The VMod, yes. But...I think my little green machine will serve me well for a long time. It works great. If it ever fails me, I'll certainly look closer at the V mod.

Well, let's see: I bought the #10 Hog, which made me the first to lose the bet. Then I traded for the little green mod. Then I sold my Megalodon (Donna) and used the money from that sale towards this mod. So...paid for mods, just two.
Today's Darwin Award goes to my neighbor Robert (who insists on being called Robert).
I came home from Busch Gardens with a note on my door from Robert's wife Dagny. The note read "Magnus, please come to our house and help. Robert is going to get us all killed."...
I go in, change, get Ceridwen changed, and we both start walking down the street. As I get to their driveway I see the garage is open and Robert is squatted in front of the AC condenser and air handler inside. And *POP* there are sparks and a brief fireball. And Robert careens backwards into his car and Dagny screams and Ceridwen bursts into tears from the commotion.
Robert is a Plastic Surgeon. And a very wealthy man. Yet he insists on DIY for everything and to my knowledge has not done anything right. Ever.
After I get Dagny to tell me where the circuit breaker is and I confirm it has been tripped I go back out to check on Robert. Who is now using a screwdriver to separate out the melted mess of wires inside the AC block. Even Ceridwen realized this was a bad idea and is hiding behind the car bent over into an inverted V looking from under the car.
Robert is totally ignoring me and I'm not saying a word because I'm fairly sure he can't get anybody hurt at the moment. Then I notice a few things:
1) The safety switch that makes sure the panels are on before running the AC is taped into the on position.
2) It is awfully clean looking inside that panel and everything is wet.
3) There is a squirt bottle, a toothbrush, and WD-40 sitting at Robert's side.
What was he trying to do?
REPLACE THE AIR FILTER THAT WAS THE BIG BOXY UNIT THAT SAID "AIR FLOW DIRECTION" OVER TO THE SIDE.
The bloody dolt didn't even know what the air filter was, bought some screen air filter from Target that was made for I think a small apartment sized unit, and came home to proceed to "fix" the AC. Brushing and cleaning WITH WATER AND WD-40!!!
On the upside Robert's wife is quite nice, engaging, and attractive. And she invites me over a lot when he is not home. Maybe she is already planning for his imminent death. *sigh* -Magnus

I didn't realize the pod that was in her driveway was for MODs...
I need some suggestions. Everything I want to order is out of stock, or they are on vacation.
KBV is gone until the 4th.
QNJ is gone until the 1st.
Vapalicious is out of Vape Heaven.
AVE is out of Boba's.
Should I just put the wife's credit card back in her purse and give up? Or should I try somewhere else? Any suggestions on something awesome? (I have probably tried it, but you can suggest flavors to me through pm or here.)

Magnus, please please stay away from Robert...well...AND his wife (until the man kills himself "fixing" something else anyway) for your own safety! Mercy. 
And FYI, I only have 3 mods in my possession, one out on loan and two more out for repair. That's only 6 mods, and one is very tiny!
Lynlee, I did...and I sold it so I could by my #10 Hog. I'm a feeder mod girl for life now.
Keyzy, it's a VV Ali'i. And a damn pretty one at that.

Too late. Dagny came over to my house and watched Ceridwen while I went to Lowes to get parts and come back, rinse and dry the electrics, and repair the damage he did. Mostly cut and solder some wires, cap, and tape everything back up right. And I bought the right air filter and that was that.
Robert didn't say a word and I'm a bit miffed. He could've said thank you when I was done. It's Florida and they have AC that rich ungracious ...... Oh well, I'm quite an intolerable buffoon myself I suppose. -Magnus

ugggggg my son just broke my coffee pot. busted the whole caraffe... I am already having withdrawls and its not even 5am yet...
Well, I recently got back from the Ohio vape meet. It was great! Drew had all kinds of stuff and Brandon fixed a mod I got in a TC, and I won a mod that Drew made. The e-cig powers that be are looking over me right now. I was trying to win the Vapor Moon 5v. Now I wont be too disappointed if I dont!
Pics under Ohio group in Social forum. Sounds like you had an interested evening yourself Magnus....

Odd. I broke mine a few hours ago but I had a backup per chance from an experience years ago. Watch your coffee pots people! -Magnus

Desperation makes you try odd things. A saucepan works for a caraffe in a pinch.

I usually keep a French press around because I've broken multiple coffee pots every year for awhile now lol
Bianca, and right in a knick of time. Shame R&R is closing up shop. -Magnus
This is why everybody should be like me and shun that nasty, bitter liquid.
