Yep, "they" thought it was the wild west before 8/8!? [emoji23]

Now is the wild west! Wait until we have get on the tor network to buy stuff. Or only be able to create accounts on sites with referrals.

Man this reminds of the cigar buying days.... Cubans were easy to get if you knew how.

It truly is a sad state of affairs now. :(

We've had a stray cat around here for the last year, we've been putting food and water out and gave him a warm place to sleep in the winter. We've talked to everyone around here and no one owns him. We did find out there is another couple who also feeds and shelters him. I took him up to a county low cost spay and neuter program today to get him fixed, looked over and shots. This isn't a big city, smaller rural town, I was shocked by the number of abandoned cats and dogs they had there, it was sad. I had no idea it was that big of a problem around here, God Bless those volunteers I meet today, they said they are just overwhelmed. I was hoping they would help place him in a home, they said maybe in a couple of months but right now they just can't take anymore, unless there was no other choice. Looking more and more like we'll have to take in yet another stray, lost count of how many have showed up here over the last 30 years and ended up staying. As Bob Barker use to say..... Please support your local spay and neuter programs!

Yeah, but ehhh, we alas are the minority, even among vapers. The vast majority of vapers will adapt to whatever the market becomes.

The FDA has succeeded in stifling innovation and momentum, at least domestically. Even if some of the current lawsuits are successful, it will never be the same again. I am sure China will eventually attempt work around solutions. However, the vast majority of vapers will/could not be bothered.

This is the beginning of a new era in vaping, and yes, it is a sad state of affairs........

We have heard the term "Game Changer" used and abused in our circles for a long time now, this truly is a "Game Changer".

The part that makes me mad as hell is you know damn well these regs will keep smokers from moving to vaping. For our government to take money and power over lives, that's just freaking unforgivable, they'll live with the bloods on their hands. I pray someone they love doesn't die from cancer caused by smoking, how would they be able to look themselves in the mirror? What will they have to say for themselves on judgement day? Evil b......s.

The founding Fathers are rolling over in their Graves :(
America is officially ruled by Corporations
Boil this down to what it really is, BT wants you to Smoke weather you like it or not!
Oh you found a good anti smoking tool, it's no longer Legal!
Reminds me of back in the 90's When the Car companies were buying Electric Cars & destroying them :(

The TM is a great micro mod. It's the only non-Evolv mod that I like. I have a serpent mini on top and it's a great stealth mod.
It was your raving about this mod that make me want to give it a go. Been using Nugget Gold Rush kit & Nugget V2 w/ Trace kit lately for Evaluation Review and they are cute little mods. Got me thinking about your raving about Target Mini & I just had to try it at that price.

What's worse is the batteries that were/are defective are the ones made by Samsung! The "good" batteries are made by ATL in China (I think). They'll refund any accessories purchase, let you keep any of the promo items received and eventually replace your phone, plus give you a $25 gift card (somewhere? Probably their online store?) The note 7 has been a complete disaster for Samsung. And with the iPhone 7 being announced Wednesday the timing couldn't be worse for Samsung. Pity... I like Samsung devices. Using a note 4 right now.

Not defending them, but Apple had a recall on the 1a USB chargers back in the day, the tiny square ones when they first came out, that's why if you have one, it should have a green dot on the plug side. That means it was an updated safe one.

I think they said 0.001 or 0.002 percentage could be defective (Note 7's)....but its a PR nightmare either way for Samsung.

@MadOzodi

Just for clarity (I have sent people the wrong half before) which one do you need (right or left in pic) and how many? PM me your mailing address please.

@mikepetro

Setting reminder on phone for 4:00pm CST to check container holding all connectors (instead of just opening up #015 or #076 and looking) to verify. Will PM my mailing address and request for yours (I'm sure we both already have each other's mailing addresses but it's too much of a PITA to go find them :D)
