Morning, mixers.

Rain is back, after a brief respite :) Still (barely) above freezing here.

I found a recipe that I'd like to try, bust-a-nut by Alisa. The recipe is 8 years old and mixed for mtl. I vape dtl, by what percent should I lower the flavors?
Original recipe calls for 20% flavor, just sounds high to me.

I think I'd cut it in half for starters. Yeah, 20% is likely a bit much, even for MTL!

If I was making it, I would cut the percentages by 50% (minimally).

    Very true, I think many people sit and assume that the products will be available since they exist on different continents.
    Everyone knows that it has been strict in the US, but it has not been a huge problem as long as the products can be bought from China or Europe.
    With the new restrictions in China, not to mention what is planned in the new TPD Europe, there will not be much left.
    I have been ordering a few things from the UK but with the talk I’m hearing I don’t know how long that will last. As far as nic goes, I’m well stocked but have been thinking about grabbing one more liter just because.

    I have new glass bottles for 2 liters of nic, they need to be filled, I don't know how much I should gamble on buying in PG and VG.
    I can afford to pay this 40% TPD tax, the thing is that I don't think there will be that many sellers left.

    Terrible about that Bills player last night that suffered cardiac arrest on the field. Hope he pulls through!

    Saw that last night. Joe Buck described the first responders pounding on Hamlin’s chest. The compressions were not visible on TV. Thankfully they were able to restart his heart.

    His tackle was much like any we've ever seen in football. YouTube video. The tackle was routine. He stood up after making it and quickly went down. NFL Network and ESPN are at the UC University Hospital waiting for an update.

    My thoughts are with him, his family, friends and teammates. :nun: :wub:

    I don’t keep more than a gallon of each on hand normally. I figure as long as the soap making places are around that we should be able to get pg and vg. As far as nic goes, I have about 11 liters in my freezer.

    I bought a few gallons of each a few weeks ago. Needed to replenish my dwindling supply. In the USA VG/PG will always be available. Each has many uses far beyond vaping.

    I went ahead and finished up the last review I had left to do. I'm now free until something new arrives.

    PG and VG generally speaking, they will not be able to tax.
    As I understood it, they will tax PG and VG if the quality is better suited for electronic cigarettes than what is needed for other uses.
    It seems completely absurd, but such things are typical of the EU.

    I myself will have two liters of nic for the freezer, the math says that I will have nic until I pass 90.

    Just got back from the UPS store. I had to send the title since the insurance is totaling my oldest daughter’s car. She came out way ahead with the payoff being way more than trade in or private party. I was really surprised.

    Yes it is. As far as I’m concerned, she was overdue for another car. We bought it when she was 17 in high school in 2014. We did do some repairs on it and it was mechanically sound as far as I know before the accident but this is a prime opportunity for her to get a newer car and she will be off of our vehicle insurance so in reality I just got a raise. Soon she will have to go off of our health insurance too so that will be another raise.

    I felt kind of strange earlier and then again after vaping for a while. I’m wondering if I’ve been vaping so little the past week that my tolerance has gone down temporarily. Normally I can chain vape 6mg on a sub ohm tank with no adverse effects. Looks like I’m going to have to take it easy for a while.

    Congrats on the upcoming raises..

    I'm still on no nic juice and will be for another couple of weeks, at least until I get my stitches out. As much as I miss the nicotine, I'm sure I'm going to have to take it easy, too. Going full steam on 8mg sub ohm probably isn't wise.
