    In The Flesh on BBC

    I probably should have posted something about this before it aired, but I didn't. BBC just finished the last of a 3 part special called In The Flesh. Partial Death Syndrome sufferers (zombies) are medically treated and released back into their reluctant communities. Community people still...

    Woops - made a mistake on my order

    I just glanced at my order confirmation e-mail and realized I made a mistake on my order. Order 32881. I ordered 24mg Peanut Butter Cookies - it should have been 18mg. Ugh. Any way this can be changed? I'll try to remember to call today (you have a phone number now!).

    A question for ProVape (or anyone else who can answer)

    I've had two ProVari regulars for a couple of years - started using them when they first came out. In the last two days I've had strangeness happen with both of them. I'm kind of thinking it isn't the ProVaris, because one has been sitting in my supply kit as a spare for most of the last two...

    This doesn't matter to anyone but me

    but I'm still excited, and how sad is it that I have nowhere to bubble over about it but here? And wasn't that a run-on sentence? Finally, after two years, I'm completely redoing the master bedroom and bathroom in my house. When I get done, it won't look even a little bit like it did when my...

    It's dark and spooky in here. Where is everyone?

    Stupid Zombies

    OK, so I've been debating for a while about whether to get a new tablet or not. My old one is a Viewsonic G Tablet that I cracked and hacked and put Honeycomb on it (newer revision of the Android operating system, for those who don't know). It had good specs, but the shipped OS stunk on ice. It...

    Zombie attack in Miami

    This is clearly a zombie attack, they just don't use the word: Police Look For Witnesses Of Face-Chewing Attack : NPR Or, you know, someone completely batcrap crazy, but I'm going with zombie.

    Do you have a kindle?

    If you do, I can recommend three books. Well, more like two and a half books. LZR-1143: Infection LZR-1143: Evolution LZR-1143: Perspectives I read the last one first, because it was free, and it was just some short stories. Based on that, I pried loose the $10 for the other two books...

    You're a hit in San Diego

    A couple of weeks ago I got a phone call from San Diego. A friend I've known for 20 years had a heart attack and was in ICU. Fortunately, he's out now and he's fine, but his doctor flatly told him it was a choice between giving up the cigarettes or giving up life. He wanted (finally) to know...

    A craving, after a year....

    Just a few days - less than two weeks - short of a year away from the time I smoked, and yesterday hit me with the strongest craving I've had for a cigarette since I quit. I was watching a movie, and the actor lit up a cig and took a drag. I could feel the smoke. My fingers itched to pull a...

    2 good reason not to tighten your carto

    Right after getting my ProVari (has it really been almost a year ago?) I learned one reason not to tighten down the carto on it. Tighten it too much, and it really reduces the airflow. I just learned another. If you keep the carto a little loose, when it drops off the table and smashes against...

    GLV3 Mini: a couple of minor tweaks

    I just got my GLV3 Mini (off the classifieds) and it had some minor damage in the wiring. After a phone call with Jay, I felt confident enough to tackle it myself, rather than sending it in. And while I had it apart, I just tweaked a couple of things.... The little orange ball is a good idea...

    I was very sad, then happy, now sad again

    I bought a GLV2 Mini a while ago (blue purple flip flop) that I gave to my sister to use. She loved it, but she has mod envy and kept eying my ProVari. Well, one day I put mine down somewhere in a store, and walked off and left it. I scoured the store and didn't find it, the Customer Service...

    Questions about iAtty - practical use

    It looks like I'm going to try out an iAtty (once they're available) but first I had some questions that I haven't seen answers to... -When creating the coil, is there a method that will let me target a specific resistance? I'm nto as high powered as it sounds like many of you are. At 3 ohms...

    I'm not Canadian, I just play one on TV, but....

    Any of you seen this site yet? NicFits If you go look, check out this section, where they've decided to post people's names, addresses, phone numbers and photos of their houses - for selling e-cig supplies. NicFits I'd be a little torqued off.

    It drives me freakin' nuts

    I've almost posted three responses in the last few minutes that really shouldn't be posted, and this is just venting. FREAKING STUPID CONSERVATIVES WHO CAN BLITHELY POST AND GRIPE ABOUT THE LIBERALS AND PROGRESSIVES "PUSHING THEIR MORALS" ON EVERYONE ELSE WHEN YOU KNOW THESE ARE THE SAME...

    Peanut Butter Cup - First Vapes

    This flavor is what Reese's wants to be when it grows up. The peanuts are freshly ground, still hot from roasting. The chocolate is deep and dark and just sweet enough, without being too sweet. I knew from past experience that chocolate flavors need a little bump to transition from a dusty...

    This bites - lost my ProVari

    So I'm shopping today, picking up a few things, and I've got my ProVari with me. As I leave the store, I realize I no longer have my ProVari with me. I put my stuff in the car, went back into the store, checked at the Customer Service desk, they haven't seen it. I walk back all around the store...

    Dieting the easy(er) way

    So for the last few months I've indulged in a little stress eating and am up about 10-15 lbs over what I prefer to see on the scale. Diet time. Without the stress actually being gone, or any real motivation to do it. It's tough. Since I started, I've been craving a hot croissant, fresh from the...

    IKV 510 Mega LR carto question

    I just got 10 of these to try, and had a question. It's the first time I've used filled cartos (CE2 before I experimented with tanks) and I don't know what's unique to the IKV ones and what is common to filled cartos. They do take about 30 drops to fill, but they have to be frequently topped...
