I was about to buy two, but the site was wonky and wouldn’t let me proceed. So I bought that handbag and a AsMODus Flow pod.

I’m also interested in that Pasito.

Just bought an EHPro Kayfun Lite Plus v2. Probably paid too much, but I don't care.

Bravo...said like a true shiny

So FT did arrive today. Too bad there's nothing exciting in it. Bits and bobs, extra glass, some rda caps (can't use those metal caps on these little 22 mm rdas I have burn marks on my inside lip) and whatnot. Grabbed a wasp nano rda because it was cheap and I had that July 4th code. Built it. Works. About as much good as I can say about it. I guess it was worth the price but I have clones that were a few dollars more that are better machined and finished.

Now I realized I need to place a juice order. Won't have all my mixing supplies and proper freezer space until end of September (long uninteresting story just one of those things) so I need retail until then. Oh well, I'll try to figure out how to get the most juices from as few vendors as possible so I don't waste a fortune on shipping). It's like solving a traveling salesman problem.

I’m “patiently” tracking my cold steel... I found our orders on google earth . Making progress !!!

Ah, but mine is coming from the US warehouse, you'll probably see yours before I see mine.

 

[Daniel Forsyth]

oh and was it @Daniel Forsyth that was looking to get a Luna? they're currently $29.99 on there

I've been having a look and thinking and looking again and thinking again
I'll decide Soon, I must get my new Galaxies RTA first though

 

[Fredman1]

Do all y'all really read every post here? I

Yep, as I don't read newspapers, its my morning wakeup.... together with the coffee ofcourse

I don't know how much of this years TDF you watched but I was disappointed with how they handled stage 19. That morning they knew the weather was going to get bad and IMO should have had a "real" plan in place at the start of 19 in fairness to all. The Gendarmerie were pulled off and notified of the impending weather long before the tour officials had a clue it seemed. I'm happy for Bernal but I do believe he was gifted le tour. Alaphilippe was robbed but his time will come. I was pulling for him. The kid is a real firecracker and fighter...just the type France needs.

I watched (and loved) each and every second. My sleeping pattern are completely blown now....
Best TDF by far I ever watched. Yeah i'm a Alaphilipe fan to. Almost cried when he lost the Jersey. The weather was different from one valley to the next. They couldn't have predicted that, so for me they made the right call.
I never supported the Sky team...neither Eneos, but i'm glad for the kid. So humble and innocent looking. He was the strongest in the Alps, and that's where the winner was decided. To be fair Alaphilipe would've blown up on that stage anyway and lost more time than he did.... I think the weather actually saved him...but he's still my hero !!!
My other favorite was Pinot. He maybe could've done it in that mountains, but we'll have to wait till next year.
All in all had a fantastic time. Like I said...this was the most open and exiting race...a true spectical.

My camo Solo is in house. Sorry, no pic as I'm in the process of moving. I love it

 

[NolaMel]

When I looked, it was already gone from the US warehouse . I’ve had pretty zippy shipping from the one here, so I was bummed. I know it’ll be at least two weeks before I see the one from China

 

[ShowMeTwice]

I've dipped in and out as I usually do with the tour. Yes an unfortunate incident all round up in the Alpes. To be fair though you wouldn't have thought in a million years that the weather was going to take that kind of turn in mid summer....even if it was in the Alpes

I wish Bernal all the luck in the world...great for his hometown and country. The usual story with the rules....apple carts can easily get tipped up and end up rolling the wrong way

The temp chez nous is much better.....today was the perfect summer day 29 degrees and 23 in the house....lovely. Hope everything is good for you too

All good here too, nice and pleasant out with temps in the lower 80's or mid 20's for you.
It was crazy in the Alpes seeing snow plows in summer. Apple carts or cows crossing the road, all fair by the rules. Or road furniture and France has a lot. Looks like Bernal will be a force to be reckoned with for many years to come. I wonder what Sky/Ineos is going to do with three possible GC'ers in Froome, Bernal and Thomas going forward. I can't imagine those three wanting to stay on the same team. We'll see I guess.

I DVR'ed it daily here because of commercials every few minutes. It was a great TDF and yes the most wide open in years. I've never been a fan of Sky. And Pinot, I feel for him, he hasn't finished a grand tour in a few years from what they said on TV. I wanted Alaphilippe to win and if not then Pinot. Given that everyone was saying that Alaphilippe was going to lose the jersey in the Alpes I was then seriously pulling for Pinot to take it all. Bernal is a good kid and so talented. Next year will be great and I will be cheering for Alaphilippe and/or Pinot again. Now I only hope they give us the Vuelta here instead of some fishing show. Although worst case I can tune in online.

Happy to see yours arrived safe and sound.
Mine never arrived but that's what I figured. No biggie, it will make it here soon.
When we bought our house the last owner left us a fully functional refrigerator/freezer in our basement. That was back in July 1990 and it is still going strong. It's perfect for my nic storage.

Happy Monday, shinies.

I'm starting off the week with my Aftermath V2 and an excellent root beer float flavor. Tracking info shows my new Unicorn CC landing tomorrow and my new Crossbones/Unholy combo following closely on Thursday. I've probably looked at the tracking info ten times today. Got that new mech feel

 

[Fredman1]

Froome, Bernal and Thomas

Yeah these three needs to be split, but I don't think that'll happen....money talks. Will make for a much a better race in future. Will be interesting to see what happens.

I’m also interested in that Pasito.

Lol! Yes I’ve heard great feedback for the Pasito & the rba option.

I bought 1 Luna from Sourcemore.

 

[Skunk!]

Little reminder of why I prefer plastic vape gear for out and about... Metal cap burned my lips.

Edit: temp now reads 118° but the phone says it's too hot to take pictures.

 

[ShowMeTwice]

Via email... Roadside Vapes is offering a Snubnose RDA for $22.95 (reg $64.95). I don't know anything about it but some of you may. Not for me but thought I'd pass it on just in case.

ETA: link Snubnose RDA by VPRS (Authentic)

It is like a Derringer but supposedly a little better. Came out around the same time. I doubt if it is squonkable but I am not positive on that...

 

[Rob B.]

Yes I must admit it's a full time job....nearly Having said that though I didn't realise it was about the busiest thread in the forum....until today. Just goes to show that there are some very serious shinyitus cases around here........we need help

I am confused with the notifications delivery system of this forum. I am in this thread(shinyitis support group) multiple times a day along with the Picture of Your Setup Part 3 thread. The email notifications sometimes come when there is a new post, but I have to renew my subscription just about every day, even though I always click the links in the email notification and visit the thread. Does anyone else have this experience?
