Thanks for the update LD! Hope you and Abi can fight off your colds.
It is fun to make your own e-liquid. I hope you read the thread Salem was talking about!
Nothing new with me either...except I have my baby working. (VV buzz) I just rigged it up. However, I know my fix is a quick one. I need that little crimped on thingie that runs from the red wire to the screw. I think its called a compression lug. I gave up on finding one after a long Google search.

My back still hurts. If it does not get any better in one week I promised I would go to MD. (However, I hate docs , therefore I may not keep my promise.)
You could solder the wire to the existing lug and use some shrink tube or liquid black tape to secure it.

Good Idea mod! I will have to ask DH if he has any solder? I know we tried electrical tape....LOL. It didn't work. I didn't think I would ever get it to work. I cannot survive without VV.

Hey gang, we made it to Tucson and had a beautiful day.
I'm on this little bitty keyboard so I'm not going to post much, mainly wanted to let y'all know we made it.
We found an old dirt road down near Marana up into the Saguaro National Park and of course we had to explore it. Mrs.TT took 141 beautiful pics. I'll get some uploaded to Photobucket and posted as soon as I can.

Hey salem, I read Kurt's Thread. Scary stuff!

Gummy Bear, rest that eye and by all means, keep your eye meds well away from your e-juice! Don't confuse them! I prefer to rest both eyes at the same time, but have become quite expert at resting them one at a time. I keep everybody fooled that way!

Since this is so hard to type on, I'm going to sign off but will be back to see if your talking about me. I sure hope so!

TT

It is very scary indeed. I just got done listening to an interview that Cozzicon did on Vape TV with Kurt and Brad from Box Elder that lasted for hours. The CEO of BE did not represent himself very well IMO but Kurt did a great job at representing the vaping community IMO.

I have had a nic test kit that I got from Ebay about a month ago. I have not used it yet but am going to start. I have not used BE nic in months and am pretty glad of it :)

I am glad to hear that you are having a good time in Tucson and will look forward to seeing the pictures :)

Edit- But seriously folks need to start testing the nic level in the vendor bought juice as well as any nicotine that they buy. Who knows if any vendors got some of the batch that was 272 mgs or if there was more than one batch like it. Since every batch tested was wrong I would suspect that there is alot more floating around out there. Good news is that many vendors have contacted Kurt about having the testing done for them so this may be just the wake up call that the vaping community needed to prevent someone from getting seriously sick or worse.

Radio Shack should have something that would work to replace the wire.

That's where I get all my wire nuts, connectors, etc. for restoring the arcade machines. Most of the Radio Shacks still have that big organizer box, in the back, with all the different connectors and such in it.

Thanks for well wishes Sd. We are fighting the colds with my mom's cold remedies. :)

Yes, I am enjoying the DIY stuff. Just lots o fun! ;-)

I did read the thread that Salem was talking about. I am really glad that I got my Nic from RTS! It is good quality stuff, and they are offering to have their stuff tested. Not only that, they asked that it be ordered without their knowledge of knowing who and what it was for. This way, they can't fake the test by sending out "special" Nic juice. It was nice to read. I also get some Nic juice from OSDIY, and hear that they are good quality and test their Nic juice as well. BE, I am never going to order from, after all of this.

I am glad to hear that your baby is working. After having my Infinity, I know what it is like to go without... and that was only for a few hours! I am glad that I got a backup. :) I am sure you will do a good job getting it back together. Just remember, when you are ready to replace it, the Infinity Pro is nice!

Well, I am off to bed everyone. I need to get some sleep. Long and busy day tomorrow. Plus, lots of crazy mixed in!

Besides, I need to rest my back. I've already had one surgery. I am avoiding another one for as long as I can. Sd, I feel for you. Having back issues sucks! Go to the doctor though. It can help.

Good morning all.

LD- I sure hope that you and Abi start feeling better soon :) I could not agree with you more that back issues suck! I too have had failed back surgery and many, many other procedures done on my back.

I hope that everyone has a great day today and I will bbl

Hello everyone,

Thank you for all the well wishes. I did end up taking the day off of work. I wanted to let Abi stay home and get a day of rest. She is actually starting to sound better.

Oh, my Christmas gift from one of my customers arrived today. I have to admit, it is really nice. Here are a few pics for everyone to enjoy:

Oh yes, I really do love it!!! YAY!!! :D

Just a quick fly by.
I'm having ECF withdrawals. I'm trying not to stress the eye to much, so no back reading for me either today.
I have the post-op check up tomorrow. I sure hope this eye gets a lot better. The cloudiness is gone but was replaced with blurriness. And the contrast in it is still about 30 clicks to high. And I have a pic up for voting tomorrow so I will post a link to it in the morning. I did it before the surgery so,, who knows. It is in the Advanced Arena too so I don't think it will do much better than somewhere in the middle. But I have been surprised before.
