    I still haven’t gotten the coils I ordered from FT that have been in transit since June. They have made it to the local sorting center twice and then back to Chicago and bouncing back and forth. I’m getting zero help by calling USPS.
    That pretty much sucks. That’s ridiculous.

    I'm going to have to get some of those zlide drip tips, white for sure, not really liking the drip tip the Zenith II came with and my others that look good with it offer too restrictive of a draw anymore for me.

    ETA @FranC ! What drip tips did you get? :)

    Let me see if I can find the old order and write down part numbers.

    I think this is part numbers. The one I put on the Zenith 2 is 9706140. The others are
    9706145
    9706138
    9622082
    4787005
    4717300

    Hope those are right

    I'm in this odd situation. I need some Nautilus X coils (and they must be 1.8 ohm... don't like the 1.5) They are very hard to find now, and cost $20 a 5-pack (plus shipping and age verification charge) I just can't do a big order right now. The local "smoke shop" might be able to order them for me (at a price markup but might be worth it) I only use them for my carry around vape so don't use it that much... 5 coils will last a long time. Or... I could just get another Zlide and order Z coils for $8 a 5-pack.
    Sounds as though in the long run another Zlide would be more cost effective.

    I just finished mowing the grass.. damn yard makes my hands tremble afterwards. I can't believe I use to do this in 95 degree heat in Florida. It seems 84 degrees here in NWArk is 10 times worse for some reason.

    I want a riding lawn mower for Christmas.
    I would bet it’s age. If the yard is big enough you should get a rider.

    Could it be the humidity? I used to love mowing but not so much any more.

    I decided that I didn’t like the strawberry custard that I subbed. I emptied the tank on the new Z80 and grabbed a one shot to try. I’d never probably buy something like this but it was one of the five in the pack. It’s called the Thai. It’s chai tea with tangerine. I’ll see how I get along with it over time. It’s just really different from anything I’d normally use.

    It's not really worth calling them. One time the person I was talking to told me all they could see was the same tracking screen you see yourself. I did submit a complaint or whatever they call it. The item arrived the next day and I got a response to the complaint a month after that saying that the item had been delivered.

    I've had better luck going to the post office. Talked to the lady there once when a package came to town then left town and dropped off the radar. She disappeared for 20 minutes then came back and said she had managed to figure out what had happened. She got it rerouted and it was back to town in a couple of days. I got the impression she quite enjoyed doing it. Probably a nice break from the counter. Going to the PO is a bit more practical when you're retired though.

    Yep, it's definitely age... it's only a little more than a 1/4 acre but it feels like I am mowing a football field.

    Could it be the humidity? I used to love mowing but not so much any more.

    I've been mowing grass since I was 8 and it's never been something I took a liking to. The one time my father mowed the grass he found my pot plants. It was a memorable Saturday morning I'll never forget. He was in the Coast Guard so one can imagine how he felt about it.

    That's why I loath drop ins.
