I've got lots of vape mail coming in. All small orders.

No-Ox-Id in one order, precision screwdrivers in another order, spare springs and an extension ring from Provape, some 'beauty' rings for Provari and a drip tip from Creme de Vape. The most exciting is the new blue door for my REO Mini.

Also, a new phone case coming in. My old case died.

I ran out of money so I couldn't finish stocking up on spare parts for my REOs. That'll have to wait. It may have to wait a while because I also ran out of money before I could buy new bras.

I have a bad habit of wearing clothes until they're ready to fall off me. But, I really don't want to have to go to work without a bra because my two falling apart ones both fall apart at the same time. So, . . . .

I ordered some juice for Ginny today and no questions asked but I see that I cleared something so don't know what that was but I didn't have to give them any special information at all.
Blue Check asks for a lot of info I'm not comfortable disclosing & they share it with 3rd parties.. The other one is Vari something. It looks on public spaces to see if info about you is already out there somewhere & only asks for info if they can't find what they need online. They've been around for decades. Blue Check is new. If Vari whatever is being used you won't notice unless they need more info, but once they've verified you they won't ask again as long as you use vendors that use them.

That sure looks like that is the tactic they believe in...
So far, until they dream up something worse.
You know what vaping is so unpopular here I have never been to a B&M. I think there are about 3 in a city of 250K. Thats in 8 years of vaping.
Had to look up the closest B&Ms. Turns out there's two just over 30 miles away. Who knew? I thought they'd closed. Hard to drop in on them without a car but when I can, I will.
I see Busardo is still doing reviews. Hes had to stop the contests for now but has a lawyer working on what he can do. He has come out with some of his ejuice line or at least he was using one on the last review he did.
Be interesting to see what he comes up with. At least he can afford a lawyer that cares.
I went through that recently after the chrome plating on my PT tips started wearing off. Kidney Puncher sells them for $1 so I got a dozen, assorted stainless and Delrin and brass. Figured out which ones worked for me and got some more. Some look good but are too long for the hole in the mod. Maybe try shaving them down a bit if I have time. Some are loose. I dropped a mod and tank on the floor picking it up by the tip like I sometimes do. Some fitted perfectly but were wider than the top of the tank and looked crappy. I only have 4 sizes of tank. PT2, PT mini, Lemo, and Kayfun. If you have lots of different tanks it would be even more of a pain.

There really isn't a simple answer.
You might actually be able to get around that by using a DT adapter. Then again, You might have to get different adapters for each tank. :( Yeah, no easy answer. When you find what does work, buy a ton of them so next time you need them you aren't dealing with the "latest and greatest." Finally found what I liked at an affordable price and cornered the market on them. :D
Any chance that putting a thin (~1/2" wide) strip of nylon reinforced packing tape with a 'grab tab' in a 'proper location' would help?

Excellent idea! :thumbs:
Therez alwayz a sledge hammr n' a new mod.
That the best excuse since The Reaming I've heard for buying a new shiny. :lol:
Oh yeah had a brain fart there. I'll blame it on the meds. I am starting to get some of the other side effects. Never Google a medication!!
Never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever look it up unless you do suspect side effects. What you find will give nightmares for decades.

That's just depressing. :cry: The bra part. I wear clothes until they fall apart and disintegrate. Loath shopping for cloths. Have great stamina vape shopping though.


Got vape mail this week with free samples in it. :thumb: Surprised the heck outta me.

Question for those using SS for coils. How do you know when to change your coil? I changed kanthal when it started looking bad when I dry burned it, or flavor started falling off. Not sure how long they should last now.

Jup like legs said.......the same as kanthal. Ya notice it's icky or it just don't taste as good. I've never gotten 2-3 though. Maybe a week, but it's real cruddy by then even with my low flavor % diy. Of course he uses a lot less flavor and better flavors probably.

the only autograph he ever got was Louis Armstrong's,
Was it in green ink??? Son was watching pawn stars the other day, and they had one of his autographs come in. The expert said he always kept a green ink pen for that. I'm sure he'd use someone else's if they handed it to him though, so not all are in green. Just thought that was interesting. Of course, if I were famous, they'd all be done in purple. :D Had to sign something for my son for school one day, and we were in a hurry. I had purple pens all over the house, but for some reason didn't have one right where I was. Grabbed a black one or whatever. Son looked at it and said........Mom, they're gonna think that's a forgery cuz it wasn't signed in purple :lol: :facepalm:

Congratulations! Your multi-quotes are longer than mine, and that took some doing! :lol: But yeah, Temco rocks.
they don't call me Queen of the Multiquote for nuttin! :D But I had been in a lot of pain and had a week to catch up on with this thread

wow......that's awful!

Damn these batteries in this Therion are the pits to change. I knicked the rear one a little trying to get it out. the front one isn't bad starting to think charging it on board might be better.
jup Iffy beat me to it, but I write on my batts when I got them, and number them. then take regular packing tape, don't even need nylon reinforced. Put it over the writing, then pull it around making sure I have enough to make a tab. I have long nails, and they're easy to get out of my Reos, but when hands are acting up, they're hard to get in and out of the charger without the tape tab.


I wear clothes until they fall apart and disintegrate. Loath shopping for cloths. Have great stamina vape shopping though.
Same here. Hate clothes shopping. But will shop for vape stuff, kitchen stuff, office supplies til I drop hehehe Most of clothes have holes in em. Have on T shirt I have to wear a tank top under it. I call it my sacred T-shirt cuz it's so holey hehehe

Wow, that's kewl, but surprising.

That's pretty cool. At 93, I guess that's never going to happen for him and it's a shame. He loves music, the only autograph he ever got was Louis Armstrong's, and he knew a lot of famous people. Jazz/opera = fanboy. It would be wonderful to give him back the gift of music but sadly, that ship has sailed. Pretty damned cool for the rest of to know that that is an option.
Louis Armstrong is the earliest concert I can remember my mother taking me too. It was such a small venue that I hesitate even calling it a concert. I remember she fixed my hair in those long curls. I don't know what they're called. Lasted about an hour, the curls not the concert. I must have been about 12 years old.

It's such a shame he can't enjoy his music. At 93, there's not much else to enjoy.
I ordered some juice for Ginny today and no questions asked but I see that I cleared something so don't know what that was but I didn't have to give them any special information at all.
I'm so glad you found a juice that Ginny actually enjoys. I just hope you figure out how to clone it before the FDA makes it disappear.

I get so excited to go to a B&M. But, the 3 I've been to were all disappointments. Online stores have so much more stuff. And cheaper.

Maybe, B&Ms should become private Vape Clubs. A place where you can meet up with other vapers. Even bring your own food and drinks. They could be open from 7 to 9 pm every night and even charge admission. The admission could go toward any purchase. That way they'ld make money off those that just wanted to hang out and not buy. Seems fair.

It would give vapers a place to meet up and hang out that is for sure vape friendly.

If only we didn't have to actually try on clothes! I want online shopping, especially for clothes.

hmmmmmm I remember restaurants here used to have to do that. They'd charge a dollar for a "club" membership, or some were free, and you had to show your card to get a drink, cuz at the time restaurants couldn't just serve alcohol. wonder if that would be a way to get around some things.

I don't wanna buy clothes online. As bad as it is to go shopping for them, at least I can make sure they fit before I buy them. Don't wanna wait for em to get here, only to find out they don't fit, or looks like crap then have to mail it back, wait for money etc.
