Whenever I take Henry, our 55 kg Yellow Lab, out for a walk it is definitely for both of us to get some exercise but most critically its so Henry can do his "business".
I guess you can call me a chain vaper or someone with emotional issues to the extent that I never ever go any where without a mod. Typically its one of my "reliables": Zen Standard SS or Ti or Mini SS or Ti. Don't have to worry I know it will fire on command and produce a satisfying vape.
Now I don't baby my mods and Mike's creations are built tough and rugged but there is one thing I've never stopped worrying about regardless of how tough and rugged my Zens~ are. No matter how much I remind myself of the possibility of a terrible event occurring I always forget about the danger at the most likely time of occurrence.
When Henry does his "business" he doesn't fool around, he lays out a log. If we're in the bush and he goes deep then its up to Mother Earth to deal with it. If however, he's found a choice piece of real estate * on one of my many neighbours perfect lawns * I have to pick it up. For those of you with dogs and "poop and scoop" regs in your community you'll no doubt agree with the sentiment "thank god for plastic bags." Typically the consistency of Henry's dumps are soft to mushy on the internationally recognized DSCS (Dog Sheet Consistency Scale); however, when SWMBO decides Henry needs a dietary change, oven roasted chicken "a la herbs" takes Henry's DSCS into the mushy to liquid range with invisible but deadly vapours.
Well, today was one of those days.
Both SWMBO and I were late getting home so no time to ease into the evening routine; just get out of the car and stuff the 3 mods I chose for the drive home into my shirt pocket with the other 4 I had selected for the work day safely in my computer bag. I had a meeting with the Ontario Minister of Infrastructure and Transportation and I like to show the Minister something different whenever we meet and that gives him a chance to ask his staffers who are still smoking why they aren't vaping. (We have friends in government). But I digress.
The danger I referred to above is when, with the plastic bag prepared for DSR (Dog Sheet Recovery) and in a state of "deep bend over" the chance of a mod slipping out of my pocket and landing in a heaping pile of steaming doggy do is high. Today is especially dangerous; too much chicken and not enough sawdust (binding agent) and I'm late so Henry's gotta really go so am I'm at DEVCON 1.
Well I'm sure you've all seen the "Captain Phillips" movie trailers with Tom Hanks where the orange life boat is launched and nose dives into the ocean and porpoises to the surface ................... well that is exactly what my SS Mini did with a beautiful grey and silver Bull Box drip tip on it into Henry's "business". It was covered *.
Usually I fondle and caress my mods; this time I didn't know how I was going to get it home......... plastic bag to the rescue. It took me an hour and 500 mls of Isopropanol to get it clean, I even trashed a perfectly good Nextel wick and coil and "O" rings - just in case. THe drip tip received extra attention and spent 20 minutes in boiling water.
The moral of the story - keep it in your pants.
Well I just thought I'd share that important vaping safety tip with you all.
Good night

I always enjoy hearing others doing diy, they gain a deeper appreciation and understanding just how much work and time goes into the creation of juices.
Vazilla definitely took the cake clocking in at 3 months.
This month is my one year anniversary for the juice making adventure and I have 9 juices to my name if that gives you any idea how much time is involved.

And I enjoyed that waaaay too much.
Trust me, it was your story telling style that made my enjoyment, as I was otherwise seriously grossed out.
If it had been me, the expensive drip tip would have hit the garbage can.

Hey folks,
Just a check in to say hi, and to ask for you guys to send some positive thoughts my way, please!
The past week I've been revamping my game from the ground up... Graphics, everything.. for a one minute trailer that's going to be shown to a VERY large game company tomorrow. If they approve it, it will be on one of the largest PC game distribution platforms, and the company I work for will help me fund it.
If you got an invite from me to like the game, feel free to ignore it.. I might have suggested some of you to like it on accident.
Anyway, if you can keep your fingers crossed for me, I would appreciate it. It's a large opportunity, and I'm under a lot of pressure.![]()
Good morning all
The truth be known I had come to the conclusion that had any contaminants survived after a through Iso scrubbing and a 20 minute boiling water bath it should be immediately determined. So in keeping with the purest principles of the scientific method I rebuilt the wick and coil, gussied up the mod with new rubbers (aka "O" rings) and loaded up the tank with some 18 mg lemon / lime 100% VG. The choice of juice was because it was the only clear juice I have and wanted to be able to check for floaters. Having throughly impressed myself with this simple yet intuitive approach to catching unwanted debris that I might have otherwise missed in the previously described cleansing process I set about to deal with the most complex part of the the operation........ the safety of others.
Deep in the bowels (working a theme here) of 499 Chillingham Cr is my vaping cave. I lock the door from the outside (its tricky), secure my mod in a "helping hands" with the switch activated by a re-purposed base drum pedal (Mike would be proud) with the airs of "Stairway to Heaven" in the background. The final step was to strap myself into to the vaping chair, itself a Mark 1 ejection seat from a F86 complete with a solid fuel rocket motor, parachute not required as the unique visual and sensory experience of traversing through 2 floors of my house and the roof would be overkill.
Well I vaped an entire tank of that lemon / lime stuff did not have to activate the vaping chair and I have not grown a 4th testicle so I guess I got all of it............ dam drooling MUHAHAHAHAH![]()
