Hi Im Gil

Actually Im married 40 years with son who died while in the military and now have 2 great grandkids living with us. Born and raised in California. Worked as a electronic tech in one form or another for HP then EA. Quit smoking about 2 years...and addicted to vaping.....THE END!

 

[becky127]

Hi, I'm Becky. I live in NW Arkansas. Born and raised in Nebraska (go Cornhuskers), Colorado 13 years, California 10 years, and now Arkansas 14 years. Married 39 years, one daughter (28) married with 2 adorable little girls (3 months and 2 1/2 yrs) who live 23 miles from us. Smoked forever and then found ECF and have been vaping for 6 months. Tried everything to quit smoking and only ego's and reo minis did the trick. Couldn't be happier with the choice. Only problem....can't stop vaping. I'm 58 and don't look a day over 79. Really enjoy Justified, Better With You, The Middle, Modern Family, and Human Target. Life is good.

 

[Filthy-Beast]

Hi, I'm Drew. I live in the Chicago area, married with 3 kids. The oldest is SGT in the Marines. The youngest is a senior in HS. I've smoked for over 35 years, love vapping and not smoking for the last month. As you can see from my avatar I like to drive off-road, it's and adrenaline rush at 3mph.

 

[pianoguy]

I'm Brad, and I must be a REO-holic, based on a co-worker shaking his head when he saw 2 Mini's and a Grand on my desk today. I've been happily married for 10 years - we have our 35th anniversary coming up in a couple months. When I'm not busy vaping, I've been known to play something resembling golf, tinker with my old Corvette, and do internet music collaboration (I play keys).

Here are some tunes I've done with people from all over the planet:
Other Collaborations

And here are a few pics of the Vette - I'm itching to bring it home from winter storage in a few weeks:

Hi everyone...Great thread Deb !

I'm Pammie, ( Pamela Ann when my mother was ...... ) Live in Tennessee, surrounded by valleys, hills and mountains I have a 29 year old son named Jordan. Live alone with 2 adorable dogs Melvin and Bessie Bagle. Smoked since i was 15 until october 3, 2009...then i found this wonderful world of Vaping.

I work long hours for the city, hope to retire in about 7 years. I read alot, love antiques ( anything old like me ) Watch Survivor and the Amazing Race when theyre on Tv.

Like Deb, i also have RA...had it since i was 30. On a new regiment of meds so hoping they kick in really soon.

Everyone here has become like a second family and I cherish everyone I've met and laughed with on this glorious Reo Thread.

** Friends are gifts you give yourself **

 

[stravaigin]

I'm Alisanne and I've already shot my mouth off here more than I ever have online. I retired about 18 months ago and am just getting used to the freedom of being able to say whatever I like again without jeopardising my business. I was an Adjudicator and Choreographer and ran a large Dance studio for 24 years till I got too old, too stiff and waaay too heavy lol One of my students went on to appear on Baywatch and some others have done well in the dance world and about 5 now have their own studios. Prior to that I worked for the Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service. I'm separated but we never bothered getting a divorce because we're still best friends and have two sons and one daughter and two grandkids. I've never had online friends before and am totally fascinated about who you all are. I'm never quite sure what is appropriate to ask or if I'm stepping over some invisible line. I'd really like to know how Rob became Redeyedancer. I learnt how to make peppermint bark because I became a Reonaut! We'd never heard of it and it was a huge Christmas success.

 

[Jack Murray]

Hmm, okay! I'm Jack, a female Jack! 45 years old, bipolar, agoraphobic, but still extroverted! =) My background is Hungarian (like Bela Lugosi! Bluh bluh!) and German. I've been with my husband Brad for 17 years, married for 3 of those. I have a black lab and 3 cats and I spoil them all to heck. Brad is the primary breadwinner, and works as a software engineer with a transit company that makes subway trains and systems all over the world.

I like classic movies and unusual movies; pretty much all kinds of music is cool with me and if it's not I will usually run over and throw the radio on the floor; I am a great cook and love to eat too. My idea of exercise is a dog walk or a good brisk sit. =) Because of my agoraphobia, most of my friends are online friends, and many have been friends for many many years. I eat a lot of plain popcorn, vape a lot of fruity and bakedy flavours, I am a REO addict obviously. I haven't worked for many years, but when I did I did a number of things, particularly stage management, lighting technician, sound technician, stage carpentry, bartending, doing propane installations on cars, aaand probably a few other things that slip my mind at the moment. =) I play the electric bass guitar, some acoustic guitar, some concertina... basically I play a little bit on a lot of instruments but not really well on any of them. =D Original Girl Gamer/Geek, used to run unix before it was cool.

I haven't used analogs in... 18 years now! For me, I just love nicotine, and taking up vaping was a concious choice for me. It also turned out to be a very good thing for my mood disorders, because since I started, I feel about 1000% better. The nicotine just gives me this extra energy bump that took my medication to a good level. I discovered there is actually lots of research about nicotine and mood disorders, and my pdoc approves of the whole thing. So, I'm a happy camper, after many years of not really being very happy at all. I look forward to a few years more. =)

My favourite colour is purple (haha), my favourite food is CARBS, my favourite pets are usually black. =) My favourite planet is Neptune! =D

PM me for any further information, or if you want me to shut the heck up.

 

[debb]

lmbo! jack....

hi everyone, glad to meet you..

 

[Mudflap]

My screen name is Mudflap. My friends in high school started calling me that to make fun of my ear lobes. They said my ears were comparable to the mudflaps on 18 wheeled tractor-trailers.

I typed a lot more stuff, but it was too much, so I cut it from here and posted it as a blog entry.

Viva el Reo!

 

[Jack Murray]

Actually, my favourite planet is Saturn. I hope this doesn't change our relationship any, folks. =D

 

[Brad Murray]

I'm Brad J. Murray, a 45-year-old researcher for a major transportation automation and defense company. Jack has described me as a software engineer, and that's certainly a big part of my work though it used to be more. I'm also a game designer and have published a tabletop (not computer!) role-playing game with a few friends and am having a pretty good time in the very small scale publishing business. We've been very successful for an indie title and won a couple of awards for our work.

You'll find me around the net under the nick "Halfjack" a lot of the time and the reasons for that are not only obscure but, if you think you know the reason, even more obscure than that.

My favourite planet got demoted.

[flying low]

I'm Sylvia. 50 years old and can still outwork the 20 somethings at work .. heh. I am a supervisor for a ground handling company at SFO Airport. We handle international cargo 747's.
I've got a 28 year old daughter who gave me a wonderful grandson who is now 4. I lost my son in 2004 who would have been 33 this year.
I started vaping August 2009 - still smoke analogs though. Unlike most, I picked up the vaping to get my nic fix while working around the aircraft (absolutely no smoking around the planes). I have cut down on the analog use since I started vaping which is shocking to everyone, even me.
My better half jumped on the vaping wagon with me for the same reasons and he has cut down to 3-5 analogs per day.
My favorite things are: my grandson, my better half, my daughter, my 15 year old cat and my mods.
My favorite shows are: NCIS, NCIS LA, Fairly Legal, Royal Pains, Leverage
I love Disney animated films, action movies and the occasional romantic comedy

 

[Nyxie]

Well I will jump in. I am Jackie. I am married to Dave. I am 39. I have 3 bio kids, all girls 23, 14 and 4. I also have 2 bonus kids, one lives with us, she just turned 18 the other is 15 and lives with his Mom.
I love vaping, classic cars and UFC. I like to cook but never get to cook anything interesting, no one here likes anything good. I like all music, but my favorite is classic rock. I usually talk to much for my own good too but I will stop now.

 

[TennDave]

Well, it's late at night and I should go to bed but here I am.
Here is a picture of me when I got my first Reo (mini) in early January!


My name is Dave...I turn 51 this month. I am a weird critter- born and raise in Japan by missionaries.
Came to the states when I was 18...rebelled and started smoking.
Smoked for all of my adult life getting up to 2 packs a day (sometimes more on certain occasional).
Quit once when my wife was pregnant for a couple of years but started back.
I tried to quit several times but it progressively got harder.
Then, this past December, I discovered e-cigs... bought a 510 kit but it was a hassle.
Found the Reo...the rest is history!!

I have been a principal of the only fully accredited Japanese high school here in the U.S. (of all places TN). Now, I work as a school psychologist for the local school system.
My interests are in vaping and Volvo's (we own 3 right now- have owned several before these)
Musically, I love most everything except opera and twangy country- I go to the Bonnaroo Music Festival every year!

I love a good laugh and making others laugh! Oh, and I have ADD (used to be ADHD but not so hyper these days- I think that happens with age)... I think vaping helps my ADD considerably! It's a good thing
Guess that's about it!
