Here's a simpler version of tale a told by Maureen Lipman about Joyce Grenfell that popped into my mind this morning:

Teacher: Today’s new word is FRUGAL, I want you all to make up a sentence with the word FRUGAL in it.

Child 1: My daddy is frugal with his money, he keeps it in the bank.

Teacher: Good, good, you understand today’s new word. Next!

Child 2: My granny is frugal with buttons, she cuts them off old clothes and saves them in a tin.

Teacher: Good use of today’s new word. My granny did the same. Next!

Child 3: The bad king locked the beautiful princess up in the highest tower in the land and when she saw the handsome prince on his horse she shouted “Frugal me, frugal me” so he frugalled her and they lived happily ever after.

Teacher: :facepalm:

I felt pretty darn phhtthhhtthhhiiisssihhccc as I was dragging my air mattress down to the car. I was like, "You puny creature, you."

Then, I saw crazy cat lady approach on her scooter and I was like, "Well, things can always be worse." We did not exchange words. We never have, not since I turned down her request for a cigarette the second time by saying, "When we met you told me you were a vaper. That is pretty darn PHTHISIC, if you ask me."

I spelled it phonetically the first time so you could know I had the pronunciation right.

I now demand one of your mods. LOL.

Me: Today’s new word is PHTHISIC, I want you all to make up a sentence with the word PHTHISIC in it and make sure you pronounce it properly.
When I looked up Phthisic, I was reminded of all the old gravestones in the cemeteries in New England that listed cause of death as "wasting disease". Drop the PH and it looks like it sounds.

Holy crud. Maybe that whole "CLR hour of rewicking doom" was worth it after all. They sure are meaty now. I actually had to turn down the wattage of one of my mods.

I love hate love hate etc. those coils.

Anna

I did a bunch yesterday! Zero "hate" for them here.

Love, love, love... :cool:

This one kind of explains how I have been feeling lately, compared to last year I have been working more hours. That is a good thing, because I also have had a lot of extra expenses to pay for this year, and while it was good to have the cash to pay for it all. I have not been able to order a single vape related item in like 4 months. I did finally do my Tax's this past weekend, so when I get that cash I will order something, or else something like this will happen.

LOVE the tune, KAS, and good luck with the fun stuff, should it indeed follow the US Treasury's repayment of the interest-free loan you were kind enough to grant them. That was nice of you.

Buy something good. ;)

Yeah I will, not sure what really, maybe another Dicodes mini, or that 21700 one. Maybe the charging dock, or the new Kayfun lite 2019, and some flavorings? I think any of those would help keep me sane. :)

Well, as least for now, options are many in Vapeland. Choose a preference, and RUN with it. :thumbs:
