If you are someone that hates long rambling, blog like posts, exit now!
Lord knows with being on medical leave, I am bored out of my mind, and looking for something to get my mind off the pain I am in. So recently, after a news station in Columbus, Ohio ran a preview of a story they were doing about the cloud nine drug they showed a picture of an ego with a simple clearo. My phone rings, it's my mother.."Sis I want you to watch the news at 6 tonight.." I know mom I just saw the preview. "Well that looks like the first thing you were using before you bought the crack pipe".
Now let me just say that while my mother graduated in 69, and and grew up in the time of Woodstock and drugs being cool, she is completely drug illiterate, and the crack pipe comment is a joke between us regarding my MVP 2 and I clear 30s. This woman is extremely grateful that vaping helped me quit smoking, and will tell any smoker that will listen about how wonderful this stuff is. She has never smoked, always hated smoking and lost her parents both to smoking related cancer. Now back to the conversation...
After the news story appeared, she was fired up, you should email that station and tell them it's not right how they are portraying vaping, yes they should warn parents about dangers, but don't make all vaping look bad.
Fast forward to I have her listen to Russ on Click Bang. You know the episode the one when he calls the Michigan TV station and gives them hell about using Alpine Vapers eliquid in there story. He then goes on to discuss the situation with the 20 year old young man that owns the company.
Of course she thinks the story is crap and they shouldn't have shown the name of the eliquid but they should have pointed out that eliquid was one way in which this drug could be used. She then commented, that kid isn't helping himself, when I hear the word Alpine, I think of something high, and it gives me the first impression of a way of implying you can get high... I never thought of it this way.
But I guess after talking to a non vaper, yet someone that is grateful to it and does what she can to promote it, that people can take away the wrong idea about something from something so minor as a name. So no matter what we do we are always going to have those that don't understand that we are going to have to vapucate!
Again, this is someone that supports us, I have received several calls from people that I didn't know, but would start off the conversation with hello, I'm. Xxx and you don't know me, but I know your mom.
