Morning porchers...

I have to stop going to the hangout, I expend way too much energy...and I just sit in my chair!... feel like I've been out partying half the night!
It's not the sitting in the chair that expends the energy, it's the falling out of it.

My gosh, by 5:15 I had already cooked supper, washed the dishes by hand and cleaned the kitchen. I was hungry. Daddy wanted to go out to eat and of course I won. heehee

I love the peach from there and have used it since the beginning of my mixing. I mix it with 7Star tobacco. I've never tried the tuttifruiti. Let me know how you like it.

Hope everyone is having a great Friday.

Mind if ask you what percentage your mixing at. I mixed a batch at 2.5. Smells great but, not real good in the taste department.

Evening porchers...

I just awoke from an off n on all day long buncha naps! The hangout is ruinin me i tell ya...RUININ me! The last time I was there, i even put on make -up n got all gussied up!:blink:

So I've decided that I'm going to have to start exercising my vast amount of will power and limit my visiting to a doable timeframe.

Hope everyone's well tonight. My "little shadow" is coming along nicely, she's on her little cat stand in the window here in the pc room.

Lulu, before I forget.... those pics of the south made me feel all warm n fuzzy..and I've always lived in Mi. But there's also a lot of small towns and places that looked just like that up in No. Mi., back in the "good old days".

If I may, IMHO, 2.5% is normally at da top of da VZ SC % spectrum. My general VZ rules of thumb are:

VZ S Conc 1.5 - 2.5%
VZ Gourmet .5 - 1.5%

Ya might want to back off at least to 2% and see if da flav is more 'apparent'.

Actually, I did a VZ SC Key Lime last night fer da first time. Went 1.5% (18 drops/30ml @ 40 drops/ml) and really liked it. BUT, think I'll drop da recipe a couple of drops to see/taste a bit more lime. If not, I'll add an extra drop or two.

Don't get me wrong, da VZ SC KL it was very good on da first try. I'll let ya'll know how it works out either way.

I'll give it a try. Unfortunately I made a 30 ml batch so I'm going to have to mix up some 12mg unflavored to cut it with. Let you know how it works out. Not even going to mess with it until tomorrow. Stopped by the hangout and it's empty. I'm watching the Xfinity race anywho so it really doesn't matter.

Matt, believe it or not, but to much flavoring could cause more of a problem than not enough. I actually prefer milder flavors I guess. I have only mixed the peach SC with tobacco flavoring. I use 1.5% peach and 1% 7Star tobacco in mine. I love the smell of the peach and I think it tastes more like the fruit and less like a candy or jello. Just my buds. Whenever I use a new flavoring, I will mix a 5ml batch without even adding the nicotine to see what percentage of flavoring it will take for me. That is also when I use a little dripper to test it. I have not been mixing many flavors here lately. The sloth in me took over and I just add the menthol I make with Everclear and crystals to unflavored 24nic.

Janet's pink (red?) iStick 50 went swimming today. It fell out of her pocket and landed 4 feet under water. I jumped into the pool and fished it out. Shook off the water and left it sit in the sun for a couple hours.

When I tried pushing the buttons the display didn't light up. Tried clicking to turn it off/on - nope still no display. I plugged it into the charger and it came to life. It still had the settings it was set to.

It's been working 'fine' for the last 8 or so hours since taking a dip. We'll see how it is tomorrow? So far so good, although she's kind of afraid to use it (she's still skittish that her blue one did the auto-fire thing and that one didn't go swimming)

I did it. I made the break. I removed Num-num's kick. I am vaping on two unregulated mech mods. If I have a battery melt-down, I will blame the whole bunch of ya. :evil:

In other news, awsum over in Voltville tried to talk me into replacing La Vamitresse's topcap, but I decided it was not worth fooling with. Her inaccurate Ω meter is due to voltage drop in the ego to ego/510 adapter. If an emergency occurs, and I have to use her as a Ω meter, I will just hold the atty in place. I checked the accuracy of that, and it works.

You know, Janet, that's why I was so confused at first. I knew they had two dogs also, and have always talked to me about dog issues. But, they are the ones who came and knocked on my door this afternoon. The AC officer actually went to their house first and tried to take THEIR dogs. And the woman just had surgery and the officer was ringing her doorbell like a crazy man.

It's all going to work out in the wash. I was just totally dejected at first. I got that speeding ticket on the way home, and my mind went in that mode, "Well, what else can go wrong?" And then BAM, I got home, found the note from my brother AND the note from Animal Control. I just lost it.

Well, now I'm positive the AC guy is a total jerk and needs to be reported. Sounds like no dog is safe if he's around.

Yes, I'm very bummed about my iStick 50. It was the 1 of the 3 that actually worked and I really liked it. All I was trying to do was put Miles feet in the pool water! After the burp cloth leaped into the water the iStick followed. Can't imagine why they wanted to do that together! And here my biggest fear was dropping it in the toilet! Poor Mike jumped in, clothes and all. What a guy! Well, I couldn't do it or Miles would have gotten a BIG shock and we would have gotten fired as babysitters! Anyway, even though the iStick seems to be working fine right now, so you think it could blow up in my face tomorrow?
