This isn't what you think it is. I actually LOVE Wyatt Earp tobacco flavor. It is so good, so sweet-leathery, so earthy, and my GAWD it's such a satisfying vape. I can vape solely on Wyatt Earp all day, for weeks at a time. It has almost a context to it, especially with a name like Wyatt Earp. I can vape on it and imagine myself in the outdoors, up on a mountain, sitting on a rock and listening to the birds, the wind rushing through the pines, and the smell of pines and rich soil.

Not too far from here (approx 25 miles) is a place called White Mountain, most of which is protected state forest. There are Deer, Elk, and Moose trails going all throughout the mountain, and you can follow these trails on relatively easy terrain. There is an outcropping of rocks, covered in moss, that stands about 100 feet above a game trail that is often traveled by Mule Deer. I was planning on taking my vape gear with my bottle of Wyatt Earp (spare battery as well) up onto that mountain for a day hike, and visit not only the lookout point, but the deep ravine that's hidden on the mountain. Having something like Wyatt Earp would just wrap up the whole experience perfectly.

Well, I recently lost my job, and as of a few days ago, the very last drop of my Wyatt Earp 18mg was used up. It's going to be quite some time before myself and ol' Wyatt go up on the mountain to watch the deer and explore the ravine. So, after 3 months of being a faithful Wyatt Earp fan and always having some on hand, I say:

Farewell Wyatt Earp. I'm not sure when we'll be able to hike those deer trails, but I'll keep you in my fond memory until that day comes.

I've face rough times before, it's always up and down. It's just that recently, it's the small things I'm missing out on that really hold a lot of meaning for me. It's not just missing a favorite liquid, I'm missing the whole experience. Times get tough, and we tighten our belts and sacrifice things in order to get by, whether its gas or food or a cell phone. It seems like there are so many things that were the norm for me, are now a luxury.

When I first moved up here from Torrance, CA, back in December 2008, I rolled my '89 Taurus in La Pine, Oregon getting up here. 60 mph, hit some ice, fish-tailed, rolled it into a ditch. Because I was moving to north Idaho, I had that car packed pretty good. A lot of my belongings, including my computer repair tools and case mod tools (Dremel, multimeter, various cables, connectors, etc) had to get left behind at the tow yard, as I could only take what I could carry the rest of the way on AmTrak.

Since then, it's been one hell of a struggle. I mean, this area is poor. Having any job, including McDonalds, is viewed as being golden. People here don't care about $10+ per hour jobs, because for 90% of the population here, those jobs don't exist. People here are either living off of unemployment, disability, or are retired. The rest of us here struggle to just get in the door anywhere.

After I left my crazy wife (Borderline Personality Disorder with Schizoeffective, ya, I don't even know why I got with her to begin with...) I thought I was going to just move back down to Torrance, but then Walmart called me in for an interview (after I got fired from McDonalds), and there I met my awesome girlfriend Julee. I most certainly have a reason to stay, because not only is she the one for me, but apparently I'm the one for her. Even though I see myself as a worthless, jobless, waste of space, she sees me as this awesome dude. I don't see why, but that's a whole different topic.

As I'm sitting here typing, I see the yellow and gold leaves falling from the trees and thinking to myself "another season gone. Hopefully this next season will usher in some sort of success for me". I want to make something of myself, but I find that with having hardly a dime to my name, it's hard to get going with any sort of business venture (computer repair or e-cig business), but with some time I should be able to get back on my feet and start my own company. Sure, there's tons and tons of vendors already, but with no risk there is no reward, and I'm up for the challenge, when that time comes.

For now, it's been about just finding work. I haven't been without work for too long, and I've been scouring the area trying to find something. Takes a little time sometimes, but I will find something.

This turned into quite the essay

I really feel your pain too, the last 2 years have been rough for me, i ran my own business for years and lost the business in Oct '09 and then my apartment in December '09. The last year has been a serious struggle, i took a min wage job just to have an income and then ended up with some painful health issues, major arthritis in my back apparently. This August things began to turn around, I got a new job that was part time, paid better but came with an hour commute... but i wasnt in pain all the time anymore, then last month they made me full time with benefits, which makes the commute more worthwhile. I still have many obstacles to over come but things are looking up. Im thrilled at quitting smoking, that makes my mental outlook so much better... the rest will come with time.

Sadly, i had given away my sample of wyatt earp already or i would have sent it to you so you could at least have a day of W.E. Good luck!

Dear David,

THis is a very nice gesture on your behalf. First off the story of his hard times was upsetting. I can relate to it because I too have hit hard times before. To the point where I almost had to give my dog away so she could get fed. Then to read where you are helping him out has really touched my heart. I do the same things with my clients if they don't have enough to complete their remodeling projects. I think it does more good for me than them. I come away feeling good about helping others. In a world where everyone is all about "Me" It is good to see that there are still some compassionate people around.

I will be ordering from your store in the very near future.

Thank you for your generousity.
