My Bride and I both used to barrel race in saddle clubs. I tried amateur rodeo for a couple of years until my buddy got killed at it. It's good to hear you've still got cowboys working with kids there. Sure keeps them out of trouble. They'll be too tired to get into any lol. I like working with kids but went with being a Boy Scout leader for about 11 years. Had to quit when I got the bout with cancer. Got into scouting when my son was old enough and stayed with it for years after he made Eagle. Never could understand the lack of parent support and participation but if I helped one kid make good that could have gone the other way I've got my reward.

Well pard, that makes you one of my hero's!!

Its that simple, and I'd be real proud to have you as a relative!

Say cuz, could I borrow three dollars until my ship comes in?

You're right Salem, and I sorry if I offended anyone as that was not my intention.
I guess I should explain how my mom is instead of just saying her age.

Taking care of her 2 sisters with cancer pretty much sucked a ton of life out of her. She really enjoys staying at home now and isn't shy about reminding me of it! Lol I hear all the time "I'm not in my 40s like I was when you had your other 2 children. I'm 66!" I try to keep the babysitting requests to the bare minimum!!!

So in that sense mom says she's old. ;).

Noooooooooo, you silly girl! We were not offended at all. It is great that your mom is only 66 years old. That is old enough for baby sitting to be a challenge for sure.

My mom will be 78 on the 16th so, I was just kind of thinking out loud. If I get offended, I will tell you. Just ask TT if you don't believe me :laugh:

Looks like we're all headed over to the 1.2 head. My .5 went south on me today, started tasting a bit burnt last night, by today I couldn't hack the taste and swapped it out. I'm guessing the Tres Leches is a coil killer no matter what I run it in. What a shame, I did fall in love with the flavor, but I'm kicking it to the curb like a cheatin' husband! The 1.2 is cooking along nicely at 13v with my Butterscotch Cream.

Tracy, you made me look at our weather....ARRRGGGGG!! Looks like you'll have a little more out of this one than me, but DAYUM I'm tired of snow! 1-3" for us tonight and into tomorrow morning. Be careful and don't hesitate to cancel work if need be :wub:

TT, I'm not sure exactly where you are in Yeast Texas, but there was a Cowboy Church near Glen Rose when I lived in Granbury, Tx. Used to drive by it when I'd run over to Cleburne.

I'm 70 and I lold. I know what she means about taking care of cancer patients. Oct. 2013 my Bride was diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer. I had been through cancer 8 years ago. Taking care of her was much worse than my own. When it's someone you love it's both emotional and physically draining.

LOL, dahlin,' I seriously doubt if you offended anyone around here.

After what your mom's been though I can only give her my sincere admiration and to tell her to enjoy being at home. She's earned it.

And of course, she gave the world a real sweetie pie called 908Tracy, and we appreciate her for that too.

And they say age is just a number and that's true. I know guys who are my age and look old enough to be my daddy!

Naturally, I'm cuter than all get-out and I attribute it all to clean living, good behavior and a young attitude!

I just have old knees.

Holy man, is salem ever telling you the truth there.

We've been on-line friends for a good five years and sometimes its fun to tick her off just to get the .... chewing I probably deserve!

Its good for a man to have a good ol' feminine type .... chewing every once in a while.

Keeps our adrenaline flowing!

Cowboy Churches are popular down this way and I'm familiar with the one at Glen Rose. Its a big one and real nice.

My N.E.T's are atty killers but the flavor is awesome. I just use them only in rebuildables and change out the wick, dry burn the coil and wash when the flavor starts heading south. Only takes about 10 minutes once or twice a week. They don't really hurt the coil, just the wick.

I really gotta learn myself how to build them :blush: I still have 60ml sitting next to me saying, "Vape meeee....you know you wanna!!"

No offense here, but I'm still a spring chicky at 55. Tomorrow would have been my Mom's 80th birthday, she lost her battle with breast cancer in 2002. Katie will be 82 this year :)

Hey TT, since you brought up the cutie pie thing, you missed 75 here about a month ago. I got an email from her out of the blue and next thing I knew, she found me here. It was so good to hear from her.

Man oh man!! 757girl in the red dress!

I've thought of her many times and wondered how she was doing. Last time we talked she sounded real happy and I think her life was going well.

Those floaters really make good fertilizer. Huge tomatoes. Some even come with their own seeds. You're lucky to have such a great address.

Night y'all. Hope everybody has bodacious dreams.

I bet that he would sell you a piece of that land and let you be his neighbor. If the price is right. Not sure that he would share the floaters though.

The stuff we have to do for good flavor. I am waiting for someone to come out with a self cleaning coil/wick. That will be next.

Well, I have a decent supply of some of the best flavors made and I think that's why I'm stuck on the Delta tanks and Nautilus. They are just right for the flavors I have and do them justice.

Oh, I've seen a number of comments around the 'net about a wonky activation switch on the iStick 50 watt mods. And I had the same problem. I'd have to fire it twice to get it going and even then it just wasn't up to par.

So, I started experimenting. Finally ended up with Nautilus tanks on the 50 watters and the Delta's on 30 and 20 watters.

And now the iStick 50 watts work perfectly. No more problem.

I really don't know why that would make any difference, but it does. The 50 watt iSticks work perfectly now and are doing a grand job!
