey hey...

    Yeah. I know. It's so hard letting go, though. :( I suppose it's now attached to that big Provari in the sky. G'bye Biff... *sniff* I'll miss you. Ok, well now that that's over with... Yeah. I used to work in tech, so I know anything can fail sooner than it's expected to and that's just...

    My my, hey hey...

    Guess my Vision Extreme I just filled with delicious, nutritious Juggy's VG RY4 thought it was "better to burn out than to fade away" when I went to take a puff just now. :glare: We are not amused. It had been sitting for a while, so it wasn't really hot to begin with or anything, and I...

    Stinky stories

    I know what you're saying. That half-butted cig smell got to me even when I was smoking. My aunt-in-law (if that's even a term) was over a while back (probably a week or so into my vaping) and she popped out for a few puffs, put it out and came back inside. Man oh man did that ever reek. I...

    I think I need to stop shopping

    Who would want to quit vaping anyway? ;) I agree, though... All of the money I budget for personal spending every month goes directly towards vaping, now. In fact, I fill up shopping carts days in advance to see how much I can get away with buying. :D I think I'm addicted to spending...

    Happy Anniversary

    Ah. Good to know. I was kind of spooked by a mod bringing up a ban in response to a post I made. :oops: Thanks for the clarification.

    Happy Anniversary

    That just got me wondering... what's the traditional gift for a one-year vaperversary? I know for a wedding anniversary it's paper... Hmm. Paper is consumable... We use it on a daily basis... So the vaping equivalent could be e-liquid? Or cartos? We really need to chart this out. :)

    Stinky stories

    Whenever I'm in the kitchen and the windows are open, and I hear the snick! of a lighter next door, I can almost immediately smell the smoke drifting in. Even those first few wisps are enough to make me gag. It's insidious. I can't imagine how my wife put up with me after she quit. I kind of...

    That's great! Congratulations! A year is an amazing achievement! :toast:

    I think I need to stop shopping

    I found the "money saved" line in those sigs to be disingenuous, too. That's why I chose the REO sig banner. $XXX not spent on tobacco is much more accurate. I like to keep tabs on how much I've spent, too, so I'll know when this new hobby starts paying for itself.

    A Mod has ruined my chance for a photochop so I am putting it here thread

    Heh. I can just see the real-estate agent's spiel twenty years down the line. "And in this LOVEly modern kitchen, we have stainless steel appliances, an induction cooktop, and - oh! Here's a new feature! Hot and cold running Geoff's Blend next to the sink. Currently the meter's set for 12mg...

    On my way

    Woohoo! Glad you've found something that works for you right out of the gate. Welcome to your new lease on a smoke-free life! Doesn't it feel great to know you're not ruled by tobacco any more?

    You've been vaping way too long if.......

    ...the local nightclub has you on speed-dial for when their fog machine breaks.
