I have been following John's dilemma, and can sympathize with it.

Well John is right, there needs to *be* a product that fulfills what some people are looking for and this product seems somewhat elusive and maybe because a lot of manufacturers don't realize people want it, although small stuff has pretty SERIOUS limiitations that you have to accept, too.

I wish the Japanese would do one. They are SO GOOD at wonderful tiny electronics that are also gorgeous looking. And small footprints.

When you find *it* John LMK, I want what you're having. :lol:

Japanese wrapping, for instance, of eggs (I have this book): such an artful culture in many ways, why I think they should design some ecigs!

That's pretty normal stuff here where I am. There's a 2,000 acre cattle farm across the "road" from me, and most of my neighbors run a few cattle or have horses and mules. If you bale and move hay, I KNOW you know what it's like to *work hard*. :lol:

Kat, it's so weird how parallel universes can be, here we are talking in real time, and I have to drive 30 miles to find a sidewalk. :lol: It always amazes me how different our lives are but we all have in common vaping.......and other stuff too, actually.

Very fun to hear about other people's lifestyles to me at least. :lol:
I haven't moved hay in quite a few years - grew up on an 80 acre farm with 40-50 head of cattle. We never baled the hay, but bought it from locals to store for the winter. We also cut and split wood from the bottom of the pasture. Spent too many summers fishing in creek for catfish and carp. Milking cows, feeding the chickens, slopping hogs - good times all around :D.
I vividly remember helping to deliver a calf in the freezing snow and bringing the calf into the house to sit by the fire so it wouldn't freeze to death. So glad when we finally added a bathroom to the house ;).

I understand about the bathroom. I can remember outhouses. :) It was always full of black jumping spiders in the summer. I remember taking baths in a big galvanized metal tub in the kitchen and my grandmother boiling water in stockpots to heat it for me.

Did you ever noodle for fish? Oh, people today would be horrified at mom wringing a chicken. My first girlfriend used a hatchet instead. The second one used a knife but almost everyone else wrang their necks.

Here are some of the reasons I am hopeful about the emini duo.


OVALE eMini Duo Kit One of OVALE's many best selling series, the eMini line has grown to be used by countless vapors ... There are no leakage problems.
You visited this page on 11/27/15.

They seem to be making a point about not leaking several places.

Then they first started marketing the eroll they showed in pictures the way the parts connected with that partial turn and nub.

When you look at the video of the emini duo it looks like all the parts are rotating when it goes together. That screams full threading to me.

On my lifestyle it is out of boredom. I want to stay fit but I can't go to a gym or run in circles on a track. I will not work out unless I can disguise it as having fun.

When I run circles on a track I start to go insane as my mind wanders. I started running where I could see things than I discovered I could seem even more on a bicycle and still get a cardio workout. I have to push the fact I do the things I do out of my mind as exercise. I have to make it fun or I wont do it and will get fat.

My grandma used to wear these light orange canvas shoes. They would get bloodstains on them from standing on the chicken's head while she dun wrunged its body. Then she dipped it in a pot of boiling water, before we yung'uns pulled out the feathers.

I have noodled for fish, but I prefer blue gills, so we used plain old rods with red and white floats.

I never saw it done like that. Wringing the body, I am trying to picture it in my head.

My grandmother showed me away to remove feathers using mud that had a lot of clay in it. It required a hot sunny low humidity day. The chicken was packed in clay mud and put on an overturned metal water trough do it could dry quickly. You pealed the mud off and the feathers came off with the mud.

You hold the chicken by the feet, step on its head, then twist the body and pull it upward with a sharp jerk. If you do it right, the head usually comes off.

My apologies to the city folks.

I never knew you were a farm or ranch girl. I should have picked up on it.

I'm a ranch woman now, but I was born and raised in L.A. I just got farmed out to relatives in Illinois every summer.

Never noodled for fish - we had too many snakes in the creek for that, although that didn't really stop us from swimming in there. Mostly in the summer, we used a water hose in the back yard, but during the winter, the galvanized tub came out - when the pipes froze, we would bring in water and heat it on the wood stove.

ETA - oh and yes, we would wring the chickens neck for supper that night. Don't think we ever used a hatchet.

I like the little note to the city folk.

Until you told me this I would have told you there where only three ways on a farm. The head wringers where some even acted looked like they were cracking a whip. The hatchet or cleaver choppers. Then there was the dainty neck slitters.
