Thank you Always9988, AngieB, and Samolet.

I really appreciate you guys.

DaveOno, it doesn't seem blueberry to me, maybe Blackberry?

I have a great Blueberry Pie from TV and twas brillig is way different.

Still no lemon in lemon loves cake, Mandalime I just don't like.

I think for me, you have to hit me over the head with flavor.

I am used to the TV flavors that are strong and I love that about them.

Nothing subtle for me.

I think my favorite so far is the Frost Blossom though.

Just really enjoyable for me.

Some of the others I have tried are just like the lemon loves cake, lacking in flavor.

Like I said, so far, Twas Brillig, Frost Blossom, and Zombie Apocalypse I will reorder.

Thought about Cupcake City, but once again I already have a cupcake flavor from TV that I added Pecan and Caramel to that has alot more cupcake flavor to it.

Thank goodness I didn't like them all!

I can't afford to like more than about three.

Thanks again everyone, and thanks for letting me be completely honest about what I like and don't like.

I feel so fortunate to have this forum and my friends.

I broke out the Malibu after trying all those flavors.

Don't vape it everyday so that every few days I can break it out and Wow! It is so enjoyable that way.

Hubby has a pic he took of Brett the night he passed.

He is wrapped up in a blanket I made for the girls and I will have him post it later this evening.

If you were wondering what a Jack Russell/Miniature Greyhound looks like, pretty much all Jack Russell except for the legs.

Jack Russell's have those short legs, he had his Mama's legs, long and skinny!

Not great for him though because he had arthritis in his legs as he aged.

Our Black Lab Chipper has been so sad.

When Brett was wrapped up in the blanket after he passed, Chipper went over and sniffed and then laid his head down on him.

Kodak moment! No camera handy!

I put Chipper outside this morning and he looked back and stopped like he was waiting for Brett to run out behind him.

It's so sad.

Anyway, will be back later to post that pic and I will see if he will throw one in of Chipper too.

Thanks everyone for all your kind words and encouragement while we are going thru all this.

It has meant so much to me.

Cindy

Ok, I do really like the mini tanks and I am going to order more.

Not having any problems like I did when I tried the first one.

I was sitting here thinking the one thing I don't like is how you have to be careful not to get any liquid into the center hole so I had a brainstorm.

When I have a dead coil I always save the little rubber (whatever you want to call it!) thing that hold the wicks snug.

Got one out and placed it over the center hole and you can push it down just to the top of where the wicks come out.

Then I put the tip of my juice bottle between the wall of the tank and the rubber thing and of course the rubber is flexible so you can push against it with the tip and drip.

Filled it right up with no chance of juice in the center hole instead of tipping the tank, dropping juice slowly, etc.

Try it, it really works and now I like these tanks a whole lot more!

That's what friends are for....


Thanks DaveOno, but not all friends are good ones that are willing to take time out of their day to encourage and help like you guys are.

I am so grateful for the folks that do the e-cig reviews because that is what made me choose Halo.

Really I couldn't be happier with it.

And you guys greatly reduced the learning curve for me.

I hope I can PIF and help someone else the way you guys have helped me.

Still gotta try the Almond Joy.

Got my Belgian Cocoa with my order the other day, then the Brett situation happened and I just haven't gotten around to it.

Maybe later tonight.

Cindy,

Sorry I am late to this, but I want to add my condolances and prayers to you and your hubby over the loss of your beloved friend. We have had to put down two cats in the past few years and it was tough. It took us about two months after the last one when my wife said she wanted another cat. My kids and I went down to the shelter and ended up getting two kittens, Romeo and Juliet. After a while you will just remember the good times and the pain will fade some. Give Chipper lots of love as he is feeling the lose also.

Thank you gopher.

As the animals got older we decided not to get anymore til the last one is gone.

Then we can really think about what we do want and of course it will have to be one from the Humane Society.

We still have Chipper and he is 15.

Then we have two cats that are 14 and 11 so they will all be gone in a few years.

I am loving on Chipper as much as I can.

He looks so sad, but then labs kinda have that look anyway.

I love the names Romeo and Juliet for your cats!

Thanks again, I know time will help heal what we are feeling right now.

Dog names are cool, but for some reason, pugs get reaaly cool names. Like Petunia, Margaret, Thelonious (for Thelonious Monk, he was Thelonious Pug)...

Our first was Mona Lissa, cause she had a smile you couldn't figure out. We nick named her Li Li.

As Li Li got on in age, she had most of her teeth pulled. Now pugs have big tongues, it's just all smuched in. So she was sleeping on her bed, with her tongue hanging out. It dried on the bed, and when she awoke and came into the kitchen, she was dragging the bed still stuck to her tongue!!

And she was overweight. We were watching Return of the Jedi on TV, and right when the scene with Jabba the Hut came on, Li Li walked to the TV and sat down right in front, looking at us. It was like a mirror, Li Li and Jabba. We laughed till we cried!!!!

My last one was Governor. It just fit him perfectly!

Any other really good names?

I have a Chocolate toy poodle, she was brought by Santa for my sons. Her name on her certificate is Gingerbread Sugarplum, we call her Ginger. Another toy poodle was named Milley after Milley Cyrus, the elderly woman who had her fell ill and was hospitalized, now we have her and renamed her Molly.

I once had a huge rottweiler that had the yellowest eyes and was extremely dark black, I named him Midnight. No one could handle Midnight except for me. He was extremely protective of me. If ANYONE got within 25 feet of me. He would come and sit on my feet then watch whoever it was and growl at them. I would always get on to him when he growled, then when he stopped growling people told me he just kept baring his teeth in an extremely bad way. LOL I couldn't see him do this because he had his back to me. I think he sat on my feet so he would know where I was and could concentrate on the enemy. LOL He later had a tumor, we had it removed but it grew back and couldn't be removed. The vet said to just let him live happy until it started to bother him then we would have to put him asleep. The tumor grew so much that before he ever even acted like he had any problems it looked like the hump on the back of a brahma bull.

My funniest memory of Midnight was at the lake. We all had Rottweillers. My brother had Ace and our friend had Bear. I was sunbathing on a big roomy double float and held a ski rope tied to the shore to keep from drifting away. Midnight is pacing the shore, he can't stand being that far from me. So next thing I know, he is pulling me back in by the ski rope. When I'm close enough to shore he gets on the float with me. Then Ace and Bear join him. Me & 3 Rottweilers lay on this float for another 30 minutes when some boats started to come by. Midnight saw this as a threat and stood up and was growling and barking at them. Well Ace and Bear perceiving a threat stood up and did the same. They punctured holes in the float, so I start pulling on the ski rope to bring us in before the float sunk. We made it about 20 feet from shore. All the dogs swam for the bank but Midnight turned came back and dragged me by the arm to shore. His not so suttle way of telling me my fun in the water was over. LOL

Evie, what an amazing dog!

He really loved his Mama and wanted to make sure she was safe.

When you were talking about your poodles, it made me think of my cousin's poodle.

His name was Pierre and he was a standard poodle.

I think he thought he was a toy poodle, even though he was as big as a small horse, because he was always wanting to crawl up in your lap and of course that was impossible.

He would do his best though and he was heavy!

Anyway, Pierre was always baring his teeth like your dog did but didn't growl.

Kids would be scared of him when he did that so my cousin did everything he could think of to get him to stop doing it.

Finally the vet suggested he take Pierre to a lady who trains dogs and is really good at changing bad behavior and had poodles herself.

So he took Pierre to the lady and they discussed what Pierre's behavioral problems were.

The lady watched him thru the class and afterwards pulled my cousin aside and said, "He isn't baring his teeth, he's smiling!"

She said there are certain breeds that do that!

Have you ever heard of that?

It did kinda make sense though cause he never growled while doing it and didn't have a mean bone in his body.

The kids could get down on the floor with him and practically sit on him and he never got upset.

It was kinda neat when we realized what it was he was doing.

Dogs are amazing, aren't they?

Sorry for your loss.

I'm guessing that coconut isn't popular with you either? I got a 30 ml of White Rabbit, that I occasionally add to Tribeca, if I'm not vaping it by itself.


So many people told me it needed to steep so I am not even going to try it til the 2 week mark.

It will give me something to look forward to and I want the best first impression I can get.

And I do love coconut.....malibu is one of my absolute favorites.

I'll bet coconut would be good with alot of different juices.

Wait. Coconut in white rabbit?? Not in my tastings. In fact I was dissapointed after all the hype over WR. Sorry, I hope it's better for you than it was for me.

Another pug story to make people smile.

Pugs have short hair, but Li Li always did what the Black Lab would do. Like she couldn't swim well, but because Rupert went swimming, she HAD to also!

So in the cold, one day we got a sweater for Li so she could go out and play in the cold. Rupert took one look at her, and grabbed the sweater and started to shake it in his mouth, to and fro. With Li Li inside it. Then he really gave it big swings, almost in a circle. Li Li finally flew out of it, and landed across the room!!!

I guess Rupert liked his Li Li naked.

Talking about funny names. When my boys were young, they were given 4 kittens. They named them. One was black & white they named it Flower after the skunk in Bambi, One was grey & white they named it Purdy, since Flower's girlfriend was called Purdy Flower. The next 2 were orange and they named them Speedy & Roy!

Flower, Purdy, Speedy & Roy! Roy! That always cracked me up. All those strange names then boom Roy!
