The temps have risen...Cloudy but warm....I'll take it!!!

Zen had a video on air flow...I wasn't loving the Aspire and it had been highly recommended...Looking at my new box mod the air holes were quite small...Still there was a slight gap between the box and Aspire's base...Something had to change....My small drill bits are all at the beach...Everything here though some are less than 1/8 would be way too big...I pull out the tip cleaner for my torch set...They have files on them and I find one that fits...Sure enough the beauty ring is chromed brass and I enlarge the holes several sizes..I also chunk the 1.8 and add a 2.1 too the Aspire...Lo and behold the dang thing is now billowing the vapor and flavor is up there as well....That's great because I somehow have three Aspires....Airflow is key too their operation...I know air controls are available...I classify them as I would an adapter...Another connection in the voltage circuit is a no go for me....That complicates matters and 99% of the time vape issues are due too a wonky voltage connection...I'll not multiply my chances of a bad connection....The Aspire is great now....

The Innokin I 30s has performed flawlessly right outta the box....It's little brother the I 16 is also great.....No mods were needed with either for great performance....All my tips work great on the 30s....

It's off too the junkyard once again.....This time a Mustang GT is giving up it's 5-speed transmission....It's an aftermarket Tremec TKO that some GI installed....The TKO is almost 3 grand and my way for a couple hundred and a little sweat and cussing....It's going in a collection of parts for a 70~72 Plymouth Duster....Hey the house payments are in the short rows....I'll be building the Duster when they run out...In the meantime we got wrenched and they ain't ahhh gonna turn themselves....You can find me under the vapor cloud....Evel out!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful day here as well, 60* and sunny. Got out and enjoyed the yard work at my own pace, just soaking up what will be one of the last days before old man winter settles in :)

Dee, glad you got the airflow issue solved. On my native 801 cap the Fusions are just a tad tight on the draw, so I use a little awl and enlarge the air holes on the Fusions. Works like a dream. The i30 I bought was the one with the non changeable swivel tip...I just popped it in the mail to Moon yesterday. He has a ton of replacement heads, but sat on his i30 and broke it <giggle> PIF...it's one of the joys of life!

Who is familiar with MP3 players? I need some jams for working around outside, but have no idea what to look for, and even less cashola to fork out for something that will suck if I don't get some input from those in the know :) I don't need to pay the iPod price, I just want something that will sound decent...earbuds I got.

Suggestions welcome!

Darnit Bov, I missed your post before leaving and didn't get to find out about the PG. Next time!!!
I did get 3 doggie shots, 1 for each of the dogs to get tomorrow, then the 16 weeks shot the puppy will need again in 8 weeks. No doubt I will be going back again before that though.

I had an associate there talking to me about dog foods, and this is what we decided on. Dozer is being fed BLUE Buffalo puppy food and that stuff is expen$ive!!! They had me compare their brand called 4health. Almost identical, and both made at the same place. I bought a 6 lb bag of Blue Buffalo for $18.99 and a 5 lb bag of 4health for $7.99. I will begin the weaning process and if all goes well, he will be a 4health puppy! I may even try to wean Bella over from Royal Canin. Can't have dogs eating better than you!!! hahaha

That sansa mp3 player looks great for the price!

Bov,
Joc is looking right now for her mp3 player. Not sure what brand it is, but will let you know and if you want it, it's yours and I can get it in the mail to ya this week. :) (If it's a crappy brand and you don't want it, that's ok too, no harm done)

**hahaha she just said, "she'll have to get my rap music off of it though bc I don't remember how!"**

Haha Tracy! Tell Joc thank you very much for looking! I bet we could find a doc online to figure out how it works ;) Oooo NYC...Lauren is a brave young lady! Hope she and BF have a great time!

Chase is an Iams boy, and yep premium dog (and cat) food is expensive. He eats a mix of wet and dry, it's a good thing he's a small dog lol

Lauren's bf asked my permission to take her there for their 11 month anniversary (which isn't until the 24th). I am not absolutely comfortable with it, and cannot wait until she's back home, but I couldn't say no.

I hear ya on the "good thing he's a small dog" bc even though the Royal Canin is on the costly side, it takes her almost 2 months to go through a 40 lb bag! hahaha That's how I justified it. ;) I will not be nearly as lucky with Dozer!

I can't imagine how I would be as a mommy watching my girls grow into young women...I'd probably lock them in the basement until they were 30 :shock: I remember my former step daughter's first heart break, I wanted to strangle that boy!

Chase gets Iams Senior Plus dry food with half a can of Iams wet food mixed with it each day. At least the wet food is 2 meals per can. Fortunately I know that Gramma Katie won't let her buddy go hungry, and she's been sticking to the "no people food" rule pretty well lately.

Evening everyone!

JD is a cute name for a pooch 5c!

Bov, the heartaches are gut wrenching for sure, and I've been guilty of wanting to bust some heads myself in the past. lol Can't help it. If either of my girls were on the opposite end of that scenario, I"m the first one to point out how wrong they are too.

I'm off to check out some TV....see you all tomorrow!

(((huggerzzz)))

Night Tracy! You're not fooling us, you won't get a wink of sleep until Miss L gets home :)

Jerry, get back in here lol...Fran it was gorgeous here.

5, Chase used to only eat the dry food and was happy with that for years. It wasn't until my little Abby girl got sick (and the only way to get her to eat was wet food) that Chase decided he had to have it too. I still miss my sweet, quirky, curious shi 'tzu, Abby.
