shari, you can move the router/modem power cord if you want. just know it will take ~2 minutes to come back online. (should be less than 5 for the modem and phone to come back. i dont deal with cable phones anymore, it took less than 5 for comcast to re-connect after a power failure, but it should have a battery in it to keep it from taking so long). as long as the unknown cord is the pc power you can move it. if its the desktop power please PLEASE power off the pc before unplugging the power. (you have no clue how many times i have heard people yank out the power cord to a pc while its still on then freak out when they have data loss)

That's a great place to start from. Thx. My main craving is for a true fresh banana. That's so strange because I would have never guessed I'd like a banana flavor in anything before I started vaping. I'm also guilty of being intrigued by premixed still. Free State Vapors has a little sale this weekend. Don't ask how many bottles of eliquid I have. :facepalm: What do they call that? A juice or flavor hoarder? I should be buying straight nic for the vapacoplyse instead.

GOOD NEWS! My phone charged finally (whew). I didn't do anything. It fixed itself. Those are the best fixes.

dependin on which vendor ur playin with,
i was messing with FW i did a

8% strawberry
3% banana
2% coconut
1.5% sucrolose
3-4 drops of lemon juice for a 30ml bottle that is it was ok to me but i want the PNC as u know lol

*Edit* if ur using VZ SC i wud suggest
2.5% strawberry
1% banana
.5% coconut
1.5% sucrolose
3-4 drops lemon juice from the plastic lemon from walmart but u can work around these %'s to ur liking

Just an FYI:

@ "Karen" - OH MY - I really dislike telling you this . . . Hoever, I think I mention earlier, that is what happens . . . Once "You're" approved as being disabled SS does go back to the day "You" put in an application, but the first 6 months are deducted for everyone - No Exceptions . . . Nothing you or lawyer can do . . .So I hope it is only 5 months like you posted . . . :(

@ "Shari - Since "You're" already going through all this trouble - might I suggest Ya' just bite the bullet and shut everything off, take all the plugs/cords out, and start all over fresh and new . . . But this time label everything as Ya' set it up where "You" want it to be . . . Wouldn't it be less fraustrating . . . Just Sayin' . . . :facepalm:

OK - I think it's time for "Me" to shut-up and go back to "LURKING" . . . :rolleyes:

Sane? Here????
:laugh:

I'm on a hunt for strawberry, banana, cocoanut.
Not candy-like. My fruit cravings change around.
Always hunting for the best coffee, vanilla and carmels.

Killer Juice Ripe Strawberry tastes just like a fresh one straight from the garden. I grow my own strawberries for my wife and kids and we pick them and they never make it into the house. When I first tried KJ version the open bottle had the scent of fresh cut ones awaiting the sugar or dip. The taste is spot on to the real thing and leaves a very pleasant scent in the room. The mix is 60pg/40vg but if you want a different mix just use the "contact us" link, include your order number and tell him what mix you want. His flavorings are pg based so getting a true 100% by mix isn't possible, 90% max if memory serves.

Uncle, just want to give you an update. My friend is still using the cigalikes and was very appreciative of the 2 that look like cigarette packs. Those are like the 1 I gave him before. The cappecino flavored one he tried and made ugly faces. lol So I guess he is a straight tobacco vaper. He is still smoking but has cut down considerably since having his little cigalikes. I was able to give him a bottle of Indigo Oohrah and he is putting a drop of that at a time in the cartridges once they are empty. So, thank you again.

I know I should start from scratch with the computer cords, etc. but I am just too afraid I will not remember how everything is set up. Too much crawling around under the desk and moving of heavy stuff. The computer and internet works and all that is left is that printer so I am not going to tempt fate.

One of my problems is I'm discovering a new 100% VG juice vendor every month. A year ago there wasn't enough to count on one hand that also had interesting specialty flavors / mixes. That's why I was getting into DIY (other reason is funds). But that list has more than doubled since with some interesting mixes / good reviews. Most of them are claiming to use propietary flavorings though and as far as I can tell, that's probably true. I'm actually kinda glad I'm not doing PG finally. I'd really be in trouble then. I cursed it until a few months ago.

I love Banana too! Gotta try some from different companies, so far I have High Desert Vapes Banana Pudding, and a few more that Thaya sent me to taste I am loving them! So, I will be on a Banana quest myself.


removed FAcebook info at a special friends request! Thank you for reminding me! LUV YA!

Whelp.. ive managed to utterly tick off a store owner on facebook. told me to close his site and wait a few minutes and refresh it. page led me to a "You have been blocked from this website" message. i had ordered a sampler from the company, and when talking to the store owner i asked if i could trade one of the flavors for something else as i really dont care for banana flavor. he started talking about new flavors he is working on and said he would swap it for me. order arrives and i have the flavor i didnt care for. called him and mentioned it and he apologized and sent me the new flavor and some others to try. i liked them. gave him my honest opinion of the flavors i have been using recently (addicted to one flavor and can hardly taste it now since i have used 4 tank in a row of it.). then mentioned a error i found on the website. the page titles (the part at the very top of the browser and what it says in the tabs) was wrong on a few flavors. asked if he could correct them when he has time. told me that nobody notices it and it had no use to be fixed as it has 0 relevancy to the product on the page. i pointed out that it shows in the tabs and how i open several tabs at once and if the title is wrong i end up closing the wrong tab. he then says to close the site and he will not let me bait him into an argument over the little things. and unfriends me and blocks me then unblocks me to send a message back.

i have no idea what i did to upset him so much. not sure ill do business with him now from such a reaction to me giving honest review of flavors that he asked for. (had said to tell him if a flavor sucks and that its ok if i dump a bottle he will rework the flavor) i liked almost all the flavors, the ones i didnt like were either a flavor i dont like period, or just needed a bit sweeter taste in my opinion. and for pointing out errors on the site. i would think it would be appreciated to have them pointed out?

Banned??? :laugh: That's ridiculous.

Most ppl with a website appreciate hearing about errors. They can't see everything in every combination possible and it's like typos. No biggie. He actually maybe inept at computers enough that he hit the wrong button when you were "unfriended" (I'm kinda glad no one knew that word when I was in school lol). He may have had a bad night, a fight with his wife, who knows. Tomorrow might be different. I'd hate to imagine what he would've done if you hadn't liked his juices ... He does live on the opposite coast right?

kinda hard to be opposite coast when you are in illinois. lol. and it may just be a bad night as he posted in the companys facebook page that he is not the only person working there and certain questions should be directed to certain people. (NOWHERE was website/IT mentioned...)

I bet the website didn't mention "moody" either. :laugh:

Some of these juice makers really think they are artists and not businessmen. That vendor needs to grow a thicker skin if he wants to stay in business. If he bans everyone who does not like a juice or tries to help by pointing out an error on the website, he will not be in this business for the long haul. Try him in a week or when you are ready to reorder and if he is the same, just find another vendor. It is not like there are few choices of who to give your money to.

A lot of people that tell you to be honest and tell them if you do not like their product really do not mean what they say. I have run into a couple of vendors that think they are doing you a favor by selling you their product. I steer clear of them. Don't need the drama.

Az doesn't do daylight savings,
so your all even further ahead.

Wonder why :confused:
Maybe they're worried all the old people living there will forget to turn the clocks back again - like turning off turn signals :p

I don't do time zones and such I'm on "lox standard time"
I figure the world revolves around ME so wherever I am THATS what time it is everywhere :D

JJ,

Have you tried using saline instead of lemon juice? I have used lemon juice to perk up a mix, but the scuttlebut is that it also kills the flavor after a little bit of time (only used it in an atty-mix, so don't know for sure)

I haven't tried saline myself, but I will!

Also, I got that Pineapple Upside-Down cake flavor from MBV. It worries me; there's a powder that settles out of the liquid; i've been reluctant to try it. Even with a good shake, its back again the next day. Perhaps I'll just leave what settles out in the bottle. Can't figure out what it could be, though, there isn't cinnamon in PUD cake, and I don't think it could be brown sugar, any ideas?
