Trying to keep the button like new will mean perpetual cleaning. If you insist, mothers or Autosol .
*sending a brother 1 white glove.....


Oh wait, buy a pinkie/finger condom. Like Cuccos assistents use when flipping through money or paperwork.

I'm confused & I think I'll blame you for it. There was a lot of glowing talk about Nevr Dull. Got some but haven't used it on anything. Has it been replaced already with Mother's or Autosol?

Strippers!!!

 

[newyork13]

You clearly have one, and I know you'll be well.

cliffy15: RE PIC: Congrats on your immortalization! RE KIT: Aren't we all, just a handy dandy bunch?

They scheduled me for a brain CT scan. I suppose, they want to see if I still have one. I am anxious to hear the results.

The fireworks had my cats stressed. So, we had a catnip party! All is good!

It cooled off here a bit tonight. If I sleep, it will be more comfortable. Cool!

I hope my GP Family has a wonderful holiday weekend!

 

[newyork13]

Wonderful words, both of you.
What is that old Islamic saying? Something like: live each day as if it were your last, live each day as if you'll live a thousand years.

Well said. I don't do the God thing, but the great outdoors I grew up in and spent much of my life in has always been my guide and nature my personal sanctuary.

I have survived a lot of things I shouldn't have, but I won't survive one from the '60's that has come back into my life... In July 2008 I was diagnosed with five cancers attributed to my Vietnam service. A couple of minor surgeries, then a fairly serious one they botched here meant I had to fly to San Diego on less than 24 hour notice for a major one to save my life. They really butchered me fixing it and the supposed 10 day ordeal turned into 6 1/2 weeks in the hospital there just recovering from the damage they did. I was told then I probably wouldn't survive another full year. Had I known what the ramifications were going to be, I'd have just let the cancers take me then. No one counted on me then, no one does now. That surgery changed my life forever, or I should say ended my life as I had known it completely due to the issues/handicaps they left me with. There wasn't time to do any treatments before the surgeries, chemo/radiation/drugs, and I chose not to do any of them after. And I decided I will never let them cut me again. I'm still here, I guess the devil doesn’t want me yet. As I said I've practiced MOM most of my life. It works very well for me and helps completely block the intense pain I am always in without drugs ( I have refused to take pills, use drugs, etc all of my life). After a routine 5+ year surgery follow up CT Scan a few weeks ago I finally agreed to do as a favor to my doctor radiology scheduled me for a MRI for the pancreatic cancer they still think I have. I didn't go, I don't want to know and will just let nature take its course this time. I choose to be alone, but what is left of my life is driven by a strong inner peace. I happily live each day the fullest I can and as if it will be my last. I’m plenty good with that, I've lived a more than full life and it's been a fantastic one. There’s a favored remote high mountain meadow waiting for my ashes, my son will see to it, and that keeps a smile on my face.

If your mind has peace, and your heart has a smile... It's all good...

I like you! Sending you good vibes as well! Take care!

Since early childhood, my 'happy place' was in the woods in the mountains. For me, it doesn't get much better than that.

I hope all of you are having a wonderful day, relaxing or having a nice time with family , friends or both. I on the other hand am NOT. Our neighbors have had a part going on since early in the day. It has been non-stop LOUD , screaming , yelling, and the type of loud bass, electric pop , dance music . I feel like im in a spring break nightmare...... My nerves are shot, Im shaking, I can barely breathe......

 

[kscoggins]

Quick, get this lady a xanax!
I've actually got more quiet time than I have in forever... Wife is up in Detroit with family, kids are with their mom... I'm not used to quiet...

 

[kscoggins]

I need a new atty, I'm thinking of a squape or taifun... Any other suggestions? I really like SS and glass...

Also I have enough drippers, rba Cartos, and and still working on genesis type devices...

I was thinking about both of those too. The Squape Reloaded goes up on Vaperev at 11am PST tomorrow. It looks nice.
I'm also looking at the Aethertech Orchid -- it's a chimney-type tank atty that looks pretty promising. I just bought a 454 dripper and a Plume Veil, so I really don't need to be spending any more money.

The best way to remedy this is to go over with a bottle of vodka and a ton of red bull... Let's Party!!!

My friend,
I can't follow up with words that come close to telling you how much this post means to me personally.
It has kept me silent and away from posting today.
We aren't to far away physically, I hope to get to visit with you. We have many places and hobbies in common. Many of your thoughts parallel my stance on living and where I choose to be mentally.
Perseas's response tops it off perfectly. Thank you Perseas for the perspective you share and your insight. Love you man.
Spydro, you deserve the Badge of Honor and I too am proud to have had the conversations we have shared. If I were next to you, I would hug you like the man you are deserves.
I think I'll go read on and off the rest of tonight.
What a magical thread some days.

Same here. Born and raised in the High Rockies the lofty alpine environs of mountains provided more enjoyment for me than any other habitat.

Your courage and strength is inspiring, sir. You are not alone in spirit.

My places of inner peace are at the ocean or Yosemite. These places serve to remind me of just how insignificant I am. I'm not a big fan of the rain but one of the things that I do love about Pacific NW is the proximity to the mountains and the ocean.

Everybody has courage. What some folks have to deal with just to get through everyday life takes more than I have. I am fearless though. Been a very long time since I was at Yosemite, probably 45 years or so years ago, and the last time in Portland late 80's. Both are beautiful places. For 9 years of my life the ocean was my sanctuary, most of it along the CA coast when I lived in the San Francisco Bay area and down the coast in Carmel. I was a diver, for a while a marine biologist for the state, but always an ocean fisherman.

if you survived 4 airplane crashes, you are doing the God thing weather you know it or not. May you continually receive God's Blessing.

Those are your beliefs my friend, not mine. Enough said.

I was listening and watching the fireworks from my house and started thinking about how the earth might look from space during fireworks. I did not find any for the 4th, but found this cool satellite footage of above earth view of new years eve at midnight all around the world.

 

[kscoggins]

back when I was traveling all the time, there were a few times when I was on an airplane on July 4th and it was very cool seeing all the fireworks from the air.

I can't say enough about the squape. It has put my kayfun and russians back in the cabinet. I'm seriously considering buying a Lux X just for the squape. I love that you can tweak your builds and re-wick without draining out the e liquid. It's only downfall is no adjustable afc. I solved this problem with a hippo on a Provari, and my build for the one on my vaporshark.

It looks like the new squape will have afc built in and be 22mm rather than 23. I'm loving my original Squapes though and they can be picked up via classies for 100$ or under. Worth every penny. The only attys I prefer over it are the heron and spheroid.

 

[darksparkle13]

OMG I was only gone for a few days... 75 Pages..... Wowsas I hope each and everyone of you had a safe and happy 4th.
no to start at the begining!

 

[darksparkle13]

thats sexy!

 

[Pathology]

Lol all good. I'm crazy busy today anyway, so it gives me something to look forward to

Also, I finally got around to finishing my mirror finish on my Paps X, and it looks STUNNING! I'm so pleased with it. I can't wait to mix and match with the brushed finish when it gets here!

I'll post a pic soon . I was in my boxers only when I took the first picture and you could see me half naked from the reflection in the mod... THAT'S how polished I got it lmao... I took another pic though, so don't worry xD

Forgot to post the pic lol.

Here it is! Final result!



I'm in love <3

I second this, although I prefer the Taifun GT. It technically has AFC if you get the extra airtubes for it. Plus it has a bunch of different tanks for it and nano kits and it can be converted to a dripper when you want.....all at an extra cost of course, but it can be done. I prefer the looks of the TGT over the Squape as well...but that's subjective. And you can also rewick/coil without having to dump your juice on the TGT just like the Squape.

I've used both, and you can't go wrong with either. My TGT is a daily driver though, if that says anything. But at the end of the day, buying either...you can't lose. I'd just pick the one that looks better to you, unless the extras that the TGT comes with are something you're interested in..in which case get that one.

I work in healthcare, we can't smoke or vape on property. If we want to, we are supposed to clock out (for lunch) and leave the property. As of this year, they also went so far as to not hire any one who smokes/vapes. They are giving nicotine tests to potential new hires.

WHAT?!?!?!? nicotine tests to new hires, what does that have to do with anything? and you have to clock out to vape? this is truly insane.
