All of these holiday wishes brought back memories of my late husband, David. He sent this holiday wish out via email to friends and family in 2005. His style was unique. You might get a kick out of it. Bear in mind that the man was literally a rocket scientist. I really miss that man, but I know he'll always be with me.

The T-3s are here! The T-3s are here! Can you tell I got vape mail.

I was totally surprised when I looked in the mailbox:thumbs:

Oh yeah, I ripped open the package, opened a T-3, filled it halfway up and...it vapes perfectly. I went with Midnight Express for my first T-3 vape.:banana::banana:

The tank seems huge!!!!

Wow, clouds of vapor.:vapor:

Good thing I got my new Wizard Lab flavors today, too. I got so many flavors, I am scaring myself.

Jingles Bells, All is Well, My vape supplies came today. Oh what fun it is to vape and throw those ciggies away.


Isn't it especially good when you get vape mail that arrives BEFORE you expect it??

Now if you had a sleigh with some bells added for you and Wiseguy... that song would have new meaning!! ;)

Hey gang, I just sent a message to Imagine and mentioned NOT to boil your Nana, whoops I mean Nano's:facepalm:

I threw in my Nano when boiling some cartos to clean and it melted the tip :laugh: Now I am tipless? Anyway, most of the Nano is plastic. It still works, but I need to vape it without the tip. I tried the rubber replacement tips, but they pop off, too small. Just a warning.

Nanos definitely work better tipsy. :D

Your pictures are great Rave! I bought a purple T3 for my rainbow X2. Can't wait to get it and vape with style! I did order a copper X2 for some variety :)

Your picture was great too! I have a 650 rainbow and I plan on getting a 900 very soon. Love that shine and smooth finish.

Heh, I played WoW for 5 years, was a senior officer in my raiding guild. Had a max level toon of every class except warrior and DK. We were a older and mature guild. Finally got burnt and quit, but still miss the people occasionally. Was funny, even after a year I would have dreams of places. Missed the last 2 expansions.

Now, I play Civ V, Borderlands 2, and Red Orchestra that I just picked up on Steam for 75% off. They have amazing deals this time of year.

I also occasionally play online poker (funny money) at Poker Stars.

But, lately, I leave work thinking I am gonna play something after I get home and take care of the critters. But when that comes around I am just too tired to fire up a game.

Anyway, have fun everyone, be safe! And I pray for Blue's to continue a smooth recovery.

I'm a Zelda fan. Love playing those video games. Never could get into playing with others online though.

Oh maaan! That was great ---- And I needed that. Thanks!! *still chuckling*

Okay - Here's the Bluesman update. Sorry I've been remiss, but everything was kinda still up in the air.

Thursday, Blues had his surgery (double bypass). Looks like it all went well with one hitch. When they restarted his heart, his rhythm was "off". Dunno if that's supposed to just kick in to a regular rhythm or not, but they need to keep an eye on it.

This morning, he had a transient ischemic attack. That's a mini-stroke. It temporarily slurred Blues' speech and numbed the right side of his body. The doctor said those symptoms lasted about 20 minutes and now have passed. He seems to be normal now. They will need to maintain very close observation and take precautions to avoid further problems. It is not rare to experience a TIA after heart surgery, but they do not want Blues to suffer a stroke.

Frankly folks, I'm freaking out a bit because I can't be there with him. Please continue to send your positive thoughts and prayers his way.

:nun:

Thanks for the update Rave. I've been wondering how things are going. Thinking of you both.

OMG, Rave; what a hoot! I worked for a mechanical engineer (who loved to tell "shaggy dog" stories), years ago, who told us his wife was an artist, and he said what an unlikely pairing it was...this 72yo man's cheekbones would get pink, just telling us about his wife; it was obvious she was still the light of his life. I bet Dave admired you just as much as you adored him. Judging by that^^ little example, he must have been a singular guy.
