Haven't done our taxes yet, though we should see a bit back.

I took a look at the new irs w4 tool yesterday, was going "hunh?" I had our withholding tuned well under the prior system, could count on consistently getting X back each year, would do minor fine tuning if things started to skew a bit. With the new system I have absolutely no darn idea.

Anywho, guess I'll do our taxes this weekend, then armed with the 2017 return take another look at the irs tool.

Drats, VooPoo hosed VandyVape and Tony B on the Gene chip for the Pulse 80W. It sounds like VP has done similar iffy things before. Tony posted a video detailing his take on what happened [emoji20]

There might be a bit of delay, the chip will be different, the price will likely drop.

Maybe things will straighten out. I contacted 3f to cancel my order; they got back to me tonight, said they've been in touch with both vv and vp, suggested I hang onto my order to keep an early shipping slot.

3f sells both companies' products, has no reason to provide bad information.

Today has been a totally relaxing day. I haven't been sleeping very well lately. After 4 or 5 hours of sleep last night I got up and made a cup of coffee and settled down at my desk and computer. When the NASCAR race came on I watched about the first hour of it and the next thing I knew was the tv prattering on about some kind of gadget that will make life better for me. I looked around and could not find the mouse for my laptop. I finally found it under my desk (?). I looked at the clock and realized I had zoned out for about 3 hours sitting at my desk.
Today was also my combination birthday/vapeversary. Three years ago I had set my stop date for smoking on my 60th birthday. The next day February 26th was the day I found and joined ECF. It is hard to conceive it has been 3 years since I stopped cigs and started vaping exclusively. I'm not going to say it has been an easy 3 years but all of you have made it much more tolerable and possible. Thank you, everyone, for your patience and assistance.
Trying to catch up! Happy Vaperversary/Birthday!

Vapor in the Wild sighting today!!!!!!!

I was headed home from work this afternoon, and this car pulls up along side me (I'm in the middle lane of the highway; this car is on my left in the "fast" lane) I'm ignoring, 'cause I don't like to stare. Finally I look over, and he waves his mod at me, smiles, and speeds off :D :D :D

Thanks Kenna.
You didn't miss the posts because I didn't post about it. The friends that I have here and on Facebook knew about it. A lady pulled out in front of me on my way to work on Valentine's Day and the insurance company totaled my car. I'm ok although even a month later I still have pain on occasion as a result of the accident. And I can only wish there will be no more breaking down. My "new" car is an 09 with 146,000 miles on it. After a Darwin Award comment and a few "oh, you have the worst luck comments" I very rarely post on ECF anymore. I spend most of my time on the forum that can't be named now as I don't get any judgment posts there. I still read this thread though but there's not a lot I want to comment on.

I'm sorry, Lynn.

I don't check the forum much mostly due to lack of time, and I didn't see the comments you mention, but I do assure you that you are loved here. I love you :wub:

What's in my hand, you ask? This...

If anyone knows anything about me, you'll know I love mechs, sometimes. This one is ok. Hits good, just needs a long (or adjustable 510 pin on the atty) or you're going to get a burning hot switch right away. The throw on it is practically non-existent due to the button design. The battery presses down a sleeve, the sleeve presses down the button, and your atomizer presses down the battery, which presses down the sleeve even more. Kind of unique, kind of hefty, kind of nice. I like it... A lot.

Note: Short aromizer pins are extremely dangerous - use atomizers with longer pins or adjustable pins.

Let's not forget the coffee please.

A sweet looking mod :)

I'm very happy with the latest bean from Bodhi Leaf, Nicaragua Beneficio Santa Lucila. The notes on the bag-o-beanz were "Chocolate, Vanilla", and they both come through nicely (chocolate while drinking, finishing with vanilla).

I'm seeing them. Any chance your TT settings got messed up?

You might want to try clearing cache for TT on your phone/tablet. Sometimes that fixes things.
