    I was wondering why I woke up in 1975 Redhook, New Jersey with a sore ... and a Lucky Strike in my fingers ........

    "Think, McFly, think!" "You're a slacker, McFly! You're a slacker, your father was a slacker, and your kids will be slackers, and you'll always be a slacker!" "Chuck?! It's your cousin, Marvin Berry! I think I've found your new sound!!" "Marty, it's your kids! They're all screwed up...

    From my experience, as long as you hit exactly 88 mph at the precise moment your coil is energized by lightning striking the clock tower , thereby generating the 4 (4 to 4.2 will get the job done) megawatts...... your vape will be stellar! :laugh:

    I'd just like to gently "push back" on that a little bit ........ It does seem to me that there are a fair amount of "free market" forces at work in the admittedly still-relatively-young joooose market that at least kinda tend to keep most vendors from charging whatever they feel like for...

    Converting people

    This is interesting to me, and this is not meant as a slam on anybody for not feeling or thinking the way I just happen to, through no real doing of my own. We don't choose our DNA and life experiences, and I am no better or worse than anyone else. and that is not what "this" is about. To me...

    Converting people

    Most of "my" converts have stayed with vaping. ("My" in quotes because I do not take, nor feel I deserve, any credit for my DNA, brain/consciousness/intelligence/neural network/life experiences that just happened to lead me to what I consider to be a "superior" alternative to cigarette smoking...

    Converting people

    And then there was the dyslexic, agnostic insomniac who kept waking up in the middle of the night wondering if there is a Dog. *** Hey, nice going on the conversions. I remain determined to "trick" people into being kind to themselves by switching to vaping ..... I think my latest approach...

    Hmmm ... with mine, sometimes the wick/coil manages to loosen up a bit when I unscrew the top, if it's not tightened firmly enough. Do you tighten them down snugly with a suitable screwdriver, or just tighten them finger-tight? Also, does that same wick/coil work fine in a different tank...

    That was my implication, and the inspiration for that observation comes from Woody Allen, in his great and wacky movie "Sleeper", where he's cryogenically frozen circa 1973 due to an incurable, terminal illness and is thawed out and cured 200 years later. When he wakes up and learns what year...

    E-man - The universe - the ultimate source of anything that any of us is, thinks, says, or does - says "thank you" through "me". (I now voluntarily commit myself to the loony bin, before I further inflict my dangerous and heretical views on an innocent and unsuspecting public. If they have a...

    I got my first Vivi Nova maybe 3 months ago, and I haven't screwed around with anything since. The things just go and go and go, and I vape and vape and vape, as opposed to fuss and fuss and fuss. Every half a day or so, I say to myself "self ... that last hit tasted a bit 'off' .... what...

    I am moving to New Orleans .... I'll rent, at first .... (from the ending of "Groundhog Day"). I find myself wondering if "Superbad" was filmed in New Orleans (pronounced "Nawlins", just for the record) .... Superbad - Cop Car - YouTube I do wish that all law enforcement officers could be...

    You could always just tell them that it's an .... probe, and that if they bend over, you'd be happy to demonstrate it for them ..... hehe And +1 on the retractable shank idea ... I'm a bit of a tinkerer, and would be happy to assist ..... :) Aww, bummer .... well, I'm going to give you the...

    No worries, mate. :) No worries, mate. :) Here, I found a couple of good ones: Frazier's David Hyde Pierce has some great advice about staying in school, with the added bonus of a look at "Eddie", Frazier's Jack Russell Terrier: The More You Know with David Hyde Pierce - YouTube But I...

    Ooh, ooh, let me handle this one! When I saw Eric use it, I pretty much had it right, but I did some research just to make sure. It confirmed my suspicion that it's a somewhat sarcastic, but in the case of Eric's use of it, not inherently mean-spirited "poke" at someone for laying out a bunch...

    mostapha has once again hit one out of the park, and I believe it's still going. I'm feeling more than a little obtuse for not realizing the higher meaning of what seemed at first an utterly absurd notion; that if one enjoys smoking cigarettes, but just might happen to not know, or accept, that...

    Pet Peeve - That people like this guy - Dr. David A. Dawkins - can somehow have a world-wide reputation as a great teacher of wisdom and enlightenment, yet can somehow give this answer to the question - which I could not understand at first - "How do you transcend the belief that smoking is...

    Oddish? You seem quite normal to me, at least judging by your avatar pic. :) Seriously, you seem like one hell of an interesting guy, and I'd love to talk to you sometime. I dig the hell out of the entire Scandinavian region; you guys have the highest rate of atheism in the world, are the...
