It's a vanity thing Justice, and since i am ugly to begin with, i never saw much point in paying money for all the hair transplants and the rest of it.

I did marvel at those brave souls that first had hair transplants done and laughed really hard, when 20 years later they looked like a used toothbrush!

Poor Roger and Jim have to start trimming nose and ear hairs when the rest is falling out. Heck I've been trimming nose and ear hairs since my late teens early 20's heck I have hairs that grow from the tip of my nose on the outside never mind the nostril hairs. Y'all got it easy :lol:

Good evening everyone. Just doing some yard cleanup for a family dinner on Sunday. I've discovered at less than 3 yrs old Gatlin is a better pooper scooper than his half brother :lol:
Those are the nose-hairs I'm talking about, Darrel.
I feel like a schnauzer.

Thanks Jim. Since I got my 2 Grands for work mods about a month ago, it seems like I keep bypassing the mini's. Thought I'd try bringing the Ohms down slightly to see if mini's preform a little better....

You can get a similar vape from a mini - just for a shorter time obviously, since the bottle is smaller and the battery too.
Beware of cloudhounding on a mini - a theoretical 0.7Ω coil asks for 6A from your battery, and AW 14500s are rated only for 4.8A, which puts your lowest coil up to 0.9Ω.

The 1.3 ohm coil seems to be about what I want, normally go 1.5 in my mechs. Funny how such a small change can effect a vape.
Speaking of hair, I'm 55 and still have two cowlicks coming out of my crown. And I've been shedding in the shower since I was 12. My barber says I don't have anything to worry about, as he is working on my ear hairs :blink:

I can see that.
Just comb up and remember to clean the drain from time to time.

Ear hairs are easiest if you let them get long enough that you can grab them with one hand twist them together then trim them its every couple weeks for me :lol:

Well I've had my first reo, VV Grand, for a week now and I'm making myself stop using it. Until my ohm meter gets here Monday. I sat down last night to practice building coils and not one coil came out anywhere near where I was shooting for ohms wise, according to the ohm reader on my provari's at least. Every coil was below 1.0 ohms and I was shooting for 2.0. I thought using my provari's to check my ohms probably wasn't the best thing to be doing. Back to my eBaron's and 'Vari's till Monday. So bummed.

i sneeze if i rip out nose hairs. HRH kindly bought me a 'male grooming kit' which has so many attachments in it for trimming hair you'd think i was a silverback gorilla.

But the nosehair trimmer is the worst. Are you serious?? Not happening sister, scissors are fine.

So.....do you clear-cut your ear-hair or do you do selective thinning, Darrel?:)
As to my work, I've been off and on for about 6 weeks now. Lost the transmission in my skidder and the boss decided to rebuild it rather than buy a rebuilt. Hasn't worked out well because the parts needed to rebuild it have to come from CANADA and they just can't seem to get them here. Don't know why.
As to your question about dry weather shutdown, they don't seem to do that any more. They'd rather have the loggers in the woods during the dry season. We put out more fires than we ever start.
Nice talking to you again, Darrel.:)

Ever since 9-11 our border has been horrid I can get stuff from china faster than the states go figure and now that certain mind numbing agents are available in your state I'd wager many of your people aren't moving so fast even though they think they are speeding so it very well could be stateside just taking its time to get to you :lol:

Wait for the meter ? They sell Multi- Meters at Wal-Mart, Lowes. Home Depot, etc., for about $15.
Me personally, 11 - 12 wraps of 28 around a 5/64 drill bit gets me around 1.9 to 2.0 ohms for my VV Grand. I tend to go for higher resistance with the VV Grand than my other REOS Mods.

Unfortunately part of my head is skinhead whatever i do. It makes sense to me to avoid nastiness like comb-overs and so on and just take it all down to the bone!

T

I usually just have The Evil One run the clippers over me once every week or two without the guard. I've tried the razor route in the past but the itching drives me (more) nuts. I nearly always wear a hat due to what was once red(ish) hair. The weird thing is Annie is completely freaked out when I don't wear the hat for some reason, the reason most likely being she just pulled it off my head ;) I'll have to have The Evil One record it one of these days before she grows out of it :)


Master of Bassets...and not much else.
