I went out drinking with some friends last night. It was the first time taking my new stainless steel 510 out with me, and I expected to be doing a lot of explaining to curious drunks about my new toy.

This particular bar is one of the few establishments around here that still allows smoking, so I didn't think I would stick out too much.

After only an hour I had already explained my 510 to about 20 curious people. I didn't mind but at this point I sort of just wanted to be left alone with my friends and the pool table.

Next thing I know I was cornered by a large fellow who looked to be straight out of Deliverance. He got uncomfortably close and in his whiskey soaked breath stammered "What's that battery thing you're smoking on?". Well at this point I was a little buzzed and more than a little tired of explaining.

I proceeded to tell Larry the Cable Guy that I was from the future, and what I held in my hand was a flux compacitor. He gave me this strange look. I don't know how to describe it. Sort of like I was walking through a Baby Gap with my ****** hanging out.

I sort of liked the attention when I first had my e-cig. I rather enjoyed explaining it and maybe even converting a few people, but now I find myself getting more annoyed at the constant demonstrations I have to give.

I think the next time I'm out to a bar I'll just pass out the extra business cards I get with my orders. = /

I have made up a card that I print on brochure weight paper and cut into the size of a small playing card. I have a one paragraph explanation of a PV on one side and on the other side have the web address of ECF, a couple of other informational web sites and about 4-5 reputable suppliers web sites. I always keep 5-6 in my pocket and some in the car just for these occassions.

Thankfully you didn't have to break out your guitar and play "Dueling Banjos" 8-o
