Good Lord, you people are rolling over 100 posts a day. I can't begin to keep up.
Good Morning Mixers. Really need to get off my .... and start dealing with all these options I have just lying around. Some of them might actually make good e-liquids.

I think I killed my first mod screen at work today, the USV Mach On3. There are verticle lines running all across the screen but it still vapes fine. I do wonder if its safe to use with a bad screen though. Opinions, yea or ney?

Those displays use screens with addressable pixels that are strobed similar to a computer screen. If a pixel driver goes South and stays on or off you get a vertical or horizontal line in the screen. The mod's internal electronics still work, but the display can have lines. As long as you can use the mod it's fine, but the display may get worse over time. Shop for a deal to replace it!

On one of the trails I cycle on, there is a black squirrel, which usually appears on my passage. When I looked it up, there was an explanation that it was really a grey squirrel with some sort of something or other. It was still a black squirrel to me which I've never seen before.

Most of the squirrels around our house are Grey with reddish fur on the top of their heads. Typical Grey squirrel. I'd leave them alone, but they decided to chew on the door casings of our front and back doors. A pellet rifle was the only cure. After I dispatched a few the chewing stopped and I retired the pellet gun. It's still on call if the damage begins again!

Oh no! Not okay to munch on the house!

    Good morning mixers. I had high hopes for the SC orange sft but it tastes like Tang drink mix. Not that I hate it but wasn’t what I was hoping for. It’s not as strong either as I thought it would be at 3%.

    Don't blame you.

    I wouldn't care for that. Never was crazy about Tang. Fruits generally don't need a steep but wouldn't hurt to try it again in a week?

    I have had better luck with tangerine flavors than orange ones.

    Thank you, this is good information to know.

    Yes, that :) Display and control are different parts of the board, although, of course, when it gets to the point that you can see to make settings...

    Technology is a mixed blessing (I've been known to say that a lot) I read that last word as "sawdust"LOL
