Hi

[Bluzeman]

Well, I guess I'm new. Only been vaping for a little over a month. I love it though! Went from 2 1/2 packs a day to 5 cigarettes the very first day. Within a week I was down to 1 a day, and had my last one 5 days ago.

Started with a Tornado Passthrough a friend gave me for Christmas. I tried the ones sold locally last fall, 75 dollars for one kit, and more, don't remember how much more, for the other one. Threw both away within a week. And because of that bad experience, I would have never bought another one if I didn't get the one I have now as a gift.

I go by Bluzeman, because I'm a blues fan, in case anyone was wondering. Has nothing to do with a certain e-cig company.

Hello, welcome & well done Bluzeman
I'm also a tad partial to blues - well trad blues anyway like John Lee ...... etc

 

[Bluzeman]

Oh yeah, John Lee was awesome! Boom Boom is one of my favorites!

Son House was great too, and Bukka White. And of course the King himself, B.B. Don't get me wrong, I like SRV, ZZ Top, and a lot of the newer blues but there's nothing like the guys that really "made" the blues!

 

[texasgranny]

Welcome and glad to have you.
Keep on reading and learning. There is still alot to do and try!

 

[parkchanwoo]

Your friend saved you life. That is one good friend you have. Blues are awesome, especially to study to.

 

[rmpetty]

Welcome, there are a lot of great people here. I just keep reading & reading & learn a little more every day. I'm so happy with my new experience and this forum that I bet I've emailed at least a dozen friends and relatives so far.

 

[Chrissie]

And not forgetting Robert Johnson & so many others

Also do love a lot of the newer blues - especially Eric Clapton unplugged

Lol, sorry for going so off topic Sorry to hear you got done via expensive locally (mall?) sold e-cigs But glad to hear you have now found a good one

 

[unsure]

Welcome and enjoy while you learn...btw Im big Blues fan too!

 

[pkj]

That is a wonderful friend that gave you this gift

Glad you found us. It's nice to meet you,
Happy Vaping,
Paula

Yeah, he's a good friend. We go way back.

I quit smoking 6 years ago for 3 years, and like a fool, had a bad day and thought I could have just one cigarette. Dumb move. Was up to a pack a day again in a week. I have heard it's harder to quit the second time, and I really believe it.

My experience last fall was bad. Cheap junk from a local tobacco store. But when I finally got the right gear (My stuff came from Totally wicked, but there are others that sell the same things) I found I liked the ecig more than smoking.

Oh Robert Johnson...I bought the box set with the small book about him. His playing and singing have so much emotion, it's awesome! And Blues are never a derail!

Thanks for the welcome everyone, seems like a friendly place!

 

[unsure]

We are friendly people. My advice to noobies once they have had their first starter kit is the next upgrade should be a intermediate price mod. You should know if vaping is your thing and if it will keep you from smoking. I say dont take baby steps after your starter kit has worn out its welcome....sorry if others disagree just my experience & opinion...nuff said about e-cigs lets talk blues My fav is a local friend ...Tommy Castro...google him.

 

[Bluzeman]

Oh I agree! I have pretty much done just that. I'm probably not saving a penny by not smoking right now, but that's only cause I'm having so much fun with the new hobby.

Yeah, blues, always the best subject to discuss. I'll check out Tommy, thanks!

Yeah you and most of us wont save any money vaping but will be much healthier. Those signatures you see at the bottom of some posters...I HAVE NOT SMOKED XXXXX CIGARETTES AND SAVED XXXXXX$....what a joke.

we are all in the same boat.

happy vaping
