Is that Wheatgrass Chelle? Or Barley?

Neiter, it's kale, apples, celery, cucumber...maybe something else, I can't remember now. Was NOT yummy. :( Today was sweet potato/beets/bell pepper/...maybe something else (Beth is juicing this stuff while I'm looking for a place to hide :blink:) and it was better, but...*shudder* I know it's good for us, but damn.

So, I ordered 3 different peach flavorings and I mixed up 3 samples and I found one I really enjoy. :) I have proven to myself that I CAN DIY my liquid. Yay!

Good morning, peeps. It's the weekend, get to work!

Thanks for the video.

Here's my recent experience, otherwise known as a rant. I ordered 3 of the GP's CE2. I filled them up, a miracle, no syringe, no punching holes in cartos, oh :censored:, this is it! First vape, oh hell ya. Gave it to Heather to experience such vaping bliss and filled up another. Heather had straight up put down the vape over leaking carto tanks, muted taste, et el. The next tank that I filled up was supposed to be the exact same thing, ohm wise just a different color. It tasted burnt immediately. I told Heather about tipping it to keep the short wicks wet but she brought it back to me saying it was tasting funny. It was starting to get a burnt flavor.
The third one that I ordered was the wrong color and now I think that they were all the lowest ohms. There's no way that they are the 2.5-2.9 ohms and tasting burnt after being babied, very long time between drags and sitting on it's side, so the wick is constantly touching the juice.

I just gave up and opened some new boge 3ohm cartos. I'll try them again but this time the name brand not the store's brand and I'm definitely going to have to have to add an ohm tester in the cart at the local home improvement store just to prove that I'm not crazy, well not in this situation anyway:)

I'll also watch the videos about cleaning the stupid things and try them again before throwing them out but that will be after more home improvement projects, which are never ending. I'll be in the bathroom touching up painting, installing new hardware and planning some new artwork for the room.

The latest pack of the short wicks I got are not doing well, I cant get a really good clean vape off them, the 2 long wicks are great- of course, lucky me, I lost a battery AND my last good long wicked one yesterday- somewhere in my house. I guess I should try to clean the other long wick I had last week- it lasted me 2 weeks before I felt it needed changing.

I think that I met the most insane dog groomer today and that's coming from someone who has dealt with some cray-cray people over a lifetime in the South. This woman told us her life story, complete with dating history, while dropping off the dogs. She said that no one understands and can talk to animals like her and that's why she hasn't had a date in 7 years.

Willow, the ancient poodle, is mostly deaf, has herniated discs and seizures, so we need someone who is really gentle and understands that she is in pain and very fearful. Our last groomer just up and disappeared. We even tried to contact her on Facebook and pay her extra, since Willow actually liked her.

So, that leads us to this crazy ... dog groomer and Willow liked this woman. She believes that she can talk to dogs like Dr. Doolittle and charges almost double of everyone else but Willow liked her. We asked her to trim Willow's feet really close but she didn't. Why you may ask? Because Willow told her not to.....

:headdesk:



I had a client who set up trusts for his grandchildren. Client was VERY wealthy...grandchildren were spoiled idiots.

I always wondered why the grandfather set up the terms of the trusts the way he did (very detailed, some unusual requirements and unusual restrictions)

Anyhoo - wondered until I got to know the grandchildren (all adults by the way)

My most entertaining grandchild was a pet psychic. And 2 of her "clients" and her own dog told her she needed to move to San Fransisco because the animals there needed her. She was living in Oregon at the time.

For months every time one of my co-workers asked me a "why" question I replied "because my cat told to"

LMAO....................I can understand that! Funny how horrible some of these taste juiced. Especially the "greens"

I have to ask only because so many don't know and I hate they are doing something that is actually rather unpleasant and aren't getting the benefits they think they are. The advertising for these juicers pisses me off actually. Should be false advertisement.

What type of juicer do you have?

Without getting all technical, if you have one that spins quickly, chops and shreds, the majority of the nutrients and live enzymes are being destroyed by the centrifugal force. The heat destroys them. So you and millions of others are NOT getting the benefits they tell you that you will get. What is needed is a machine that masticates whatever is put in the juicer.

I really wish someone would sue these companies that tout how healthy you will become if you use their juicer when they know damn well (or at least should) there juicer destroys the main things you need for it to actually be beneficial. Granted you will still get fiber and a minimal amount of nutrients but nothing near what people think they are getting.

Ummm.................just wanted you to know. :blush: :)

Hi! :) We've got the Breville (sp?), it's got different juicing speeds. Beth does the softer veggies/fruits on the slower setting and the harder (apples etc.) on the faster setting. She confirms what you're saying so apparently she was aware of that (I had no clue!). Interesting!! Thanks for looking out for us! :D

Mine are hit and miss too. The ones that do work well, last MONTHS. I tend to only order a couple at at time, but I only use them when I go out really. I'm about to say "f" it and just take my Vmodxl bottom feeder out with me though. One atty can last me a couple months too and for an 18650 feeder, this mod is SMALL. I agree with Phil, all the revisions and shiznit...it's just frustrating. :glare:
 
Yep, I lmAo AT that video- - "but I come in colors"

I just ordered me 5 more- I tend to freak out when I dont have a backup.. LOL But, yes, I prefer the long wicks. I will say, I think I found my perfect vape. :) or as perfect as something that is as inconstistant as vaping can be...

Yeah I'm fed up too with the whole Clearo / Vision mess. Very inconsistent.

Even tried these the other day (eGo 2.4ml Changeable Coil Cartomizer 1.8ohm), hoping they were something different. Not to pick on that vendor, they're available at some other sites as well.

Got 3 of them and a box of replacement coils. They are a little different in some ways, but the same concept overall. Figured I'd start off easy with the 70/30 PG/VG. Was pleasantly suprised, didn't take long and had a pretty good and flavorful vape. Had myfingers crossed...

Rinsed it out and popped on a replacement head, here comes the 50/50. Let it wick a good bit tilting and tilting etc. But right back to the very muted hot wet string taste I get from the other models long or short. :(

Just tried it again now after laying on my table several days. Same thing, can't even handle 50/50.

I guess I'm giving up on that whole mess (again) until they can convince me of some sort of newer technology. I'll just stick with my DCTs until my Genesis gets here.

Trav, I still use the ce4's and the "Ultimate" ce2's, I have to give favor to the ce2's really. The ce4's are so easy to use, but the flavor and hit on this version of ce2 is so "atty like". They ALL frustrate me, but I still need the alternative to feeders and dripping. The tank part of the Mark T is an epic fail, hoping to get the Bulli to use the tank as it reportedly performs extremely well. Always feel like I'm searching for the "best" sigh.

I gave my neighbor a couple of my 510 batteries, 2 chargers (cause we all know how fast those things go!) a couple of cartos all loaded up with 24mg of menthol, some extra juice in 12mg and 24.

Her eyes were glazed over with the lesson. But she really really wants to quit.

I warned her it's not as easy as smoking.


*snort* biggest understatement of the year
