UGH u think that's bad!! My 1st computer had an external tape player as a hard drive. The 5 1/4 floppy external didn't come out for another 6months after that! And it ran in basic!

LOL... I remember Tape. And RPG cards on a Honeywell 66.

Heck. I've been doing this so long, when I started Porn was in ASCII.

8088 ... haha that was my first "personal" computer too. Oh man, those were the days.

Weren't they.

I remember someone in the Math department gave me a spreadsheet program. It was called "Bogus-Lotus". It came on like four 5 1/2 floppies.

It was so cool. You could total a column but if you wanted to total a row, you would get a system prompt that would say,

"Please Insert Disk #3 and Hit Enter to Continue".

Hysterical.

Oh man, I totally did that on day 1, just to see if I could...

I can, and it's... not comfortable.

Tried this also at the bar one night...not the brightest light in that dim room.

Tried to use my 510 led as my book light one night...massive headache and nausea, but finished the chapter! XD

I'll never forget what this IBM Sales Rep told me when I bought my first personal computer that had a Hard Drive in it.

------
Rep: Ok. I've got you down for a 286 with 4mb of RAM. What size hard drive to you want?

Me: What sizes are available?

Rep: You can get either a 100mb or a 200mb Hard Drive.

Me: What do you recommend?

Rep: It depends. What are you going to use the computer for?

Me: CAD/CAM

Rep: Oh, I see. I would definitely go with the 200mb hard drive. That way you will Never fill it up.

-------

Just goes to show that what sales people say isn't always true.

(Note: We were talking about Megabytes and Not Gigabytes.)

ahhh...the fond days of old! all of my Pre x86 gear was used (mostly from garage sales and flea markets), but I remember saving up for a 31 gig HD for my 286! I remember trying to find a 8087 math co-proc for my box...but at least I am in good company!
maybe I will take an old laptop HD and make a boxmod out of it...

Never let your "Drinking Buddy" take one to the bar. Lost a 510 and new XL e2...but he is now a believer, so little price paid for high gain.

Twice, now, twice. I have taken the cap off my ego tank, filled it with juice, popped it back in and took a big hit, before realizing I hadn't put the cap back on. Juice everywhere! Both times I swear it will not happen again.

This with a clear tank. I took a big pull, and as i hear the ....-like slurping, I wonder "hey why is this thing draining so fast" and SLUUUUURP, juice right in my mouth, down the battery, all up in the atomizer, big, fat mess.

another time i filled the atomizer to the brim with liquid instead of the cart, though to be fair I was extremely intoxicated.

Forgot that my EGO and bottle of juice was in my pocket and went into the Couty Court House here in Dallas. Without thinking I emptied my pockets into the tray before going through the metal detector/security check point. Had a heck of a time trying to explain it to the two deputies on duty.

Yeah I was just there a couple weeks ago.. I'd been there a million times before as a smoker, but this was the first time i went with my PV (standard 510). I just put it in the tray with my keys and my belt and they waved me on thru. . But yeah, I definitely left the juice in my pocket.. I can see why they might start asking questions then. I stealth vaped in the hallway, and when I couldn't take it anymore I went to the handicapped bathroom and VAPED MY FACE OFF! Let's just say I was stressed out..

That was a hell of a day though, had a case thrown out, and discharged from my probation a year early! Woohoo!

My Echo cartos will separate if bent at the right angle. I was picking something up and managed to separate the base from the top of the carto (for any visual learners - see here). I had topped it off recently, so I decided I would just re-assemble and vape away :2cool:!

But...
I had completely forgotten that 5 min before this, I had applied sunblock to my son. Since I didn't wash my hands, you can guess what happened... My carto and lungs are now rated at SPF50... Can't say that I'd recommend the flavor either... :blush:

Stuck my little 510 down my wrist splint to hide it from my boss. Needless to say, the button was pressed, I started jumping around like a wild woman, and my split started vaping...you should have seen me trying to explain that one to him. Luckily I had a carto on it so it didn't get too hot to burn me and my splint was damp from the hose I was using. He laughed and didn't say anything else other than to be more careful and don't get caught by another supervisor.

Only 7 days into vaping, and I've already done something stupid (maybe just absent-minded, which I'm great at, btw). I was tasting a sample I got in the mail today in a spare cartridge...I don't dare use my Boge cartos for tasting! I dripped some of the juice directly onto the atty. At this point, I normally replace the cartridge onto the atty. Not today. I stuck the atty right in my mouth and pressed the button while inhaling.

Son of a nutcracker! That hurt!
