#1 - Ahhh Monday. So I had an interview with potential client today that required me to dress professional... what a drag. So go to get dressed this morning and oh joy. Puppy got a hold of my belts and peed on my shoes this morning. The one time the closet door is open. Puppys are the best. What a great way to start the week. On top of all that. No vape mail today.

#3 I won't go into details on this medical issue, it's scary and possibly gross... there was blood involved. :ohmy: Again, it's probably taken care of, I won't know for a while.

Last week my neighbor asked me to take her to the airport on Tuesday at 7:45am, I said "no problem". This morning she says the plane leaves at 7:45 so we need to start driving at 5, it's a long drive. This will require a large dose of coffee. I don't like getting up at 4ish, I go to bed at 4ish. :p

Good news, it's lunchtime! What should one eat in celebration of MLK's birthday?

Hola TF!!

had a nice backyard bbq housewarming yesterday. had 3 little men 18-24 months running around the backyard, on the new playground (got it together just in time).
it was a blast.
we invited all the neighbors, none came. mostly due to the NFL game(s) simultaneously taking place. but we had it one inside..

im reading thru the thread,

Off to teach a local vapor how to build her Genny, engage in stimulating conversation and enjoy her premium company over a good vape.

Hope your day looks as awesome!
did, did you take your ring off?

#1 32 gauge quadruple twisted didn't work out so well. It's like ~24 gauge, takes too long to heat up. Next time I'll just go back to the regular pair of twisted 32g, it's ~ 29 gauge after twisting and I like 29g.

As a restaurant manager, I dealt with all the complaints and there were many, for large variety of reasons. When someone says they just didn't like the food, there better be more than half a plate left. If it's a hair or something that's a different matter. If not, issuing a refund/credit just encourages more of the same behavior, word gets around. Unsatisfied customers were never issued cash, just gift certificates which they could use or give away. On the other hand, a company that takes such pride in their product that they guarantee satisfaction or money back appears trustworthy to new and future customers. It's an interesting moral dilemma, which probes into the basic nature of consumerism and "western"/capitalist society. Best to not think about it if possible, it can get ugly. :2c:

Somewhat related, I once bit into a staple when eating a hamburger at a "local" dive. It was stuck in my gums, nothing minor about it. They offered a refund in gift certs. I never went back, and told my story to everyone that mentioned the place. They now have half the locations they once owned, but they still do well enough... the economy and chains did more damage than folks like myself. My knowledge of complaints and bad reviews: 1 in 10 happy customers give a review, 1 unhappy customer tells 10 their story. You can't please all the people all the time, but it's worth trying your best. Two more cents. :)

I forgot... goodmorningnight!

on my birthday this previous year, my father and step mother took us out to a really nice sushi joint. we ordered a ton of expensive sushi rolls and dishes (there were ~10 of us).
in one of the rolls, there was saran wrap. one of the ingredients was still wrapped in saran, and placed inside of the roll.
after eating a couple pieces we brought it to the staffs attention. they didnt take the roll away, and only removed that single roll from the bill.
my folks didnt seem to mind, and since it was a celebration i didnt say anything. but i would have expected more of a remedy form the restaurant.
(that was a lame story)

(wanna hear another?)

(nope__?)

y'all are MIA!

(i never use y'all)

you are all MIA!!

Built the KFL/R91% (what is this thing really!!??)
successful 1.1ohm MC with cotton ball wick. threw some extra cotton down the chimney, figured it would help.
its working well, 2 days late and i got my first dry hit w/a full tank. gotta slow my chain vaping down...
so far i am liking it.
i look fwd to a more solid build on the next one, will shoot for .9-1 ohm. i should try using 27g..


for those that are friends on the Facebooks, i posted a pic of the 3 kids on Levis new playground. give a look, and feel free (if so inclined) to post it here. (a capability i dont possess here at work)
