Now, Hale-Bopp, that was something special. Every night, I'd stand in my driveway staring up at the sky, watching it get closer and closer. It was wonderful and, even though I knew it was going to pass on by, slightly terrifying.
I'm into astronomy... saw it through binos and telescope...got up at 2 am... was worth it...amazing!

FA Custard Premium would be a good substitute. IMO, it's not as eggy nor as "in your face" as CAP v1 Vanilla Custard. I find FA CP to be lighter. A couple more I like that might work are FLV Vanilla Custard or FLV Custard. Both are good and neither are like CAP v1 VC, IMO.
Good to know... I don't like the overwhelming custards :thumb:

I went to high school in NYC, basically in Greenwich Village. So, when you said "where the boys are" I though immediately about the gay life in the village.
On the other hand, as an Italian American, and as one who appreciates Connie's emotive voice, I should have thought about that song.
In my last hand is Google, which seems to be pointing me to Ft. L.

Yep - Long Story short, Worked and Lived in NYC and the Village specifically too - Barrow St. . . .Also - Italian / English American . . . Looks like "We" have a lot in common . . . Just Sayin' . . . :rolleyes:


About the Koolada: you're sayin you use between 25-33% of Koolada and 66-75% unflavored? So, that Koolada is mild or you're a heavy hitter!
That's a ton more flavor than I'd normally mix with.

I know NOTHING about percentages . . . If and when I measure a batch of Unflavored Enhanced w/Koolada - as I mentioned, I usually "Eye Ball It" be it in a 2.5 - 4 ml tank or in a 30 - 60 ml Bottles, especially since right now I use premade 50/50 24 Nic . . . YES - I do like a "strong" coolness to my vape, I use to smoke "Kool" cigarettes (Heavy "Hitter" Always :pervy:) . . . As for how strong it depends on "My" taste buds - if it is not strong enough I add more Koolada and someimes 1-2 drops of Menthol Crystal Liquid - if it is too strong I add more premade nic . . . The original "Menthol" recipe by @Bea-FL was for 100 mls of e-liquid at 50/50: 44 PG, 50 VG, 2 ml Menthol Crystal Liquid, 7 ml Koolada . . . :thumbs:

So - I hope this information is helpful . . . If not - maybe someone else can step in and help Ya' with the percentages . . . Just Sayin' . . . :rolleyes:

I heard the same. But, of course, all these spending bills are hundreds of pages long, and append all these irrelevant items to them. And as wonderful Pelosi once said, they'll find out what's in it when they pass (meaning read) it.
Now, why in hell would they go out of their way to help kill vaping, when they're trying to fund the US gov't and provide relief to folks who've been killed by the lockups? Maybe some of them, one day, will explain the connection. But, I doubt it.
because in order for the Republican's to give money to the 'little people' (us) the big (and dark) money that supports the Republicans want their pound of flesh. I am sure that McConnell has tobacco companies in his ear and wanted it added in to satisfy them. Nancy probably feels it is the less of the evils.
They each get something they want. They each provide for the peeps they represent. Of course, it is all written as "protection for children" in order to not call it what it is. MOre money for big tobacco
And it is the end of the year and a lot of stuff that has been sitting around gets dumped in (greenhouse gas, race horsing protection, and even the Dalai Lama)

I have both FA and FLV. With FLV would you cut the percentage in half SMT?

    I like menthol and koolada too. I’ve also been using Inw mix mint at about 2.5% for my stealth vape at work. It’s a really nice and strong mint.

    It’s way more koolada than I would use but it’s a matter of taste.

    I don't have Koolada, but I was thinking about buying some ws-23 on my next flavor order. From what I understand, the ws-23 adds the cooling sensation without the minty flavor. I'm not the biggest fan of mint or menthol, but I like the idea of adding a cooling effect with some mixes.

    I’m a little surprised that I haven’t gotten any interest on the evolv reflex I put on the classifieds. Oh well, if it doesn’t sell then into the stash box it goes.
    You could really help out some folks if you know any local to you.

    AHHH - Mint - Any Mint, Peppermint, Spearmint, even as just an additive . . . NOPE - NA DA - Not Happening . . . IMHO - Mints are not menthol and cannot add that "Cooling" effect I NEED in vaping . . . This is not to dismiss that others do appreciate the taste of Mint, it's just not the same for me . . . Just Sayin' . . . :rolleyes:

    I have both but I don’t get mint out of either.
