    What's in a year?

    So, it's my one-year anniversary today. 7300 cigarettes not smoked. I like numbers, so let's crunch a few. Based on some very hasty (and probably inaccurate) research, that's approximately 167,900 milligrams of tar not inhaled. 131,400 milligrams of CO not inhaled. Who knows about the other...

    Didja miss me?

    I'm sure I'll hear a chorus of "Yes, but we're reloading!" :) What with the pressures of finishing a post-secondary ed-ja-ma-cation, maintaining a good GPA and whatnot, my forum activities kinda fell by the wayside. Thankfully, however, vaping has not. No matter the stress or the temptation...

    Well, I made it through.

    Just finished my first semester of school (Landscape Design, for those who are keeping track.) as a vaper (fifth overall), and boy oh boy. Was it ever a doozie. First of all, it's a condensed semester (7 weeks as opposed to 15) and so we have the same workload and expectations, but half the...

    Provari!

    I have my Provari in hand, and all I can say is wow. Should've gotten this a long time ago. Aside from being just an absolute beauty, it's given me renewed confidence in my DID coil-building abilities. It's only given me one error code, and my resistance has been pretty consistent...

    Not with a bang but a whimper...

    The subject line doesn't 100% accurately portray what just happened to me, however I like both cultural references and T. S. Eliot, so pthhthbhbphtbpht. Anyway, that over and done with, I was busy setting up my DID with a new coil today, taking all necessary precautions to avoid shorts and...

    Feeling a lot better today.

    Well, two good things happened today, so I am feeling a lot less agitated than yesterday. First, my DIY supplies arrived. I'm now set for over a year's worth of vaping if I go through 100ml per month, which is a little on the high side. :) Second, I got me a shipping notice in my email from...

    Just bought me my six-month present.

    I kinda waffled for a couple of days over whether I should actually place the order or not, but in the end my magpie tendencies won out. MisterMike just picked himself up a Provari. Whoo! That was a bit of an adrenaline rush, clicking that checkout button. Time to put the brakes on for a...

    I keep missing my anniversaries.

    Seems like my anniversaries fall on days where too much is happening. :P Well, three months (On Aug. 1) has come and gone, and I'm still going strong. Feeling great, smelling great, and having a great time on the hunt for the white stag that is my ADV. I've learned a few things in my...

    Just need to vent a little.

    Well, it's been almost a week of renos. Opening walls in a 50-year-old house is like opening that 4'x4'x8' Christmas present just to find out it's all socks and underwear. I want to find the grave of person who strung the electrical in our basement so I can dig up the corpse, nail it to my...

    Here comes the acid test.

    Sometime today, I officially become a homeower for the first time. Yes, I deliberately left out the N. What does that have to do with vaping? Well, there are some renos to do (nothing extraordinarily huge), packing, moving and unpacking, and a lot of little unforeseen things that will pile up...

    Just received some good news!

    My wife got off the phone just now with a friend of ours, and it turns out she and her husband made the switch to vaping 2 weeks ago. They picked up a couple of kits from the local flea market (I didn't realize we had a vape booth there) and they've been going at it (the vaping, I mean ;) )...

    A pleasant vapemail surprise

    So I've got an order from Canvape that's supposed to be arriving today. I've also got DIY supplies on the way that are due Monday, and I figured they'd be languishing in Mississauga for the weekend. Imagine my surprise when I loaded up my tracking numbers and found that both packages were out...

    Absence makes the heart grow fonder?

    Egads, go somewhere without internet for five days and come back to three pages' worth of posts to catch up on. All done. Anyway, quick story: We get home from the cottage where I had brought along my eGos, a couple of Boge cartos and some Jokesmoke 2.0 to get me through the week. After...

    Anybody up in the Saugeen Shores area?

    Hey everyone, Tomorrow, I'm heading up north to Southampton (heh) for a week or so, and was wondering if anybody on here lives in/is visiting that area, and would like to possibly meet up for a coffee or something. That is all. Mike

    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...

    Tea time!

    So, I decided to try this tonight: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/250782-vaping-tea.html Only difference was I used a bag of Earl Grey, and got slightly more than 30ml out of it. (Probably put in slightly more than 30ml of PG into the pan, too.) Y'know what? I'm...

    My first DIY

    So, while running errands today, I picked up some VG (and ordered half a litre of PG at the same time - love my pharmacist. No questions asked.) at the local Rexall, with the intention of using the DIY flavours I won on Vape Skool a few weeks ago. Figured I'd do up a little 0-nic juice for...

    Another anniversary!

    Well, I can't compete with Toronto_Mike's 6 months, but I've officially made it a month myself. (I filled out my signature banner thing wrong - I smoked my last cigarette on the 30th of April, but didn't officially quit until May 1.) Didn't even realize it'd been a month until his post...

    Seems like it's my week for doing stupid things.

    So, you know about my inadvertent carto murder yesterday. Here's what happened today. I'm sitting at home minding my own business, just dripping and vaping and poking around TVTropes.org, when I decide I want a change of flavours. So, I take the atty off my LT, detach the drip tip, and...

    Old Goat Bottom Feeder (and senseless carto murder to boot).

    So, I received my Old Goat bottom feeder the other day (I'd say last Wednesday or so) and it's been great. Bit of a learning curve so far as how much and when to squonk (love that word) but I think I'm finally getting the hang of it. Works beautifully with a Boge carto, and it lasts me more...
