I finally tried the rayon that Bolivar sent me. I used it to rewick my RM2. I've been using it for a couple of days, and it's working great!

Go, rayon!

Got my kayfun clone and wire and rayon in the mail today.
Still more pieces of the puzzle to come.

Love your new (presumably temporary) avitar, Wolfenstark. Love Flamingo's new one too. Thanks, RatChat and DancingHeretic, for helping with a Halloween avitar for Omg Meniere. I'm looking forward to hearing of your journeys with the new topper, Wolfenstark. Are Halloween practices in Australia similar to those in the US, which have of course been carefully and accurately documented by The Simpsons?

Didn't think there was any possibility of me saying this, and I may have said it already without remembering for sure whether I said it, but I just might have to get me some more TFA Absinthe flavoring one of these days.

It's heavy on the tongue but in a very nice way. I am extraordinarily unskilled at describing flavors (unless it's chocolate) so I won't even try. TFA Absinthe flavoring is quite satisfying for me at 8%.

Don't really have trick or treat in most places of Australia.
The supermarkets only started to sell the Halloween style pumpkins recently.
Some people get in the spirit but its not as wide spread as in the USA.

Interesting. Do you think people there are getting more interested in Halloween or is it more instigated by business? For us it is a mid fall celebration, for you I guess it is a prelude to the fire season. Witches in bikinis, not sure if that's a good thing or not.

ETA Oops! Main point was congratulations on the kayfun getting there. Happy coiling!

Most think Mothers day and fathers day is a day made for selling cards.
I've always liked Horror themes watching horror videos on VHS growing up and like candy so the halloween theme is nice.
Perhaps the generalisation of it more than its historic origins.

Maybe with the internet young kids may go around but that it because they know about it through watching American kids.

I'm worse at describing flavors. It either tastes like strawberries, chocolate, coffee, ice cream, etc. or something out of the septic tank. I remember my parents watching Julia Child. It short circuited my brain but she was funny. Someday I have to try one of those more complicated juices to see what it's all about, just don't ask me to describe the flavor. :rolleyes:

ETA again. Sloth found me a cool avatar that I actually managed to get posted, making me no longer an avatar virgin. Right after that, The Ocelot PMed me the avatar at the left. She made it. Now that's a gruesome flamingo. :laugh: I was honored and not about to say no. So this one stays until after Halloween. :D Can't wait to see Omg Meniere's.

The tracking info will still show Oct 22 as the "expected delivery date" even after the package is delivered on a later date, I believe. The only defense I can make for that logic is that the expectation didn't change even though it wasn't met.

The retired mailman, BB.

Came today. One of them still works. Can't actually find anything wrong with it. Of course haven't had a lot if time to play with it. The other one is DOA.

This fine print is a not so subtle reminder to always read the fine print before signing anything.

Yay, it's a vape mail day for a few of you. Told you it was a zombie, be very, very careful with that thing.

I highly recommend absinthe and strawberry. They complement each other nicely, and it does lighten up the absinthe.

Here it is, Flamingo. I really like it, and it is one of those I struggled with last night.

That is very nice! It reminds of, er... South America, celebration of the dead. :facepalm: Now I'll have to go find it.

ETA - Little more widespread than I realized.

Dia de los Muertos—the Day of the Dead—is a holiday celebrated on November 1. Although marked throughout Latin America, Dia de los Muertos is most strongly associated with Mexico, where the tradition originated.

Geez - if it continues to work - pretty good buy for 5 bucks.

I agree. Best deal I've had since I started vaping. :) I would bet it doesn't last.
Just left the dentist office. Lower half of my face numb. Pulled three teeth. 2 on the right and 1 on the left. Home to the recliner and ice bag!

Ouch, hope you heal fast. Maybe a new bottle of juice to lift you're spirits?


Don't forget Valentine's Day!

They don't let you forget. Ever. They're like the ANTZ of the romance world.

This deserves it's own post. Breaking News: The Troll Thread has been closed. :cry: Yeah, it was probably overdue but as previously mentioned, lost my avatar virginity in there. Now I have to find something constructive to do, like boil more cotton until my Cotton Bacon gets here.
Geez, you go off and try to get some work done for a few hours, and look what happens. They should have left it open and moved it to "Not Advisable" like all the 0.01 Ohm builds with 3 stacked 18350 batteries.

If that doesn't learn ya not to try to get some work done, I don't know what will.

I am counting my money from my sale, just built a vertical coil for my Orchid, having a thank you competition with my customers, and contemplating buying out fastech's warehouse. The vertical on the Orchid was a PITA, but a vaper's dream.
Sounds like you did great with your sale! Congrats! Can you leave just a couple of items in the Fasttech warehouse just in case? (In case of WHAT, I don't know.)
