Howdy,

My fellow Vapor's. Just a note to introduce myself. Wasur is my game handle you can find me most evenings playinf EvE online. I live in Melbourne Florida. I am 51 and have been smoking since I was a young kid. I grauduated to Camel non filters at 16 had been smoking pack and a half to two packs a day. I have COPD, when I say I have tried evrything i'm not kidding. A few years ago I was literally wearing a patch chewing nic gum and smoking at the same time. Nothing worked for me. Two years ago I tried Chantix it actually worked for 6 months, but I gained 100 pounds. Then couldnt handle the cravings and started smoking again.

How I founs E-Cigs. So we went to Orlndo to go to thr Boston Lobster feast, not as yummy as it sounds. Anyway we went to the mall and while watching my Wife shop I saw the oddest thing a kiosk with people smoking a guy grabs and says u gotta try this. I did and somehow left there $200 us poorer. Well I was excited but alas it was a terrible experience. The liquid was nasty the carts didnt last long and dont get me started about the batteries. But I will have to admit it's the best $200 I ever spent because I knew this was the answer just had the wrong one. So I spent the next few days googling everything there was about vaping. To my ammusement I found TW which is just across the state from me. I imidately googled them and came accross the Tornado I must have watched 100 youtube movies about the different devices. I ordered my Tornado and some juice was still gun shy from previous experience so didnt order enough juice. I am totally blown away I have smoked only a couple analogs since. In fact I ran out of juice and carts today picked up my analogs and dont even like them compared to my Vape. Needless to say I am driving to TW on Monday Morning no time to wait for USPS to get here. I found out about ECF through TW site and youtube vids. I want to become an active member of this awesome movemnet to save people from themselves and the Tobacco companies lies. I will admit I was a little disappointed when I signed the petition and it said I was like 3214 or something. I can't believe its not in the tens of thousands. So I ask all the new peeps to sign it please before my rights of a better life are taken away. Sorry for the short Novel. But Thabk You for this awesome forum.

Cheers and Blessings,
Wasur:toast:

Congratulations on finding your tornado man. I have an eGo which is the same thing so i totally know how you feel..i just got mine yesterday. And i have indeed signed that petition...and i also encourage ANYBODY reading these forums to sign it - we can't let the FDA take this amazing device away from those of us who haven't been able to give up smoking otherwise.

and lol @ eve online...i am still training 2 pilots but i haven't played that game in a long long time. Got tired of some crappy fleet commander costing me isk faster than i could make it.

Hey Wasur, a friend of mine in Melbourne (I lived there for 10 years, owned a bar, still have a house there) got a PV at the Mall and she said she hates the Carts etc....I am trying to find out what brand and model they sell at the mall there so I can set her up with some good cartos and juice. Do you remember what you bought there?

WASUR! WASSUP???? LOL...I am 50 and smoked marlb reds since age 9, ick...I hear you, I tried a few times to quit, but it's hard to dump your best friend huh? lOL...but this, after 12 days now, I have not touched, thought of or wanted an analog, best thing since color tv eh? LOL...Boston Lobster Feast? In FLA??? ick....(I'm from Boston, near Cape Cod) it's like when I lived in Denver and they advertised "fresh frozen maine lobster"..LOL...anyhow...GLAD to hear you are doing sooo awesome...it is the right place and I hear you on the everyone sign the petition, ok, guilty as charged, I haven't signed yet only with this in mind....I don't want them to take my baby away! I'm fearful, in my own mind, with the FDA doing shipment seizures, that this will all go away and I don't know WHAT I would do!!!!! I'm watching my hubby trying to quit cold turkey and he is miserably flayling along (don't fret, I got an ego starter kit coming and he can use the 510 set I have now....he says he doesn't want to try it, but just watch, a little beer juice and he'll be loving me more! hee hee)....so honestly a little nervous to bring our hidden community to the worlds eyes...LOL...selfish? yeah...:O(...but for good reason....if the Gov. really looks into it, they'll find some way to tax the crap out of it so we're back to what smoking is expensive and then they'll find some way to make it unhealthy so we'll rely on prescriptions to keep their pharmacutical buddies fat and wealthy...oh, this could go on and on...LOL...

I really wanted to say HI and WELCOME! and congrats on sticking with it!

I couldn't agree with you more.

There was another petition over a year ago that got 13,000 signatures before they closed it.
But this petition is far more important than that one was.

Just click on the banner in my signature below to sign.
