Well I think I've found my sweet spot with these K5's for me now seems like the smallest one with #2 AF. I've cut my nic back to 2mg. I have been having this aching in my left part of my chest. Not like heart and it seems worse when I vape too much. I have achooley been liking my Kabukis. But those I have 8mg in and only use occasionally during the day. I've cut my Russian flavoring down to 1% except on the ones I have to use 2 flavors then 1.5% Got my appt for Emphazima rescheduled for Feb 11th and they want to do an endoscopy because of thickening in my esophagus. Plus have to go to new Hemotologist for low iron and HGB. But I'll have new feet. Now just need new heart, lungs and swallower and I'll be fine.

Call em? I could. Just not worth the aggravation. they gave a refund on the one and said keep it. Don't send it back. So I guess the other one would end up half price?

On shipping, their forums have thousands of entries on the disaster this year with shipping. Seems they're trying to ship "in house". Thats what amazon logistics is.

Of course this year got virtually nothing from them. Did a lot of shopping in canada. And... good luck with shipping here too. 2 or 3 weeks (at least around xmas) I'm finding is quite common. And u have to take a trip to the PO for packages. Fun.

Now you might say my case is unusual. But we have had prime pretty much since they had prime. And since it's virtually impossible to find "most" things we need here... states is where itz at. (not to mention drastically cheaper) Because of that we probably have at least 3 orders a week for each of us.So the sheer volume is what's making the disaster seem worse.

    We resemble that. Plus the cold is getting too much it's down to 3 at 830pm.

    Well I'm glad to hear that my brothers drive needs shovelin' too.;) (he also lives in Spokane)
    Never did manage to convince him that vaping was better than smoking.

    If it's like ours it needs plowing. Thinking of calling our plumber he has a big Dodge 4 wheel drive with a plow. IDK though it's pretty packed down now.

    You're right, I didn't pay attention to the lack of El Wacko tails until you started posting again. Must have been quite the 'crack' to lay you up for 3 weeks.

    It was, but no good story with it, see below.

    Have you been checking the ProVape site? They have very little left to sell there. This Radius is down to $129.95, sleeves are a buck. ProVari Radius I don't know if they are, but it looks like they are slowly winding down to go out of business. :cry:

    Almost time to come out of hibernation?

    Ummm, no, not yet.

    I noticed! I thought you were prolly having your usual internet issues tho.

    Mackelton T. Corgi says hi! & thank you for thinking of him!

    That dog is so danged cute! Love it when you post his picture. :wub: It would be nice to see that face first first thing in the morning. I usually get a view of El Whacko's other end in the am. He likes to sleep on his back, legs to heaven, snuggled against his body pillow and tail draped off the end of his bed. After six years I'm still not used to seeing that when I wake up. It's why, no kidding, I keep my mod under my pillow. If he's facing me when I wake up, I have to go back and get it after getting up. I should really move his bed.

    Yuck!

    hehehe I would never whack you darlin! Specially since ya apparently do it to yurself......omgggg how on earth did that happen?? Definitely noticed, but am paranoid now about asking why someone hasn't posted.....last time I did that on a thread, I thought I hadn't seen the person in forever.......they'd posted several times the few days prior :facepalm: Plus, sumpthin that happened 2 days ago, I think was a month ago, and something that happened 6 months ago, I think was last week. :facepalm: :facepalm:

    nooooooooooo <<puttin water wngs in the mail to ya>> Anyone who has ever waited on mail from me will get a kick outta that...... huh David :D Grabbing an envelope right now.......brb

    done forgot what this pic was :facepalm:

    he always looks just too perfect to even be real. You must have a great camera and he is such a cutie.

    There really is no good story. There is a small molding where the carpet meets the linoleum. It's been there over 20 years. Stepped on it just right, over I went and cracked the back of my head on the sharp, solid edge of the desk. Freak accident. I was very, very lucky I was hit were I was, it could have been disastrous. Still freaked out about it, still hurts for that matter.

    No water wings necessary. Squirrels might need them. We live on a hill, excellent drainage, stable ground. More worried about power outages and running out of charged batteries for my mod than anything. Okay, falling trees are a worry. Oy! I need to make juice. Or actually write down the recipe instead of keeping it on the computer. Wrote it down now, good to go. :)

    Sorry you're having problems with Amazon. We have Prime also. The only problem I had recently with them is they refunded a movie we rented and apologized for us not liking it. Huh? We watched it a number of times and loved it (The Monuments Men). They apologized for the error but don't think they ever recharged us for it.

    What ticks me off about them is having to sometimes dig deep for the least expensive price. They used to be pretty straightforward about it. And the price seems to go up if you try to reorder something. It's happened with Boston Rounds, the desk magnifier, rayon, dog's Frisbees, etc. To many things go up by about a third within a month.

    So maybe hitting him about vaping while he's wheezing from shoveling might work? But, yeah, haven't been able to convert my neighbor yet either. It's frustrating.

    No, I hadn't seen that particular one. But yep ... it's truly looking sad for the future of Provape. For the last few month's they've just been selling out stock on hand ... I've been watching for about 3 month's to pick up another black and purple Radii ... nope neither has been available for a very long time. Over in the Provape forum a lot of folks figure they're just depleting inventory to shut down. Provari's and Radii are just a part of their overall technology business. Perhaps they are dropping out of the market. Would be very very sad to see them close up shop.

    LOL, just my luck. Bought a P3 used for $99 and the same new ones drop to $99.

    Sad that such a pinnacle of American vaporizer craftsmanship is being squeezed to oblivion by inexpensive, high power *insert random country of origin* sub ohm mods.

    I bot a new P3 for $80 a while back. Don't remember the store.

    I'm doing my best not to listen ... but I hear a P3 Satin blem for $80 calling my name. So much less than list price of almost $200 more.
