1. Well, the Grand hit the OKC sorting facility this morning, which means they'll have it first thing in the morning. Again, my local post office can hold it for me there. I think the wife's more disappointed about the delay than I am, which is saying a lot.

2. As for people ordering more than one mod, they could be greedy bastids, or they may be ordering for their friends. I've got three who are clamoring for a mini.

3. Got my uber strength VG Virginia Gold venom juice from eliquid8 in yesterday. Tastes different from Scott's, who had a blend. Whew, this stuff is potent! I can see why Sterno says it keeps him from chain vaping. Secondly, the mini LOVES vg juice. No issues at all, but simply hit the button-get a vape bliss. I'm contemplating going straight VG after this. I also think that the mini or the grand can be used by a brand new vaper with ease with VG juice.

4. Which brings me to what to do with my existing juice. I've got a cough syrup bottle of venom, so I'm good for a bit. I could buy some straight unflavored VG and blend it (and start tinkering with blending my own-great, like I need another hobby) or donate it. I've got a few review mods that I've offered to local smokers with health problems that I know....but many balk about having to buy chargers and batteries off of ebay! I get aggravated about their crybaby, entitlement mentaility...you can give some people a car and they'll complain about having to buy gas. At the very least, it lets me know that they're not really serious about trying vaping.

5. Wife had a good question. How easy or difficult is to fly commercial with a mod and juice? If anyone has any input, I'd appreciate it, thanks.

Yeah, that's what happens when I go to bed too early. Was off the 'puter for a bit to take the dorky yorkie and the porky yorkie outside. Both ran out the back door and wanted to stop and run back when they discovered its raining.

Hiya Clyde...Nice to see you :) I'm at work, fixing to go home and get a good long nap.

I'm wondering about flying as well. I havent flown since I started vaping, and im planning a trip to London this summer, wondering how much of a hassle it's going to be. I'm also wondering about customs with my juice...

So..i am extremely interested in this information if anyone knows.

Hope everyone is doing well and your grande's are enroute to you really really soon !

Hiya Sterno...hope you're feeling better ! Chicken Noodle Soup, 7 up and rest ! Hugs

Eh, no court this morning, may have to take Sterno some soup IF he's not contagious. He's close to his local grocery store, but it's raining like the dickens this morning in OKC.

The grand would be delivered today if it wasn't a holiday. Friday will be a certainty.

And nothing beats gargling hot salt water for a sore throat. Funny how I HATED that as a kid, but insist upon it now.

Also think eating hot stuff helps with congestion.

Crap, gotta tend to the dogs again. Later.

Can't comment on flying, but I had to go to the courthouse in Tampa. Even though I put my mod in the basket prior to going through the scanning machine, I had three BIG cops pull me out of line and question me on just what I that thing was. I explained it to them. They got to laughing and suggested that I get one of "Them new ones that look like a cigarette"

I've gone to Puerto Vallarta and Manila without a problem - you'll want to check the Travel section to see if there are any changes. You need to bring your batteries in your carry-on, as you can't pack them in checked luggage. Juice is treated as any other carry-on liquid. When I went to Manila, I had tons of batteries, cartos, etc. in my carry-on. When they scanned my bag, they stopped for a bit to look at it, then the guy says to me, "Sir, are you trying to quit smoking?" I said, "YES I AM!", and he smiled and waved me through.

I started man many years ago getting on my watchables through ftp but theses days torrents are the way to go.

Haha, I'm with ya Rob... I did the FTP thing way back, then the newsgroups, now its all torrents. I have to back it down during the day because I'm doing so many it jams up our network. The wife goes crazy if things slow down. But at bed time its full throttle ahead.

EDIT: you weren't DL'ing 15 shows when you were trying to open up the Grands for sale were you? :)

Good morning ya'll!!! Missed you all alot!!! Lorda mercy, the yucks have been going round here and had all of us down. I could have thumped the son in law, he bought the epizooties home to the baby, then my daughter fell ill followed soon by me.

They don't live with me either, but I keep the baby everyday so we share pretty much everything. Spent the first half of the week caring for them, and yesterday was my turn to have a turn with this mess!!! I'm now sipping tea, tastes like heaven and I don't do hot tea, but it's nice to have something in my stomach again and there is no way I can do coffee yet. UGH!!!

But being back here, enjoying ya'll and this tea, my Grande at the PO, things are looking sunny again........I think I'm going to make now. :)
Got alot to catch up on, and bitey, I haven't forgotten to reply to you, just haven't had a chance but big hugs to you and I'll get back to ya today!!!

Missed ya'll!!!

Thanks Piano...i was getting a little worried about it. I'll check with the airlines and see what they say. Thanks for the info on the batteries too.


Oh, and what did I miss while I was out? Somebody care to give me the readers digest version? LOL

Thanks Clumsy, and have a great day yourself!!!!

Yeah, it was and still is a little, awful!!! Stomach doesn't hurt as badly as it did, but every now and then.......hurts very much bad!!!

Word of advice to all, now that we're coming up on flu season and other nasties, have something you can vape without making you feel worse! I normally vape sweet flavors like something butterscotchy, but that was a NO go for sure! When I was finally able to vape, I loaded up my mini with some Hypnotic Mist, it and the mini saved my life!!!

The Hypnotic tastes like you're vaping a Sprite, and it actually helped settle my stomach at times. And GOD BLESS Robert and my mini!!! If I would have had to focus and fill cartos during the bleek part of this, I wouldn't have made it! I was so weak and shaking like a wet dog most of the time, filling those little carto or cartridges would have been impossible!

Instead, I was able to put the end of the HM bottle directly into my mini's bottle and fill 'er up, and crawl back to the couch. My mini and the Hypnotic mist was the only good thing for days!!!!

Guys I just got caught up on this monster of a thread and for those of you inundating Rob with a bunch of emails asking if your mod shipped, Please give the man a break. Its a one man operation and he has stated over and over that even though the site malfunctioned and allowed more orders than he expected, everyone will be getting their mod. The more time he is answering emails asking where your mod is, is really less time he has to be assembling mods and shucking em out. I am sure that Rob started this endeavor as a labor of love and I want to keep it that way. I really don't want it to come to the point where it feels like work to him.

So there I said it, I am the bad guy. I only said it cause Robert would probably never do it. After reading this thread and in my contacts with him I don't really think I have ever seen him be short or curt with anyone but lets not test my theory.

Everyone who ordered, rejoice!! You are the soon to be proud owner of somthing special. It will get there of this I'm sure. But please be patient and when it ships.....you will get a shipping notice. I am not saying don't contact him for clarification on orders or address confirmations , god knows I have but as long as he is answering when my mod is shippin questions he aint building your mod. Or mine for that matter....lol

I ordered the Hypnotic mist flavoring (from ecigexpress) and made my own, but FSUSA has it already made.

Thanks! Maybe I'll give the flavoring a whirl. I haven't tried any DIY yet, but have enough unflavored juice to make about 3 liters, so I should get busy.
