Tootle Puffers, Redux (The Sequel)

[AndriaD]

Apparently the brain associates even the slightest amount of cola flavoring with the bubbles.

That's good to know, because I worried that a cola flavor would taste "flat" -- I hate flat soda!

This is quite cool. One of my biggest problems adjusting to diabetes was having to give up soda pop. I hate diet soda of any sort. But this gives me not only the flavor, but some of the sensation as well.

Totally with ya there. Are they still not making any soda with sucralose instead of all that other nasty crap? I've tried sucralose in my tea, and it's not bad; not *quite* as good as sugar, but VERY close. I've pretty much given up soda just because it's so sugar-laden; I put sugar in my tea, but not nearly the amount used in soda.

Sodas use corn sweetners. Does not taste quite like real sugar.

Me too. Not as bad as flat beer, though.

I hate sucralose, too. The only non-sucrose sweeteners I can stand are other sugar alcohols like glycerin and sorbitol. Those aren't non-caloric, but they do metabolize differently than sucrose, and they don't rot your teeth, either (assuming you still have some--I don't).

Around here (Colorado), soda imported from Mexico is getting more popular. In Mexico, almost all sodas are made with cane sugar.

I expected nothing less. You give us science, not amusement.
For a smooth vape, try some Smooth Jazz.

Crank it up!

Question for the collective knowledge bank we have here. I was asked this question and have a few but there is probably a lot more.

What tanks (other than the specific aspire gear) can you use with the aspire non nautilus BVC coils

All the aspire clearomizers

Billet box with bridge
Anyvape Davide tanks with aspire collar
Some of the pro tanks with the davide tank collar
Beyond Vape silo light tanks
Egrip with modification of the coil pin

VapeProd Atomizer for carto tanks.

Are there any more.

 

[Electrodave]

Crank it up!

Nice.



Plas Johnson improvised the second sax solo (somewhat different on this video than the original recording) in the studio at Henry Mancini's request. I can't imagine being in the studio with a famous producer and composer like Mancini and being told to improvise the sax solo on the bridge.

Then again, Johnny Smith wrote "Walk, Don't Run" in the studio because he didn't want to waste studio time that he had already paid for.



I'm pretty sure that none of these guys ever vaped.

Has anyone else had problems with Boge cartotanks leaking?

 

[Belhade]

It would depend on the music being played. Rap would be different from classical.

Smooth jazz for the tootle puffing crowd, I'd imagine. My Roland Microcube would power it nicely.

I think that must be true. A while back, Pepsi ran a campaign using only sugar, no corn syrup, and I thought that pepsi tasted pretty good. Then again, I like pepsi anyway, but yeah, the sugar-sweetened variety did taste better.

Some local delis have Mexican sodas, with cane sugar instead of corn syrup, in glass bottles. That's pretty much the only soda I drink anymore, and even that is only once or twice a month.

I'm sitting here looking at a 2ohm stable 2000W amp thinking "Will it Vape". Yes it will

Yes but, tubes will bring out the warmth in the Vape.

Hmm.. as for teeth... "No comment."

But I cannot STAND any of those -ol sugar-substitutes, they all taste just nasty to me, so artificial. At the dentist, if I have to get a shot of novocaine, I DEMAND that they not use the topical anesthetic first -- pain fades in seconds, but the taste of that crap lasts ALL DAY LONG, I can't get rid of it no matter what else I eat or drink. In fact, as a child, I would BEG the doc to give me a shot rather than condemn me to some nasty liquid medicine, and I taught myself to swallow pills at the age of 7 for the same reason -- just cannot deal with bad tastes.

I'm not in the same league of "super-taster" as @Robert Cromwell, but definitely along those lines -- more of a "super smeller" -- and bad tastes, to me, are a fate worse than death. I suppose that as my tastebuds heal from nearly 4 decades of smoking, I may approach Lord Cromwell's tasting ability, but I kinda hope not. I've already discovered that I no longer enjoy italian sausage, and given my extreme dietary challenges with all my digestive issues, I can't afford to lose many more foods from my diet.

My 200W Lunchbox Amp would be a more portable vaping solution.

For those of you non-denture wearers--the glycerin in your vape builds up on your upper denture. Lick it off once in a while--yum!

!

That's 200W? The Micro Cube is 2!

 

[Electrodave]

Yes. The ZT Lunchbox is 10"x8"x5", has a 6.5" speaker and can completely drown out my 50W 12" Marshall ValveState. $300, and worth it. They also make a 200W PA which is nearly identical, it just has an extra input for a mic. You could work a small club with it.

The first time I brought it to band practice I put it in my bag with my effects unit. Everybody asked me "Where's your amp, Dave". I had been taking my 35W Orange for quite a while. When I took the Lunchbox out of my bag they thought it was a joke. Until I drowned out the entire band with it.

ZT also makes a 12V 100W amp with a 5.5" speaker that can run on batteries, and has a 9V output to run pedals. $149 for the ultimate busker amp.

I have a Lepai 20W AMP! lol

@Belhade You used to play HL-DM Online?

Within the last month, Pepsi took all the aspartame out of Diet Pepsi and replaced it with sucralose. I was a bit afraid, being a life-long Diet Pepsi drinker, and remembering the fiasco of New Coke. I was pleasantly surprised. I really like it. In fact, I like it better.

Excellent thanks Dave.

LMAO there is a snob group for everything!
