I haven't been here for a few days..... What U been up too?
My gold and copper batts came in today. The copper looks more like dark gold to me, but it compliments the lighter gold nicely.
Hi!!! I love your new batts! They're hot!

Morning volty peeps hows everyone doing.
So i went an bought a silver marker that is oil based, waterproof, smudge proof and is paint based, and i think im still stuck at page 1. It is specific for certain products ie you can use on plastic, metal etc.
It works so/so, goes on nicely stays put when you carto fill it with cap/condom and doesn'nt come off when you wipe it with a tissue. Sounds good doesn'nt it,... But the trouble starts when your fingers get sweaty from the heat. Then the smudging starts and if you rub it a bit it starts to come off. So it got me thinking about the materials we are dealing with. We know that the carto's we use are not just carto paper/ there is a thin film of some sort of plastic that is the top layer. And when we sweat there is sure to be some sort of oil on our fingertips at one point or another. So now my quest is too look into a texta/pen based ink that wont interact with oils but stays on plastic.... Any thoughts from the artistic types that might have more info on this? Or maybe if i get some clear contact paper which is cheap enough and. Put a thin strip around the writting that might work also. I would buy one of those label makers, but at the moment its just not moneywise enough for me to make that purchase.
He's my everything - we all rant at one time or another for a whole lot of different reasons. We are still human after all ( dont know about imagine i think she is part super human / robot) lol and its good to get it all out. I hope you get your stuff soon and i dont think of you any different from anyone else here- you are just a super caring partner and the planet could sure use more of you !!
Uncle your a smiley fluffy character and it comes through in every post i sure as hell dont want you to change that.
Sandysu it was lovely to hear about your horse i hope the time you spent with her was wonderful.
I am off for three days and not sure what to do first. Swim ride or shop lol p.s thanks to the thread for "reminding me" about the points. As i do all my orders off my phone i forgot about them . So last night i made my order with points. THANKS IMAGINE love the points!!!

Hi, Kblush!
You're welcome. I'm liking my carrying case, too. It's nice to be able to keep my batts organized. As for my new batts, I'm seriously considering getting some bling tips to give them more pizzazz. No kiddin? I have a sister in Maine thats getting married this Oct and the moving there. What part of VA??
Good to see you back

Funny, I'm originally from Maine! What part? I was in the Brunswick area. In VA I was just outside of Richmond in a town called Midlothian, beautiful area. Now I live near Atlanta.
Barb in D.C. ("He'sMyEverything"): The rubberized Black and rubberized Copper sealed automatic batteries are both very handsome and completely "manly" -- and they are both currently available in 78mm. As Uncle mentioned, the Green is also a beautiful dark "manly" green, and also available in 78mm.
You should have enough points now to make that extra purchase worthwhile. (One can never have too many batteries!)

Shes in Frederick. I'll text her. Funny, just a few months ago we spoke about it. Small world!
Hi, Kblush!
I'm glad to hear you like the carrying case, since I'm planning to order one next time I place an order. I, too, want to keep my batteries organized, with cartos on them so I can just select one and vape.
Welcome Back "Bill" - Miss Ya', especially at the "Late Nite" Get togethers . . .
Really, nice to see YA' and "DM" posting . . .
Now - Talk about "6 degrees of Seperation" . . .
Altrhough, I never mentioned it before - Have a lot of Relatives "Buried-Up" there in Maine and "My" Family (before I was born) always vaction there during the Summer at Well's Beach . . .
(Mother's side of the family - First Govenor of Maine was GREAT/GREAT/GREAT/GREAT-Grandfather
) Matter of Fact, Was there last August to "Drop" a little of Her off there too . . .
(At Great Great GrandMother/Father's Grave Site and the Beach - that she "loved" so much . . .
)
SandySu - I know taste is totally subjective; but Freedom is my personal favorite - I'm practically on an IV drip of the stuff ;-)
I like to try lots of diff juices, and i see all the time people have a huge lot of them for cheap, but usually its gone or US only.
Uncle your a smiley fluffy character and it comes through in every post

. . . Thanks - you're making "Me" 
. . .But Just so You Know I have - No Intention To Make Any Changes for Right Now . . .
Although, I've lost "My Smiley" in My Signature - I still feel the same V V V V V V
Well, if I don't like it, then I may share with you. I may forget just who wanted it, but I'll remember to post a review of what I thought of it, and if it's negative, just remind me. Maybe I can trade what's left for something else that you have and that I never tried before.
Maybe it's that oil on oil action that's "melting" the paint? Ick. DM would know more about this, but from what I can tell from peeling these things off, I think the "paper" is a layer of white adhesive vinyl, black ink, and a clear overlaminate - can't tell though if this overlam is an adhesive film or if it's printed over - either way, it would behave like vinyl. I wouldn't use Contact paper - too thick, even the clear is cloudy, and adhesive is not so great. If you're looking for something temporary, how about scotch tape? Or maybe you could go on eBay or a sign supply place in Australia and find some clear adhesive vinyl (usually sold by the foot) to put over it. Then any old plasic-friendly pen would work...or you could wait for the white pen-friendly skins to come out from SI...but I hate to say it, the P-Touch might be the slickest option for labeling these, if you're so inclined. Those tapes come in a bunch of opaque colors, they're tough, they don't ever smudge, and hold up to cleaning.

Well, it looks like the oil-based pens won't work. Thanks, Reptilr, for trying that out and saving me the heartbreak. I guess one of those small handheld label makers is my best bet. I doubt SI will have those write-on-able cartos by the time I want to buy them, so I've got to make other provisions. So now, Tina had one she liked, but it wasn't with laminated tape, and another was mentioned that did use laminated tape. Which would be best? I'm thinking the laminated tape. How hard is it to get the condoms back on? Just a tight fit? Impossible? Anyone know? I'm also tending to favor one that can be plugged in rather than having to use batteries. I remember seeing one that you could buy a power cord for. Some of the cheaper ones you could only use batteries.
