Hey TT hows everything? BTW I think someone should start a thread on how many folks lose their drip tips! I have lost 4 in the past 24 hours. I was thinking......what would TT do?

Hi Sdh,

Gosh, I admire women of intelligence and wisdom like you. So rare, so rare. Wondering what TT would do... about lost Drip Tips.

The first thing I would do is find somebody to blame. A spouse is usually good for this purpose if you happen to have one laying around. Make it clear that your not declaring "fault" just assigning "blame." Under no circumstance explain the difference. You may need to revert to "fault" later.

If you are lacking a spouse laying around we keep SecondChance, Brutus and K-Space available as substitutes.

Always read the manual that comes with your drip tips.


IMPORTANT! READ THIS BEFORE USING YOUR NEW DRIP TIP. Congratulations! You have purchased an extremely fine device that would give you thousands of years of trouble-free service, except that you undoubtedly will destroy it or lose it via some typical bone-head consumer maneuvers. Which is why we ask you to: PLEASE FOR GOD'S SAKE READ THIS OWNER'S MANUAL CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU UNPACK THE DRIP TIP. YOU ALREADY UNPACKED IT, DIDN'T YOU? YOU UNPACKED IT AND PLUGGED IT IN TO YOUR CARTO OR ATTY AND TURNED IT ON AND FIDDLED WITH IT, AND NOW YOUR CHILD, THE SAME CHILD WHO ONCE SHOVED A POLISH SAUSAGE INTO YOUR VIDEOCASSETTE RECORDER AND SET IT ON "FAST FORWARD", THIS CHILD ALSO IS FIDDLING WITH THE DRIP TIP, RIGHT? WE MIGHT AS WELL JUST BREAK THESE DEVICES RIGHT AT THE FACTORY BEFORE WE SHIP THEM OUT, YOU KNOW THAT?!?


We're sorry. We just get a little crazy sometimes because we're always getting back "defective" merchandise OR CLAIMS FOR LOST DRIP TIPS where it turns out that the consumer inadvertently bathed the device in acid for six days.

So, in writing these instructions, we naturally tend to assume that your skull is filled with dead insects, but we mean nothing by it. OK? Now let's talk about:


1. UNPACKING THE DRIP TIP. The device is encased in foam to protect it from the Shipping People, who like nothing more than to jab spears into outgoing boxes. PLEASE INSPECT THE CONTENTS CAREFULLY FOR GASHES OR IDA MAE BARKER'S ENGAGEMENT RING, WHICH SHE LOST LAST WEEK, AND SHE THINKS MAYBE IT WAS WHILE SHE WAS PACKING DEVICES. Ida Mae really wants that ring back because it is her only proof of engagement, and her fiancee, Stuart, is now seriously considering backing out on the whole thing in as much as he had consumed most of a bottle of Jim Beam in Quality Control when he decided to pop the question. It is not without irony that Ida Mae's last name is "Barker", if you get our drift.

WARNING: DO NOT EVER AS LONG AS YOU LIVE THROW AWAY THE BOX OR ANY OF THE PIECES OF STYROFOAM, EVEN THE LITTLE ONES SHAPED LIKE PEANUTS. If you attempt to return the device to the store, and you are missing one single peanut, the store personnel will laugh in the chilling manner exhibited by Joseph Stalin just after he enslaved Eastern Europe. Besides the device, the box should also contain:
* Eight little rectangular snippets of paper that say "WARNING - DO NOT LOSE"
* A little plastic packet containing four 5/17 inch pilfer grommets and two club-ended 6/93 inch boxcar prawns. YOU WILL NEED TO SUPPLY: a matrix wrench and a hammer, pliers, a sharp knife and a can opener.

IF ANYTHING IS DAMAGED OR MISSING: You IMMEDIATELY should turn to your spouse and say "Margaret, you know why this country can't make a car that can get all the way through the drive-through at Burger King without a major transmission overhaul? Because nobody cares ... that's why.

"WARNING: This is assuming your spouse's name is Margaret. And not Pete."

2. PLUGGING IN THE DRIP TIP. The plug on this device represents the latest thinking of the E-Cig's industry's Plug Mutation Group, which, in a continuing effort to prevent consumers from causing hazardous electrical current to flow through their e-cig appliances, developed the Falling Out Plug, then the Plug where you can't get the Drip Tip to fit. Your device is equipped with the revolutionary new Plug Which Consists of Six Small Religious Figurines. DO NOT TRY TO PLUG IT IN! Lay it gently on the floor near an outlet, but out of direct sunlight, and clean it weekly with a damp handkerchief.

WARNING: WHEN YOU ARE LAYING THE DRIP TIP ON THE FLOOR, DO NOT HOLD A SHARP OBJECT IN YOUR OTHER HAND AND TRIP OVER THE E-CIG AND POKE YOUR EYE OUT, AS THIS COULD VOID THE WARRANTY.

3. OPERATION OF THE DRIP TIP. WARNING: WE MANUFACTURE ONLY THE ATTRACTIVE DESIGNER CASE. THE ACTUAL WORKING CENTRAL PARTS OF THE DEVICE ARE MANUFACTURED IN JAPAN/CHINA OR WISCONSIN. THE INSTRUCTIONS WERE TRANSLATED BY MRS. SHIRLEY PELTWATER OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, WHO HAS NEVER ACTUALLY BEEN TO JAPAN, CHINA OR WISCONSIN BUT DOES HAVE MOST OF "SHOGUN" ON TAPE.

INSTRUCTIONS: For results that can be the finest, it is our advising that you take care not to lose your Drip Tip.

TT Drip Tip Mfg. Co. China/Japan/Wisconsin

Hope this helps you Sdh. If you need more information, please let me know.

TT

Holy dictionary T-man, that is alot of words. Most of them are pretty, but I couldn't hold them all in one place long enough to understand. I'll try again in the morning. You were an engineer weren't you! A wonderful Word Engineer perhaps!?

No, I tried hard not to work and was generally unemployed, under-qualified, over-qualified, uninterested, unavailable, or a guest of the Great State of Texas.

Sorry I keep missing you, Mr. T. I was there, opened up the scotch, drank til my teeth fell out, slid under the sofa, (by the way, when was the last time you cleaned under there---I found Jimmy Hoffa and Amelia Earhart). Finally sobered up, got up and read that long post. By the end of the post, I realized I had turned a year older, so I have tottered off to my own house now. I am so glad you found my teeth.....keep losing them in inopportune places. Last ones went down the garbage disposal. Whole new meaning to chattering teeth. Please keep them for me--preferrably stored in a glass of Grey Goose. I will be back, then we can sit out and watch the bug zapper.

Pleased to talk to you in person, Tex. And sorry about the Mr. T---supposed to be used for elders only, and I don't personally know any of them elderly so it was a slip of the fingers. Glad to make your acquaintance.......I can tell from your posts, we are going to become bffs. I love your house and all the people who hang here.......so much better than the asylum where I was hanging out. Man, those people were nuts--never got any of my teeth back from them.

OK--happy mixing, Salem. And I wonder if his wife works at one of those quick implant places......Jiffy Boob.

Hope Pokey gets to feeling better quickly.

I need to get busy myself--we have tickets to dinner and a show in the west suburbs (Chicago) and dh is insisting I shower even tho it is never on my agenda on Saturday.

Hope y'all have a great day.
