"If only the forest people would rake the leaves" says you know who. Yeah right.

Not going there, but the State has mismanaged our forests and our power grid very badly. For years. And now we're paying the price. And it gets worse every year and still nothing is being done. *sigh*

Are you safe? Any fires near you?

We are. Send those torrential rains our way...

Stay safe, Mel!
If I could, I would! Y’all could sure use them, and we sure as F don’t. Maybe I can have an epic mixing and build/wick session to pass the time.

    Oooooh Dvarw DL no. 3 has shipped from FT. I'm now filling up another cart. Tempted to get another Juggerknot Mini rta - but I also like the look of the new Vandy Vape Kylin Mini v2 RTA. There's so few single coil top airflow RTAs available now:

    He wasn't that far off--in his clumsy, stupid way. :facepalm:

    This is from the Scientific American:

    California Looks to Battle Mega Wildfires with Fire

    "Suppression has left forests throughout the West unnaturally crowded with small trees and shrubs—ready tinder for larger, far more damaging conflagrations. California’s forests are even more vulnerable because more than 147 million drought-weakened trees have died statewide since 2010, leaving them primed to burn. Because of these and other factors, such as poor management practices and warmer temperatures from climate change, the extent of fires that escape even the most aggressive suppression has increased fivefold over the past five decades."

    And now I'm done with the subject.

    Back on topic. Sorry for the interruption.

    If you have these boysenberry flavours - try them together with some cream. FLV Boysenberry needs a good 7 day steep - then it loses its candyness taste and blossoms into a rich dark berry. VTA Boysenberry is damn good even as a S&Vp

    While we work on the panels it sits on the kitchen floor.

    Oh, and it's a little...large.

    Sweet [emoji106] I went tuxedo, though normally get black mods.

    What is the status of your Mixx? I wanted to preorder one from Sourcemore but I'm afraid we may not get them in time. Any thoughts?

    Might want to look up some reviews on the kylin 1st Ange. The one I watched he loved everything but the flavor output.

    It is the drought. Simply the drought. Everything in California is dried up. That and climate change.
    My input.
    from Historian Heather Cox Richardson
    California is in the midst of a brutal heat wave, and has been hit by 560 fires, many of them sparked by lightning. Some of the fires have come together to create two dozen large and complex conflagrations. Land the size of Rhode Island has been burned over, six people have died in the fires, and one hundred thousand Californians have been evacuated from their homes. Air quality is dangerously bad.
    California’s ability to fight the fires has been hampered by a lack of prison inmates, who have been used to fight fires since the 1940s. Usually the state can mobilize 192 inmate firefighting crews, but this year, the coronavirus has thinned their ranks both from disease and from release, as the state sent inmates home to relieve crowded facilities and slow the virus’s spread. Less than half the crews are available this year.
    Inmate firefighters make up to $5.12 a day (that’s not a typo) and earn two days off their prison sentence for each day firefighting. Each year, they provide about 3 million hours of emergency response time to the state.

    Need to take Em for a walk and get away from the phone...just made a BCF order. I justified the 12th flavor by assuming they maybe couldn't count well and needed to make sure I got my free one.:facepalm:
    For those that don't know right now BCF has a buy 10 get 1 free. No code needed, just add any flavor of your choice to the cart. Code VU6 will get you an additional 6% off.

    I liked the Kylin M, great vape when it was not giving burnt hits. I tried, really I did. Wicked it so tight and still burnt hits. Not worth the chance.
    To be fair they made huge improvements in regards to the deck. Needs very long legs though, 7mm.
