Hummm it was weird...I had to have more blood work done...my white count is high but my red count is really low...I am anemic..and my joints are all swollen...so he wanted another round of blood work so we can figure it out and maybe a bone biopsy. So I guess we will see..I hate going to the doctors now lol. But I did get to go out and eat with my hubby so that was nice. And I did get to sleep the rest of the afternoon lol.

I asked Matt about those not too long ago and it seems he changed his mind. He told me to stay away from them.


Ohhh NO, NO, NO, NO, Amber, Matthew told you to stay away from the XC-116 Rope like Cilica wicks, because the small microns break down, and get caught in the throat :) There are different types of Ceramics out there, as well as the manufacturing process of how they make them :),,,, >>>>> I often wonder though what Bert has up his sleeve for 2013, he's the silent type, surprise type, great product release type of guy :lol::lol::lol:

Oh and Happy New Year Tripsters :)

wow, we are finally back and tired but yet revitalized. the game was a blast even though the thunder lost, being there is just very exciting...if your a hoops fan,lol.
we had a great hotel right in bricktown with a big Jacuzzi in our room and a look out over the bricktown ballpark. i took a spill coming out of bricktown brewery and twisted and bruised my knee but doing that was much better than the alternative which was eating concrete from 8-10 steps up.

hmmmm... I punched a carto today that is delivering lots of wonderful warm vapor... gets me to wondering why they're not all like this?

I usually do two punches... most times I get cooler vapes -- but this warm vapor is just the way I like it! I wonder if I'm over punching or something

ive used those punches too delilia. with my punches i twist pretty slow and can feel it get tighter and tighter til it pops through at that point i give it a 1/4 turn and back it off and punch the other side the same way. i used to do 3 also amie but went through a series of cartos that i had to of punched too deep as they flooded. i got very frustrated and went back to 2 holes with some success.

The best place to punch is down at the bottom of your tank....that way all the fluid can get in. I do my two holes 180 out as far down as i can....bigger is better(as long as it doesn't leak) but the problem with that punching device is if you try to go too deep you can deform the little tube inside or the carto itself. I use something like that to put small dimples in the carto then drill it out on a press(with a v block)

Hey trippies....watching a glass blower on this old house. Very cool.

I find that I only need one hole with shorter cartos, like the boge that fit into my jonboy. I get the triple pinch for the dct tanks and I punch two holes in the Xl boge cartos. I have been using 100% VG. Anything thinner floods the way I do it.

I don't think the number of holes affects the heat. I'm no expert though.....
