Three members of congress are petitioning the FDA and FCC to regulate e-cigarette ads on radio, claiming they are directly targeting teenagers.

I'll save the posting of the entire article because the above sentence encapsulates it completely. But there is one line I found quite interesting:

The Department of Justice has said that broadcasters can air e-cigarette commercials without running afoul of federal law barring tobacco advertising because they simply aren’t “cigarettes” as defined by a 48-year old federal law.
- Inside Radio, November 7, 2013.​

One other interesting (from a radio revenue standpoint) point... E-Cig advertisers ran over 7000 radio ads between 10-21 and 10-27 2013. We are a growing force.

Also... I have not heard ONE e-cigarette commercial that specifically targets teens. They ALL take the "healthier alternative to smoking" angle.

I was gifted a very nice Nimbus Clone, a Chimbus, by a Tree Person. It looks beautiful on my Shiny Chrome Vamo. It is 2.7 ohms and I'm vaping my new Butterscotch juice. Lots of flavor and lots of vapor too.
Thanks for the gift and great vape!


Bet I know Who that "Tree Person" is . . . :facepalm: :thumbs:

Update for those of you that remember my whining: one day shy of 2 full months and I finally got my refund for undelivered batteries from that place in China (after 3 weeks of asking for it).

E-cig propaganda mill... here's some better than usual news: More evidence e-cigs may help in quitting tobacco | Reuters

Someone should check their mail later today. You know who you are. ;)

I mixed up 3 more bottles last night, only one was a exact repeat, the others are tweaks on proven recipes. I have 3 more completely new recipes to make tonight then I'll play the push a button on the USC every 3 minutes game. Even still, I need to order more Banyan Tree before the weekend, that's one I won't even try to mimic. I'm tearing through that stuff! Delicious!

So much to do today... hopefully it will be productive and pleasant. May yours be better than mine! :)

Sweet. I don't think I've ever seen a Nimbus build with that high of a resistance. The SoCal kids would bully you. Ha! They give me grief for building between 0.7-1.2 ohms.

In my atomizer news, I'll be reviewing the Aqua by Footoon from UVO Systems. It's like a Kayfun for the SoCal set -- dual-coil capable, airier draw, and warmer vape. So far, I'm enjoying it but don't think it'll replace the Kayfun 3.1 for me.

First, I don't allow myself to be bullied. I don't give a carp what the young Turks like!.. no sub-ohm coils for me!!
Second, a benefit of being old is that I know what I like. I don't like throat hit and I don't like hot vapes, so I always vape at between 2.0 and 3.0 ohms. I use high VG because I do like lots of vapor. I get exactly what I want and I enjoy every second I'm vaping (unless I'm testing an unsuccessful trial recipe!)

The 6th circle
2 of my 3 carrying vapes today are vapetree...

I tried the Banyan Tree last night in a rebuilt mini-PT and it is mighty tasty!

Today I've switched that to Banana Banyan (no need to clean anything out making THAT switch ;-) ) and have Cherry Banyan rockin' in an Aspire.
I'll admit I don't have any in my RBAs :-(

Oh the Pinoy Punch is excellent, a little to flowery for me but my girlie loves it! A very well crafted juice...

I was bad this past month...I didn't finish any of my vapetree juices.... I was looking last night to see what I was going to order...& I noticed they are way darker.....This is the first time it's happened.....I don't know if I should put them in the fridge....I still have almost a full bottle of Dreamsicle and 2/3 Tiramisu left.....I guess I won't be ordering more yet....on the bright side I have been making my own cotton candy and it's very vapeable......I wanted to get some butterscotch....but I guess it will have to wait a few more weeks since I don't want it all to get dark.....(I know it's OK, but it's not pretty in my tank).....
