Kentucky is a hotspot for diverted drugs. Google for kentuckys-response-to-drug-epidemic
To divert the conversation, and avert the mods' hammers, I just ordered an ohm meter and Orchid base and new audio USB adapter from FT. Didn't really need the first two items yet, but the third one.....

1000 years ago was issued Valium for back pain. Reason being... it's a muscle relaxer. *Specifically* created for back pain. Worked like a charm. Try getting it today. And they wonder why older folks walk bent over. 
I could not afford all the new MRi's and such I would have to go thru and the cost is WAAY higher on a per month maintenance basis. My old files are useless under the new law I had to be re-certified...Idk why not?!? I mean an MRI and general practitioners referral will get you into a pain management clinic..Then passing the old,.."No I'm not an drug seeking addict" test with the doctor,..( they have to do this mind you,..because plenty of folks are always willing to sell t high powered pain killers out of grannys house),..and then the only worry is being put on an ironing board and enduring 30/45 mins of torture during those back injections!
Joking it's not really that bad and those do help a lot,..( for me anyway ) and makes your juice taste so much better when it's all over with and you wobble out to your wife's car,..or whoever drives ya there..lol
Maybe there are not that many pain management clinics where you are?!?
I hate knee jerk politicians who think they can legislate medicine.... They should be locked up for practicing medicine without a license.
And the only problems with pill heads is that they do not all od and die.
Addiction is a recognized disease of the mind..Ya wouldn't want cheesecake addicts to all get fat now would you?!?
Plenty of old drugs work wonders..I was wondering just last night while both my legs were behind my head,..why did they take quinine pills off the market?!? Those worked great for cramps! sheesh1000 years ago was issued Valium for back pain. Reason being... it's a muscle relaxer. *Specifically* created for back pain. Worked like a charm.

Thinking about building one of my old RDA's and using my old Vanilla mod..I think I'll use the Magma..I havent vaped that thing in quite awhile!
I've got a mod that I haven't used in a while... Because I put it down somewhere a couple of months ago and have not seen it since...
I remember taking the battery out, setting it down, and now I cannot find it.
It will turn up someday.
Yeah I was just looking in the gear bag..Idk where that Magma went to?!? Oh well,..I have a Stillare,..a Trident V2,..a Vulcan,..(need to get rid of that thing..makes me cough me heed off) and a couple of tanks..Orchid and Billow. I'm just not a tank man tankyouvewwymuch!
Quinine is off the market for leg cramps because some people have severe reactions to it. These reactions can be life-threatening or can cause permanent problems. Because of those reactions, quinine can only be prescribed legally as a treatment for malaria.Plenty of old drugs work wonders..I was wondering just last night while both my legs were behind my head,..why did they take quinine pills off the market?!? Those worked great for cramps! sheesh
However, the dosage found in quinine pills is far more than the amount needed for leg cramps, and there are at least two ways to legally get smaller amounts of quinine. The FDA considers the amounts "safe" and therefore does not prohibit:
1) A product called "Hyland's Leg Cramps".
2) Tonic water.
I use tonic water and it's completely effective for me.
Are you serious?!? Man TY, TY ,TY bigbells! I didn't know that and I have muscle relaxers but the side effects to those thing are,..you wake up looking everywhere for that cat that took a poop in your mouth while you were sleeping..That first vape in the morning tastes like a dead lizard..and they make me feel real funny.
I'ma go get me some tonic water TODAY!
Did you win anything?
Yep off of my rant now. I appreciate the tolerance of the moderators on my posts. Sorry bout that, I get carried away sometimes on the topic of pain control.
Made up some very good Blueberries and cream juice. Vaping it now and calming down.

Quinine is horrible to we who have the bitter gene. Might try it though....
This is why gin and tonic was invented... An attempt to make tonic water taste as good as the perfect vape....
Ok they didn't have vape back then, but this IS the front porch, and we should talk about vaping here.
I need to mix up something new.... Wonder what it will be?

I mix my tonic water with Cranberry juice to help make it more appealing - and Cranberry juice also has many health benefits. Since adding both to my diet and daily walking I get way fewer leg and foot cramps that used to keep me up all night. (I also have a bad back from a herniated L4/L5 disc in 2010) I too have to thank Bigbells for his suggestion of Tonic water - cause that is what led me to it
One of my original all day flavors was my Apple Cranberry juice. I just pulled some out the other night - and I might have to work on the mix - because it is not anywhere near as good as the mixes I have been making more recently. It was just Apple and Cranberry and sweetener- may have to try adding something maybe some Raspberry and Pomegranate since I also like my cranberry juice mixed with those for drinking.
Got the authentic Tugboat in today. Flawless did a good job getting it out quickly. These V1 top caps have one air hole on each side compared to two for the clone but that works out better for my single coil builds. I really don't notice any tighter tolerances on the authentic. The top cap on the clone feels a little heavier. Authentic top is milled out more on the inside and is very thin. Feels like it could be pot metal but IDK. Maybe that's what the colored ones are. Center pin on the authentic extends past the threads and looks OK for use on hybrid mechs. Not blown away so I'm glad it was discounted heavily but it seems to vape just fine.
26ga 8 wrap
1.1 Ohms
Kbox Mini still working good. Orange atty looks good, IMO. Authentic seems to leak a little less than the clone so far. I've read the cap on these expands a little from the heat and lets juice drop down. Never had it get so bad that it got into the 510 connection. NBD Forgot to add that the posts and screws on the authentic seem to be higher quality than the clone. Nice solid feel tightening the screws down onto the wire with no cuts. Easy to tell when it's tight enough.

but Gin is horrible to me as well. I shudder just thinking about a gin and tonic.
