Thank you Gary....way to many PMs. :lol:

I won't PM you buddy, the atty was more than enough and pretty stand up move I must say. But I do wanna know in time as you're using garys juice, how it takes its toll on your hardware compared to the real bb. Just something in the real bb that dont vaporize completely and gunks up pretty quick, if garys clone turns out to be a thinner more tank friendly vape while not losing the taste of bb we all know n love, then I would be very interested in it along with a couple thousand other folks I imagine

Ever wonder what human flesh tastes like, Alice? I confess that I've been curious.
Hard to find any outside information on it. It's easy to run across somebody that says "Yeah, I've had dog before" or "Cat isn't too bad if it's cooked right" or "I'd take horse over beef any day".
Never seem to engage a person in a conversation who openly states "I ate some of this guy for awhile when times were hard".
I don't know why but I've never heard it.

The one known, "civilized" eating of human flesh was back in maybe the 70's when a group of winter sports athletes' (I'd have to look it up but not taking time now - and I think it was 70's) plane went down, in mountains, Himalayas, I think. They survived on eating dead teammates. Another famous was in US, in 80 hundreds or so, group of people crossing mountains and got caught in blizzard. There have been documentaries and movies made about both. A friend of mine, eldest son of my good friend who has the Spider Monkey Rescue and Habitat, in Yucatan, has partaken of eating live monkey brains, in Africa. He was somewhat forced into partaking. He's quite "international" with citizenship in three countries, Germany, America, and Spain, and was married, for a while to a really, really feisty woman with African tribe mother and Euro father. After her parents split her mother went back to the tribe. She spent much of her childhood in European Boarding Schools but definitely had enough "tribal" formative years influence that being her buddy was highly recommended. (She is quite light skinned. She later married an American Irishman Redhead, and has several children by him. Going through some countries, in Europe and Africa, has/does create issues/holdups/temp detentions, because of the red head children she is claiming are hers.)(She speaks about 10 languages, including several African languages/dialects, btw... Very interesting woman!!)

Just like any meat a lot of the taste and sometimes texture depends heavily on what the diet of the meat is. Lots of people in East Texas capture wild boar and feed them corn for a while before slaughter to make the meat taste better. Wild squirrel, another East Texas delicacy, deep fried, but has to be gutted properly, depends heavily on what their diet is. Mine out here would be awfully yummy because they eat so much corn, sunflower seeds, and peanuts. And they are bordering on obese!!!

I'll look up the two "recent" "civilized" human cannibalism incidents.

Hugs, Feisty Alice

I've heard human meat referred to as 'long pig' before, so I'd assume it tastes something like pork. And, even though it's a work of fiction, in Gangs of New York, the Butcher tells Amsterdam that a pig is as close to a person as you can get.

Don't worry.
I'm not gonna eat you guys.
You're the only friends I've got.
:)
Big of you. Me, I make no promises.

I knew a guy who as a young man hunted monkeys, told stories about monkeys eating humans too. Needless to say I'll never go into the jungle alone. Btw, he didn't have a chance to explain what monkey meat tasted like......I had heard enuf :facepalm:

Most of the rescue Spider Monkeys, that my friend takes in, come from the Mayans ritual hunting and eating Spider Monkeys. Mothers carrying babies are easier prey. Although they are pretty large when mature they are lean and stingy, all muscle, but not a lot of meat.

The Spider Monkey Adults have canines larger than any GIANT working dog I've ever been around. When they attack, most usually the males, they go straight for the throat.

Just add some distilled water Pat?

Or adjust the calculator mentioned above to be more PG. Mine comes out at about 25% PG. AVE is 0% PG. I have nic base in both PG and VG.

Since I'm rambling about DIY, I think these are a must. There is no way I'm counting out a 100+ drops of something. I'd get interrupted, and I can't count that high.
2ml & 10ml Graduated Pipettes and a 10ml pipette pump. I didn't buy from the linked vendor. I bought local, and I like glass pipettes better than the linked plastic ones. Very easy to make precise measurements. I bought mine from ScienceCompany, they're local, but more expensive.

Jack has weird taste. Scavenging birds taste gross!!! Every wonder where, "eat crow" came from?

That is why I choose not to eat Bear where I live so many of them dine at local garbage dumps and that's just icky.

I beleive the movie/book was called Alive.

If you're not hung up on precision (and in DIY, I'm not), 20 drops = 1ml.

Did your bank tell you these were fraudulent online purchase only, or were there any "swiped" purchases? I got hit also. I thought it was from an ecig vendor. Turned out a number were local, in-person swiped purchases. I got hit by someone with a scanning device that picked up my card info. It was not an ecig vendor...

Does this mean all the rendezvouses and the trip to Europe we planned on match.com are not going to happen now? :)

Mine was a online and someone from Ireland.:blink:

All of ours have been online but one. DH dropped his "employee" card, on my business account, at DFW airport. Next day there were several swipe purchases for NYC Transit system; several hundred dollars.

I think it pretty much depends on what type of dropper you're using, Dave. I've got a in my 30ml glass bottles that are 27 drops per ml, and when dropping out of Capella bottles it's around 37 drops per ml.

Of course I make all my juices in 55 gallon quantities so I pretty much don't worry about drops... I use buckets.

20 drops of what? They all have different densities? I agree that i am not much fussed if i use 50/50 of this and that and then add some flavour. But i prefer to measure it out properly since it's the only way i can really replicate a recipe.

I suppose it's like cooking (and i suck at that too) but i am not my wife who has been doing it for years and just "knows" that'll be ok! You ought to see how long it takes me to make a cake one day, when you have nothing left to live for!

gary or anyone good @ diy, do you know if they make any idiotproof nicotine test kits so I can see how much nic is in the juices I order from vendors, along with the older juices sitting around my place (you know, to see how much nic may have degraded)..

I haven't heard of an idiotproof one yet, just one where you mix some chemicals, gauge some colors, and do some math. I haven't tried it because I've always had a problem with colors.

Like I said, if you're not hung up on precision. There are plenty of factors like the size of the dropper and the viscosity of the liquid and the humidity in the air and and and. I cut corners when I DIY.
