I do believe that I have thanked all of those that made my starting to vape So Very Much Easier. You guys went through a lot of trial and error. We have all of you to thank for keeping at it and figuring out a better way to vape.

I bow to you! :wub:

Me as well.

I'm 5287!
Wow, that's kind of amazing.

You are 5287 and I am 12220 but we were only one month apart.
That means that membership more than DOUBLED in that small time frame.

That might be the period of the fastest growth as a percentage in forum history!!
I'm not sure how cool that would be, but it feels like it might be kinda cool.

I remember leaving the house without my pistol, felt naked.but got over it....After I started vaping in 2008/2009 I remember driving back home 20 miles to grab my gear ( had one ego and a dripping atty but that wouldn't last all day) and the sense of security,and relief that I wouldn't be tempted to buy a pack of red's........Moral of the story, I needed my ego allot more than my gun;) , Now, my Vape gear and my Glock are in the same bag....

I do remember old days when whiskey were sweeter, girls fatter, and vaping was for quitting smoking.
Very true about " vaping was for quitting smoking" the other week I went to our community pool and seen about 6 teenagers , all were vaping massive set ups and blowing major clouds. Since I was also vaping there was conversation, they came over to ask if I knew any tricks, but once they seen my mtl device , they kind of lost interest. Anyways i asked them if any use to smoke and only one said yes, but had only done it on occasion. So yes , all basically vaped (they vaped between 3 & 12 mg nic) just for tricks and clouds

It may have stopped them getting into the stinkies though.
Yesterday I was having preventative maintenance done on my truck.

Got to having a reminiscent discussion with the shop manager.

As he smokes back to back cigs he mentions he's peeved about his 15 yr old son vaping.

Says the boy doesn't even use nicotine.

Says he doesn't understand, the boy never even smoked.

He just does it to show off.

:blink:

I mention it's a whole lot safer alternative.

Then point out that with dad as the prime example, without vaping he'd likely be a smoker.

He says "yeah, but what's next?".

Says if someone vaping was able to influence him, he'll be faced with peer pressure again.

And how's that going to go?

Valid point. It's his kid.

Except we're not there yet and dad is already pushing him away being stubborn and angry.

This should be a time of open discussion.

The first "mistake" has already been made. On both parts.

And the boy has already been hiding the least harmful substance he could be partaking in.

There's a barrier there that needs to be broke down lest the boy get too deep into the next substance for dad to help.

At least this one is nearly harmless and easy to quit.

A perfect practice run and chance for bonding and education.

Great logistical breakdown Beck!!!! Bravo:thumb:
Thank you.

My kids teach me a lot despite them not usually realising it.

My oldest especially.

He's a good kid with a big heart.

But a handful nonetheless.

Obstinate and stubborn like his parents and very emotional.
