Who? Me? I don't work, nobody wants me - my 'boss' is my lovely wife, and I loved being bossed around by her! On disability due to too many things wrong with me. Why just the last 12 months:
new right knee
rebuilt left shoulder
tubes in both ears
CTS surgery both wrists
Everything they look at is broke - so the secret is to not say anything anymore. People are recognizing me at pre-surgical testing and such. One more chest x-ray and I get a free 12" sub~!

Yipes.......sorry ya have to deal with all that.......but that's the best boss to have. Great employee benefits!!

No kidding Peter I agree with Debadoo. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

Thanks for the compliments on the Infinity. I'll probably get a controller for it some day or see if I can adapt a dna 40 into it.
And sell them for a bundle!

I would.

Peter.... Hang in there. I'll bet your boss agrees with me. I know some things.

I have to say that I'm thrilled with the new (11mm) stainless steel hybrid tips. It's been so long since I've had a one-piece that I had forgotten how spoiled I had been by them. I think I'm going to fill a few more tanks now!

And KD - it's DEFINITELY time we change the wraps. C'mon girl, please? ;)
I need one of these in my life!!!

DP, you forgot to mention that they sell out in minutes! So, no bathroom breaks (or blinking).

Thoughts so far on my beautiful new Fawkes:

Well, first of all, I found a drip-tip that matches.

Perfect tip for that beautiful color. Looks gorgeous!:)


I have a very large collection of tanks and I love everything about them. Up until the aspire BVC coils I never quite got clearos so carto tanks were fill in the morning and just vape all day. How hard can it be. However the aspire BVC were a game changer (for me anyway) but I didn't like the tanks they go in. I wanted to use all my carto tanks. That's why the tinkering.

I also have a beautiful collection of carto tanks:wub:. I can't part with them. I still use them now and again, but I would be thrilled to be able to use them with a coil.:) Yoo hoo!! Calling tinker-stud?!! :laugh:

I wonder if they will come up with this in a different medium for the tip? I honestly don't care much for the metal tip feel in my mouth, but love the idea otherwise. And I never got to see the wraps you two have on right now! pics?? I LOVE pics!:D

Don't know yet. It's in the mail on the way from Texas. TT said he liked it a lot. It was from the Co-op that they just had. Gotta start watching those Co-ops a little more. Here's an end view. The readout is on the front, right in the lower center.

Got the old BB back from DD today. All fixed up and he even threw in a good set of batteries! He included a note and said the batteries I had just gotten from RTD were indeed "much longer than they are supposed to be" and "over 35mm" and are what caused the damage to the battery contacts. He kept them and is going to try and see what's wrong with them. I'm not saying not to buy from RTD but to check ANY battery you buy from ANY vendor. They are all made in china and we all know what kind of manufacturing standards and practices they have over there. My hats off to DD for going above and beyond expectations in keeping his customers happy. :toast:

I had already sent RTD an email and posted their reply earlier in this thread. Just want to make sure everyone checks their batteries no matter who they buy them from. No vendor can check every single one that comes through their doors. I was a little disappointed that their answer was only that they've had no complaints, they vary in length and to check with the device manufacturer. I would think they'd at least check a few random batteries to see if they did get a bad batch in.

For those wondering about the BBs size here's a shot I took after getting my first one. That's a pack of 100's next to it.

View attachment 422720

It's almost exactly the size of a pack of kings.

Now THAT is an absolute TRIP. :)

Oh, COOLio! Do you like Pho?? We could time it so I can take my lunch when you are there. 2 or 3...around there.:)

Who the heck is Pho and why would you let him join you for lunch? Tell Pho to get his own dayum food.

Sounds like a plan.

Envy. Can I come? I'll sit in Pho's chair. Screw him anyway.
