Hello Reo family

I just got a pm from Nothernshrink( Kris) asking me about starting a Paypal fund to be put in Rob's account to help him defray the cost of going to Jack's military service on the 22nd of June. I think it's a beautiful idea to have his daughter, grandkids , other relatives and his many friends to know that he also touched the lives of all of us
I just pm'd Rob to see if that's acceptable to him.


I really don't know if this is the correct thing to do, but I'm going for it.....

I talked with Pietro a while ago and he told me that he's also trying to figure out his financial situation so that he can go to Jack's memorial.....Pietro, I really hope I haven't put my big foot in my big mouth and if I have please forgive me.... so I'm thinking a fund for both Rob and Pietro. I'm not implying, please understand this, that all of us here in Reoville try to cover the full cost for them, just anything at all that we CAN AFFORDto help defray the cost.This situation is on such short notice for them.
Thank all of you for anything you can contribute.


( I'm SO not good at this type of thing) Rob sent me a pm and said he'd only feel right about this if Pietro was included.

, and I think it's true. Hats off to you!

G'morning, Scott:). How's your Sunday looking? Lucky Jan's off to meet some other ECFers, or she'd bid you a good one, too.

Thank you, Kris AND Kay! This is a great idea:)!

I only use NR wire for killer clones RHP, i never found the need for it otherwise even though i have heard of people rebuilding Vivi Nova tanks with it. It's not difficult and house mouse posted a good video on just looping it to a coil and knotting it.

ETA: misread, thought T said Valerie made a video of the coils

My grand #2 (the pretty one with Karen's cover on it) has been soaking for 24 hours in a bowl of water and detergent, after i stupidly used a 'Marlboro' flavour in it and stained the catch cup dark brown. I have been periodically scrubbing it with a small toothbrush. Seems to be working!

RY4 only for you from now on :/

I just took some of my favorite old Boswell pipe tobaccos and started turning them into ejuice. A nice pinch drenched in vg then microwaved for 7 seconds. I'll let them sit for a while and see what happens.

I'm happy to donate to get those guys to jacks service. I think that's an awesome idea to represent our little corner of his life and show some love.

Hope everyone has a great afternoon!

Thanks Inkdog. It just oc cured to me that perhaps Pietro or Rob wouldn't feel right about this, so perhaps they could take whatever funds the receive and get Jack a stupendous arrangement or something.
Any thought would be greatly appreciated.

kays heart is bigger than her head, I'll tell ya'll since I lost my dad not so long ago and that is, flowers don't help. Then we started getting all different religious solicitations, mostly mail but sometimes phone calls, like wolves .. and my mom was the prey. But I'm down for kicking up some money to his inner circle whoever needs it most. But good idea to let 'em speak for themself or consult 'em first in private.

Luv your spirit Kay

Forgive me everyone for having so many different thoughts on this, but now I'm thinking, if Rob and Pietro wouldn't feel right about having money sent to them to offset the cost of the trip, perhaps it could go towards a check for the war vets? And, if Rob or Pietro could find the time, to put each persons name on a card?

Sorry Kay I feel bad about dragging you into my convoluted plan I guess I didn't take enough time to think it through. It wasn't really about singling out anyone in particular while excluding anyone else.

Easy guys....let's not get overwhelmed by guilt and what not. It's easy to get caught up in the sorrow and the human need to share each others pain and want to do something to help everyone. No need to feel badly....it happens. Hell, I've done it a time or two myself. Take a deep breath...and relax. You all should feel good that you're wanting to do what you can ...that speaks volumes about you, each and every one. Take a day and mellow...I'm sure we can get a plan together that will satisfy everyone's needs in one way or another. Just so you know...this is the reason Jack hung his vaping hat here. :wub:

All of us know that just picking up and taking a few days off isn't cheap. I am thinking it would be nice to make the funds available to both Rob and Pietro, and what ever is left over donated to the Veteran's causes Jack felt so strongly about. I would feel very honored to have both Rob and Pietro representing us at Jack's service. Just my :2c:

No no no Kris!! NO apologies! Your heart is in the right place and we really don't have much time to honor our Jack.I was honored that you asked me! I'm just not very good at this sort of thing....as you can see by all the different ideas I keep coming up with!

JACK! get off my case! I'm doing my best! What do you expect from a damn flatlander!

My sentiments exactly, dear Jeni!
