Well it appears that my company wants me to go to Singapore for month in the middle of February. :?::facepalm:

Am I going to get hassled there? What about bringing my juice and equipment with me through customs? Any advise?

I'd break it into parts and stuff it in your check-in luggage.

Funny it has the opposite effect on me, I stay up later than I should. What juice flavors do you like?

Yes and that too. Pretty hard to sleep with the 18mg nic probably. My current favourite juice is the mix of kringle curse and midnight apple. What about yourself?

Reverend has it started down there yet? What are y'all expecting?

Not really yet. Bitter cold winds, a little precipitation but not much winter mix yet. The kids did get some iciness and a teensy bit of snow early this afternoon, but nothing like what we've expected.

My forecast still says to expect it overnight, though.

I love Kringle's Curse. Midnight Apple for me was too strong. I don't really like tobacco flavors and I was a menthol smokers. I like Malibu and sub-zero sometimes but I love Kringle's Curse.

Probably because it went ALOT further north than it was suppose too. Our news people are saying "How did we get it so wrong?" they say "We failed to take into account the ground temperatures were already below freezing so everything that fell would stick." LOL -- Ya think?

It looks like you'll get it in about 2 hours. Funniest thing I saw on tv was a woman from NewYork being interviewed, she was stranded and staying in the lobby of a hotel in birmingham. She said all superior "When it first started I was worried about other people because I know they don't know how to drive in this kind of weather but this is un-treated ice, you can't drive on un-treated ice." LMBO she was shocked wondering when the city was going to get it treated. My question is what is treated ice?

Treated ice...

Like a sno cone?

Midnight apple was strong when I first open the bottle but it really mellowed down and giving a smooth tobacco with a kiss of apple.. do you usually steep the juices when you first got them?

Yes I let them air out for 24 hours and shake really well. If it doesn't have a chemical smell, I'll try it then, if it still smells like some chemicals I'll air them out more. Some can vape then fresh from delivery but I have to let them air out some. If it still doesn't smell yummy I'll steep it longer.

... My question is what is treated ice?

Here they spray the road with a brine solution before it snows. Then after, the plows lay down a mix of sand and/or salt, or maybe more brine. It absolutely will eat a car. When driving with that on the road, the spray from cars ahead will coat your cr in whitish/grey powdery dirt. If your coat touches the car, it'll have white on it.

But a freezing rain is paralyzing. I once had to drive home on the ice. It took an hour and a half to go 2.5 miles. I should have stayed where I was and just waited.

The New York 11 o'clock news started with the weather in, of all places, Alabama. It's like the first time in a while Alabama was mentioned outside of college football...

I feel sorry for y'all. :(

I think a sno cone sounds tastier

Forecast is low 9/high 23 then by saturday 61 and rain. Probably have tornados since it is going to get warm fast. Jeez Alabama weather is crazy!!

Well, I certainly hope there's no tornadoes (or Sharknado especially, for that matter)... Our weather here in Lubbock I swear is just based off a random number generator....

"Well, seems that today is going to be 84f, sunny and pleasant... Tomorrow's forecast is a -4 degree windchill and a blizzard. "

I'm still waiting for us to have a tsunami...

Tapped out on a phone... I think

Just watching the weather channel LOL I guess we name our weather events down here. Winter Storm Leon is a mess. Just to clarify for the Northeners. This is not snow, this is little pellets of ice. Has anyone heard from Diva today? Her area got it worse than I did.

Little pellets of ice!?!?! Big deal! We get hit with golf ball sized hail once or twice a year, and on one occasion in my short life I have seen baseball sized hail come down.... Oh so many windshields were smashed

You southerners :facepalm:, well I guess I shouldn't complain, we get like 50 tornado warnings a year that send people running to their basements, but we never actually get hit with any tornadoes... I swear the weather forecasters just like watching people panic and scramble.

Also, I lost a coil "condom" down the drain today:(. Only used that coil for maybe 4-5 tanks, oh well it is with the mutant sewer people now, I'm sure they will find some use for it. Good thing I bought a coil pack last order, and good thing I can just transfer them. I think I will retire that coil though, just because I can have a fresh one. :p

It's all relative, though. Some places are better prepared for this kind of weather, so it's not a big deal. Down south, we don't see this very often, so it's really more of a major issue. People aren't used to driving in these conditions or their vehicles aren't suited for it, so it becomes exponentially more dangerous then it would be in areas where people are more accustomed to it

Weather is no joke. Believe me, here during hurricane season, we get a number of close calls that leave some people ignoring warnings. And when you're not prepared for an event, the worst can happen.
