Thank you, my poor dog is so old her idea of play now a days is to grab a toy and slowly move her head from side to side so I can't get it

Being kept by 6-10 Giant/Large house dogs for 30 years we've always had at least two rambunctious youngsters in residence, all those years, to stimulate the geriatrics. We did go about four years with all oldies until we filled the house with these five monsters, all within a year, but Ned Mastiff and Hank and Hilda Rotties were pretty active till the end as far as guarding goes but they definitely weren't into much play; just business and that took most of their energies.They still had plenty of energy for joyful, exuberant greetings when we came home. That time, before the monster Bubs, certainly was easy going as far as yard and house maintenance and noise/activity, and there are moments when I wish for it. But these guys are so much fun and the best ever snuggle Bubs, I only yearn for "all oldies" when I'm cleaning, picking up, or repairing damages...... (all on-going, 365/24/7 projects)(all those years they were mostly Mastiffs with a sprinkling of Rotties {and a Briard}. I realized it somewhat, that a herd of Mastiff house Bubs, was easy, but I didn't realize how very easy until we brought home 2 X Labradoodles and 2 X Heelers. They are sooooooooooooooo busy. They make Jake Mastiff into a more than "normal" "busy" Bub.)

Hugs for you and your "oldie," Feisty Alice

Unless your name is Shirley Maclaine you're only going to live one time... as long as it's not illegal, (immoral is left to your discretion), and you can afford it, do it now, you may not get another chance. :evil:

Sage advice. Some wise man once said (it might have been Lucas from Empire Records) 'Regret not the things you have done - only those you have not.' (paraphrased)

Pietro made me spend money and it almost killed me!!!

Whilst enjoying the unparalleled majesty of the Colorado mountains and local hospitality Pietro and I had the opportunity to have lengthy and serious discussions about women and Reos. (Okay, not so much about Reos but they did come up in passing.)

Being a man of relative small physical stature, (only 5'2", if he's wearing his favorite six-inch stiletto high heels), he is forced to carry two Reo Mini's rather than a single, real-man sized mod. Obviously this presents a problem of being limited to 3.7 volts and a somewhat weaker vape than some enjoy. The man from the sweat inducing flatlands had a solution to this which he not only shared but vigorously encouraged.

It seems that his diabolical mind came up with the idea of replacing the normal 14500 battery that delivers 3.7 volts with two, (2), 14250 batteries. I was dubious of this modification until he handed me his Mini equipped with said batteries and topped with a 3ohm carto. (He wouldn't let me touch it until I promised to use my drip tip.)

I must admit that the visitor to our great state had finally, after all these many years, come up with a great idea. The vape was wonderful, (his juice sucked but I can rectify that in a New York second), far, far superior than my dancing Mini with a single 14500.

Somewhat against my better judgement I decided to order a supply of said 14250 batteries. They arrived in vapemail yesterday.

After tearing open the envelope I discovered a problem, the batteries are the size of Timothy seeds requiring both tweezers and a magnifying glass to install them. Undeterred with the, 'some assembly required' conundrum I succeeded in the micro-surgery and settled back to enjoy vaping nirvana.

Parts of my head are still stuck to the ceiling and the doctors assure me that the coughing spasms will subside prior to spring. (They didn't commit to an actual year.)

Being older than the Redwood Forest and of feeble mind I had neglected to change my 1.7ohm shortie carto to one of higher ohm. (I blame this oversight on Pietro. I'm not sure why but given enough time I will come up with a credible reason.)

My plan is to arm myself with my Mini, loaded with the new batteries and a 3ohm Boge carto, when I go dancing tonight. I will unfortunately have to bring all 6 batteries because I don't know how much they're charged and Pietro purposely instructed me to order the WRONG battery charger so the CORRECT one hasn't arrived yet.

Assuming I survive the night, (my survival will have nothing to do with my vaping), I shall report on the overall impressions of this Mini setup.

Dan, what butterscotch flavor do you use and what percentage, please. I have some Loranns Buttered Rum that is so strong it is hard to mix it without the flavor being too strong. I have the Loranns plain butterscotch but haven't used it yet. Both are from baking section at Hobby Lobby.


Hugs, Feisty Alice
I use Flavor West Butterscotch, and it is so good. I did a %15 Flavoring on a 60vg 40pg mix this time, with a little Ethayl Maltol and TPA Sweetner. About 4 drops per 30mil. So 6 drops of each for a 30 mil bottle. I really like the flavor west stuff. You get a LOT of flavor, but it's not as concentrated..tasting? Hope that makes sense. I can't explain it, but so far they are all pretty good.

That set up also works well in my Mini Woodville with a 3ohm Shorty carto. They are a buck right now at cigtech. If you are feeling really fiesty and want to change the batteries a lot try a 1.5 dual coil atomizer on them. O my!

Attention Reonaut dog owners!

Our vet has prescribed Trifexis as a heartworm/flea/other wormies preventative for the worthless fuzzball. Where can I find the best price? Valerie told me to find out, so hence this post.

Did a google search. This is the lowest I found.
Panoramis - Trifexis

Thanks much. I understand what you are saying. With the Lorann's Buttered Rum I threw a little bit into a premade Butterscotch REO bottle, and ran out the door. A few hours of pretty miserable vaping, away from home. It took mixing that amount of the BR/B mix with about 5 times plain butterscotch before I could even stand vaping it. (By that time I was up to a 30ml bottle just calming down the flavor. I would have been better off just dumping the remains of the first 6ml bottle.) (That'll teach me to be so casual about mixing.) In that case I was reducing the over powering flavor. Just like after I "killed" almost a pint of orange flavored vodka, as a teen, and spent the rest of the night with my head hanging over a trampolene tossing my cookies and dry heaves, and didn't do any vodka for a decade, I don't know if I'll ever be able to stand Buttered Rum vape juice again no matter how good it should be.

Hugs, Feisty Alice
