Yesterday I was showing my wife the size of this thread. I've told her more than once I never thought it would turn into this. I was really just putting out some feelers to see how many older folks besides me were vaping.

All of that said, I am so glad I had the opportunity to meet all of you. You are all such great people and so interesting in your own unique way. You have added a part to my life that I will always treasure. You are the people that made this thread and that group over there.

No, I never thought this would happen. But starting this thread is a good thing for me. I hope it's as equally rewarding and fun for you.

I have actually thought about asking ECF to give us a stat on how many from various age groups are on this forum. I know it would not be exact since a lot of people do not use their real information, but it would just be a simple query for them to do and it would not give out any personal info on anyone. Maybe one of them is also following this thread (you know to make sure the older folks behave) and could tell us what the stats are. I would bet that maybe not the over 55 crowd, but the over 50 would beat out the under 50 in a heartbeat...

We were looking for you earlier. I need help with the coffee extract stuff... You and my4jewels are the real experts...

Sweetheart, I catch up on my subscribed threads throughout the day...every day (I don't -read can't get out much), so if anyone needs help just ask. I'll more often than not wait & see if someone else jumps in though ;)
Is there something specific you're having trouble with?
 
I am now 57 I started smoking while in the military. in boot camp you got an extra break if you smoke So you put 2 in your mouth and smoke them at 1 time What a high that was. But at a $1.10 a carton you just couldn't beat the price.
Growing up I never smoked thought my buddies were crazy. I'm 4 weeks into vaping and already feel better. Thank I would like to hang around and do something with the grandkids. Here's to vaping. :)

Okay now on to another question. Do any of you use a tank, if so any good recommendations for the small Boge cartos? I picked up some from Parkes Vaping, one word...YUCK!!! I have over 100 standard Boge's that I need to punch.

I know txtumbleweed doesn't since he has a nice looking pipe.

I can if I want to. This is the Vision Stone ce2 tank from Gotvapes and a chrome tank cone from smoktek http://www.smoktek.com/eGo-DCT-Cone-for-6ml-SmokTank--Type-C-_p_195.html

Off the grid is GOOD!

I miss fishing. :( My best fishin' buddy disappeared when he discovered girls. :laugh:
Sorry to hear about that addiction it's much more expensive and harder to break than smoking. I still haven't found the cure! Went through the same thing sooner or later he'll be looking to get away.

Mornin all, still AM out west, I've been at the VA today getting my annual checkup and doing my Vaping evangelizing. The pipe helps out a lot I've found out. The gal driving the shuttle bus had just started with a gas station pv and was five days smoke free so she was real interested as were all the nurses as usual. The Doc was real happy with everything being as my BP, colesterol and all was still perfect. He scheduled a Breathing test for tomorrow to see just how much I have improved in the last year of vaping. He is real interested in the e-cig and is keeping notes on my progress. I'm hoping I do better on the Test this time, I don't think they got the correct readings last year because they said the results indicated I had moderate to severe emphysema and I just don't feel that is true maybe mild to moderate being as my breathing is so much better than it was.

What was wrong with the tanks from Parkes? I have some and they worked fine for me... just wondering

The others I heard recommended were from Mom and Pops

<yawn><stretch><ritual scratch> Sorry I'm late for 'breakfast' <vape>. I'm a night owl and got to bed at 2 AM, fell out at noon. The only bad thing 'bout all that is I have sooo much catch up reading in this thread.

As to tanks, I used to make syringe tanks, but got an off taste after a month or so. Therefore, I'm now using the Mad Vapes 3.5 & 5 mls. I really like the Delrin caps, no off taste/leaking. You could cut the tubes down for the Boges. I'm punching the XL dual coil cartos, which gives me a great vape on a Buzz Pro 'round 4 volts.

I still luv the eGo Mega DCCs for a splash and dash option!

Speaking of tanks, gotta run... need to get some

I'm sorry you lost your fishin' buddy, rave, but I have to understand his decision. Girls are prettier and so much more fun. I'm just sayin' .....

They generally smell better too! My son used to go fishing with me all the time when he was a pup. We had a good thing going: I'd bait his hooks if he'd fetch any bobbers that I managed to get caught. Ah ... the good ole days.

Now - don't go writing off the entire female species just yet. Quite a few of us are pains, but not all of us. My late husband and I were the best of friends for almost 25 years. He never ran. ;)

I hear you loud and clear, rave. As with anything - good and bad. My wife is and always has been my best friend. Oh, she's not perfect; but then she's married to the master of flaws and mistakes :laugh:

Finally home from work(4 letter word)...I see ya'll are having fun here..I have a sweet girl at home that takes care of me so I guess the fishing will be better than girls for me.

I use tanks on every battery I have and they are the syringe home made ones and they work great..

Punching cartos is easy with a saddle valve but I cut a slot with a rotary tool my self.

Vape on folks
