Tried moving into a thread once. Small but comfortable. Wasn't long before some Provarini started coming out of the wood work. Wasn't long before the place was over run and I was back out in the cold.;)

For the record it's The Provarinati (coined by EddardinWinter). I have 2. They are lovely, well made...freaking battery tubes. FREAKING BATTERY TUBES. I use my Twists just as often and in some situations they are superior. I only tend to have a problem when a new member is asking about a getting a Spinner or a Twist and are told they need to get a Vamo because VW is better than VV. When you get down to it, they operate the same way - you press button(s) to get to wherever and adjust the setting up or down to what you like.

I'm sorry you got chased away. My dog isn't better than your dog. I have a cat.

ETA: I came very close to getting a Vamo, but it only came in chrome and black chrome at the time I was looking at them. That finish would last about 5 seconds in my hands.

Thanks for the citation, my diminutive feline friend.

My, but you are testy this evening. Even a small cat still has claws, so tread lightly around the Ocelot at this time, fellow posters! Not all of you are blessed with a shaggy mane to protect you when the meat hooks fly...

Is it your motorcycle? I love that blue color!

Yes that is our motorcycle and the color is called Cool Blue Pearl. When the sun hits it glitters like diamonds. We also have a 1999 softail custom but as I am growing older I prefer the luxury of a Road Glide. I just flop my ... in that big ole comfy seat turn up the music and off we go exploring.

Edd, do you have a sixth sense for when your name is mentioned?!? Man, if you do..... I could just drop your name all over the forum and just watch you chase your tail :lol:

I think he stalks me. For some reason he thinks I'm mean - probably because I'm after him for cub support.

Post count doesn't really matter. I have seen people on here that are "Veterans" that have less posts than you do at the moment.

I figure if I am posting something I could be learning something more than I already know. I will post something only if I feel it is relevant and will help someone.
I have a hard time understanding the folks that have thousands of posts in a few months time. Nothing against it of course, but I just dont know HOW you can post that many times. Just like I dont understand how my daughter was able to send 30,000 txts in a months time when she was younger. LOL

Now she starts in on me with the cub again. She never lets me see him, she won't let me teach him how to hunt. How the courts discriminate against pride males....sigh. Besides, she told me she was fixed! Now it has led to a series of embarrassing photos and phone calls.

Wait a minute! You said you were fixed, which is why your mane was thinning.

Ah to explain how I can have so fricken many posts in 6 months time.... Friendships, conversations. I think I really racked my post count when I started on the HHV thread. We became friends over a great vendor. It got so off topic sooooo much, ECF decided that we should have our own section in the Forum. Now THAT was bizarre. I went on the thread and it was in the E-liquid section and while I was there we got moved!!!! I opened the door and OMG we were in the Groups section! It didn't hurt a bit. I thought I should have at least felt like Dorothy, in the Wizard of Oz, when the house is in the air twirling around.....

I also think there are times when I do have something intelligent to add...... I hope.... I think... Well that explains my post count.... Sorta....kinda. :blush:
