Congrats on you one year vapeversary! Doin' good! 
Congrats @Vape? ... yep, I remember the trials and tribulations you went through. Ain't it great to have that behind you and have hit the 1 year mark.
Vape?,
Isn't vaping just a wonderful 'self-gift'? As said before, one needs the need to combat the reality of killing one's self with 'bakky!
I especially luv celebrating first vaporversaries.... and now yours...
The "kids" aren't interested in the way I vape anyway.
Oh so true nowadays. Re Tutu's comment re me losing interest, it wasn't so much losing interest as it was dat vaping equipment advancements and popularity pretty much out ran my source of ripe/fresh 'bakky victims' in my AO, and wid me in my own 'happy vaping place'.
Regardless, it's still a thrill fer moi to celebrate a vaper's vaporversary, regardess of which one... but especially da first...
Diver,
As we become aware of our vaping health improvements (not even countin' mental attitudes), it can become a v-vert crusade for dose we care fer.
I just happened to be in a target rich environment during my vaping genesis and had a friendly AO. All ya can do is try to help others. Don't press, but also don't be surprised when one of your 'attempts' seeks ya out fer mo' info later on! Dat's truly a special day!!!

Thanks, I've got my vaping stuff pretty squared away. Just got an email this morning from UPS. They grabbed my flavourings from EcigExpress, and have them in quarantine. Snarf! Now they want an origin/ composition of ingredients/ end use declaration from them, and I get to pay extra for quarantine processing. Wasn't even any Nic in there.
Wow! Congratulations on one year.
Oh, I stay ready to help where I can and my neighbors know how I have been able to remain smoke free.Diver,

@Zen Knitter - Looks like your vape store might be right. Don't know if you keep up with this thread California Prop 56 - Hidden Vape Tax but saw this link today Tax and Fee Guide for Cigarettes and Tobacco Products Maybe, perhaps, dunno for sure, this is were we stand in a couple of days but at the end of next month it may be a whole different ballgame. 
Of course, "Tobacco products do not include cigarettes," [their italics, not mine] because they are FDA approved. So there.
Yay for George's Mr. breeder! I don't know much about burst brain aneurysms except when I've read about them they are always fatal to the victim. So glad he is doing well.
Yo have discussed your converts and I love hearing about them and their continued success.
You and me both. I never moved beyond a (better) variant of the PT1 and a superior ego (Provari 2.5). In other words, I've been cig free for four years and haven't progressed from the cutting edge (at the time) of vaping the entire way.
But I do still cling to a dream of helping an older smoker convert.
I thought of cigs as old friends too, even though I knew they were killing me and wanted to quit. When all else failed you could go outside and have the nic hit your brain like a nuclear bomb, the other comforting rituals of smoking and enjoy nature. I really miss it and that's what scares me.
On the other hand, when I'm forced to inhale cigarette smoke it's all I can do to politely not gag. I'm sorry they smoke but grateful for the occasional reminder.
I know you didn't give up completely. I'm in awe that you converted so many people. Completely get why you "slacked off," it just stunned me at the time and we discussed and I understand completely. I know you know that but just want to make it clear to everybody. Used to be times changed over years, now it's months or weeks. (Yes, some real improvements happen quickly, I'm talking about all the gimmicks, pace of life and BS these days. New medical findings from manipulated datas anybody?)
Well,
. Maybe it was the vendor's name? I hope the order comes through in good shape. Perhaps next time order from the manufacturer? Maybe Wizard Labs? Don't know if the latter would raise a red flag. Crying shame this happened to you.

Either I screwed up (very likely), or ECF didn't capture all the quotes (also likely). Dosen't really matter, deserves a post of its own.
A MASSIVE congratulations on the one year vaperversary! The others are wonderful too (surprised me) but the first is absolutely the best. It's a wonderful milestone. In your honor, may I introduce the venerable signer.
And the song.

Aw, ya shouldn't.... cute,hahaha
Glad you liked it, hope your order progresses quickly. Also hope you're not anywhere near Debbie, as opposed to Deb. Feel terrible for the people and the wildlife. What a tragedy.
Is Deb here in Au? We're having a cyclone (hurricane) that's slow moving threw, but they got smashed up the top end when it hit. Lots of flooding and very high winds here now. Lots of rescuing needed.
Or something else happening to her?

I don't know if I know Debbie, FULL STOP, yes I do, cyclone Debbie,as opposed to Deb? I just realised I have been thinking of you as flaming tutu, mentally, as opposed to Flamingo tutu. Just now, your avatar came into my mental registry. Oldtimers brain fritz.
.
Funny, I've always pictured a very awkward bird. (sorry)
(sorry)
that's wonderful it finally worked for you!! And welcome to the porch
I rewick about once a week or 10 days. Using KGD on an O16 rda. SS wire
Sounds like it's time for @Ken_A to make you a 14 hole stand!!
I haven't been on much either so didn't realize you hadn't been. Glad all is well with the family issues. Sooooooo happy for you and Myrany celebrating your 4th V-versary!!! That's fantastic!!
So good to hear from you. Glad the aching has eased, but can't imagine why ya wanna move to a place that has cold winters and snow. But hope you find the perfect place for you! Wahoooooooooo on the 4th Vversary!!! What day exactly was it for you and tutu? I need to get that in my calendar! Been thinkin bout you and missin ya. Hope hubby is doing well.
kewlios! Happy 2.5!!!
Glad you found some and got em ordered! chipped teeth are no good
au contraire mon frere! heheheYou don't have cold weather in FL.
In my book, it's anything below 70!!
The legal teams involved in the lawsuits need to know about that. Hope they do. Haven't heard anything lately about how any of the suits are progressing
I think I've seen you on here before, but just in case, welcome to the porch!
From what I recall of what you ordered, or what actually arrived, and your current use rate. I think you have enough to last several lifetimes!
don't blame ya. I'm with Myrany on that. I think with most things, folks who invest time and energy into things they want/need, do far better with it than folks who get things handed to them
Praise God!!! That is absolutely wonderful news!!!
wow how time flies! congrats on your first!!!! I'm with Iffy, all of em are so wonderful, but the first is truly extra special! You have come so far since we first met ya! Hope you're proud of yourself, cuz we're sure proud of you!
JUP!!Regardless, it's still a thrill fer moi to celebrate a vaper's vaporversary, regardess of which one... but especially da first...
hehehe I've been known to blow in like a cyclone once in awhile......but haven't done that since I was much younger. Seriously though, hope you're not in it's path
I think it's a mental addiction to the hand to mouth activity for lots of smokers. They don't fare well by quitting with nicotine gum or other quit methods, but vaping seems to keep the hands busy while providing an inhale and exhale activity. It's not the nic as much as it is the "hobby" aspect of vaping that satisfies. You still get to do all the things you did while smoking, but without the dangerous chemicals in the cigarette smoke.
Finding a juice that provides a suitable mouth feel and flavor is the crucial step once a smoker starts to vape.
