    TV Tobacco + ???

    I've gotten to where TV Tobacco is my favorite tobacco vape. But that doesn't necessarily mean I'm not curious about experimenting with it. Specifically, I've been curious about other tobacco essences--perique and (especially) latakia--available as flavoring from other vendors. Has anybody...

    Importance of Air Quality Testing of Vapor

    The only thing that made me vote "Moderately Important" is cynicism about whether positive data could actually be used to make a case for expanded public vaping to those already mindset to oppose it.

    Anyone else HATE video reviews? (Rant)

    I agree about the vapor production, especially when somebody blows out uninhaled vapor to dramatize it. I've seen this in so many videos, and it reminds me of watching a TV show or movie with a nonsmoking actor trying to depict a smoker--not inhaling, just blowing out clouds of smoke. Unconvincing.

    IF there's a ban, would ECF stay?

    Might depend on what form a ban might take--what remains legal and what becomes illegal. I could see the list of banned words/topics skyrocketing, though.

    When it came really down to it, would your pet defend you?

    We've had various numbers of Dobes for something like 12 years now, and we talk about this from time to time. Of the several that have come and gone over the years, I think the older of our two present females, Rosie, is the one with the most protective instinct to rip an aggressive intruder a...

    High School

    There was absolutely no sanctioned smoking facility where I went to H.S. in the late '60s - early '70s. Closest there was was one secluded embankment/stairway where the school grounds adjoined a quiet street. It was popularly know as ".... Row." I think it was the smoking place for a...

    Did your doctor approve of your vaping?

    Sounds like somebody needs to get a French doctor! :laugh:

    Site Upgrade - The Aftermath

    Ran into an odd block. From another member's profile, I attempted to use the link to find all blog posts by that user (who, I'm pretty sure had some) and got the "not-allowed" screen .

    Why Isn't Ginger...

    ...on the pulldown list for custom flavor options? Gingerbread has become my early a.m. go-to. I'm afraid to make it my all-day because I don't want to get tired of it. But it seems to me that ginger flavoring is a TH agent on par with cinnamon, and I could see doing some other experimenting...

    What TV flavor are you vaping right now?

    TV Tobacco 24mg--cut with somebody else's tobacco doubler because I have a ton of it.

    What's your favorite song and why?

    This, to me, is a VERY hard one to answer. To a certain degree, I'm sort of an "if you can't be with the song you love, love the song you're with" kind of guy. But Gene Clark (originally with the Byrds, for you oldsters like me) has been my way-favorite songwriter for many decades, so I know...

    Site Upgrade - The Aftermath

    Could that small-print list of excluded forums that appears at the top of the Today's Posts results screen please go away eventually? For us small-screen (e.g., netbook) users it's nearly half a screenful of content. Perhaps a link or mouseover with that info instead?

    Liquid Nicotine story.

    In a small pilot study, the solution proved effective. Twenty-five smokers chose a date to quit and were given the solution to mix into their beverages with instructions to use it as needed for smoking urges during a 12-week period. Participants drank between 2.5 milligrams to 10 milligrams of...

    Your Favorite movie quotes???

    "He gets mad because he can't read." "I said don't point at her, you pompous celibate!" "Smoking is the only thing I know that's always just what you think it's going to be."

    Did your doctor approve of your vaping?

    I told my doctor (actually the substitute for the substitute for my doctor--long story) and she was very enthusiastic, "Awesome!!!," but didn't pursue the subject or ask any questions. Then again, she's a fresh grad from the same med school where research was conducted "proving" that e-cigs...

    How much were cigs when you starting smoking?

    As an underage smoker (like 1966 and on) in a place where the stores tended to be strict about proving you were 16, I had to resort to any of several unattended vending machines (and I knew where they all were). But this meant I had to pay a bit more for a pack than I would have OTC. Maybe 45...

    When did you start smoking and why?

    Maybe 11 or so when I tried my first one. More like 13 when I started buying them (1966), but it took me a year or two more before I started noticing I craved them if I had to go too long without. Still it wasn't until college I hit pack-a-day. Oddly, it wasn't a coolness thing for me since...
