On the Stocking Up thread, we're talking about what will happen to our stashes when we die.

So, who on the Old Folks threads should I tell my daughter to contact if something happens to me? She does already know to contact the Old Folks threads, at least.

I wonder who started that goofy discussion?? :thumbs:

It's not that goofy really. Unfortunately we've been through 'this' at our fly fishing / fly tying club. Over a lifetime quite a $$$ collection of rods, reels, tying tools and materials can be amaased (nice word for hoarding eh?). We've helped a few widows sell off their husbands 'stuff'. I helped one widow personally and raised close to $3000 for her. I never even knew her or her husband. Years ago her husband was a member of the club for a few years and she found my contact info among his stuff. We actually became friends after her husband past while I was helping her get rid of his stuff.

You're a good person, Mike. (Not that this is news ... Just felt compelled to say it. :))

JC, Glad to hear "things" are at least bearable for you now and mega thanks to whomever/wherever the help came from. Darned good family here!!! Anyway, just glad you're back among us!!! :) :) :)

MikeE3, all I can say is , What a great guy! You da man! :thumbs: ;) Helping others in their time of need is the greatest gift we can give and that's just awesome. :)

Kenna, I had to laugh when I read, "I only have 19, it was a typo." :lol: :lol: :lol:
Reminds me of the astronomy professor that was giving a lecture on the life expectancy of the sun and said, "It may burn out in as soon as a billion years." A young man jumped up and shouted "Oh my god!" The professor asked why he was so shocked. He replied, "Did you say a billion years or a million years?" The professor clarified and the young man said, "Oh thank god! I could have sworn you said a million years!" :D

Iffy, "Vapin' " deal on the mod!!! Great score!!!

Afternoon All!
:cool: Von Vape :D

I would want my son to donate my "hoard" to Vape a Vet, the association that helps military folks quit smoking and switch to vaping if something happened to me. Hopefully that won't be necessary... ;)
You need to contact them to see what they can accept. They can't take diy jor opened juice for example. Idk about batteries or non removable batt mods.

My nephew gets my nic & flavorings to use for family vapers. He will get everything & can keep one of the Hex's, sell the other's to cover creamation expenses. That's as of today. It could all change if he makes me mad. [emoji56]

I'm talking many, many years from now (I hope!), juice could be used as insecticide or tossed, internal battery mods will be long gone. Any removable battery mods and tanks could go. Or sold it he wants.

On Monday, MFS had their 17% off sale so I ordered 2 liters of 100 mg/ml nicotine. I opted for the free shipping. I also ordered 2 boxes of Ni 200 coils for my Herakles. According to all of the emails, 4 total, delivery was expected to be on Friday. This morning I grabbed my first cup of coffee and opened up my email. There was another email that said my order was delivered. I opened the front door and there was my package. A day early and I didn't do any type of upgrading shipping! The nicotine was packaged in shrink wrap and the box was filled with peanuts. The 2 boxes of coils were also in the box. That was when I discovered I had mistakenly ordered coils for the Herakles Plus. Dang! Oh well, I had to go out and get some glass bottles for transferring the nicotine so I can store it in the freezer. While out I went to my favorite B&M and picked up a Silver Herakles Plus. I have to say, I am really surprised at the taste of my DIY Mango, it is far better than with the regular Herakles. I do believe that this was a good mistake.
