It came with 3 coils that look suprisingly like aspire coils, so I took one out and guess what?? THEY FIT:):)

Fortunately I had very good disability insurance so we are not nearly as bad off as we could have been, we only took a 33% cut but that was on salarly before bonuses, so in the end it is more like a 40% cut.

Had some money left in my 401k after the stock market crash wiped out most of it, so were able to pay off a enough debt and med bills to scrape by, but with the med bills we have racked up in the last 18 months I think it is pretty clear we are going to have to file BK to truly get to an ok state.

Once SSDI kicks in, will still get a supplement from the insurance so the big benefit of SSDI will be the tax advantages, cost of living increases and higher earnings post 65 when my insurance stops paying out.
You're in Indiana, correct? In Indiana only the person whose name is on the debt needs to file, not both in the marriage as in other States.

coffee and chocolate are two of the most difficult flavors to get right. the coffees mostly taste like 6 hour old gas station stuff to me. some of the chocolates i have tried are ok at first, but seem to get burnt tasting after awhile. i have pretty much given up on finding a good one of either.
In my sig... Naturally Extracted Coffee.

*kind of an inside joke


He was one of the stars who lost his entire fortune in the Madoff scandal, so he has a lot of ground to make up in order to get solvent again. He may be there by now, but was seriouly screwed in that mess because he apparently had given Madoff ALL of his money to manage.

Yeah, our stuff is split pretty much 60/40 or possibly 70/30 counting all the medical debt. Needless to say, disability has been very stressful in a lot of different ways. ;(

Do you know if it tastes like Kona coffee? It seems every single coffee flavor I have tried is made with a Kona blend and I loathe it. I recently got Espresso from TFA but it's too soon to tell if it's anything good. I love coffee and would love to vape it but so far I've been disappointed in every coffee vape I've tried. (I do like the SC line for tobaccos tho)

It is more like a rich caramel with sweet chocolate and coffee, and with a light tobacco. As it steeps, the lesser notes come out and it's great after a week or so. :)

I mix it around 5%, but I use a lot of VG, so if you use more PG you may need less. It's a strong flavor and doesn't get weaker. These are alcohol-based flavorings, so to let the alcohol evaporate off, let it steep for a day uncapped with occasional shaking...or whatever you do for steeping. ;)

There is a VZ flavor topic here: http://vapingunderground.com/threads/vaping-zone.5401/

Ahhhh Man Caff, Ours is all but melted away after all that rain we got.
Hey there LD

Yeah, we had rain mixed with sleet for a day or two...nasty cold rain. I love walking in the snow actually, but not as much when it is snowing.


Ha, I found this pic I'd taken during the last Seahawks game...
Tiki helping me watch and being very shiny. :D

I'd made "Nacho Chips" with homemade cheezy jalapeno bean dip. :D

(Soft flour torts cut into quarters, spread with hab sauce, colby-jack cheese, and baked until just slightly crisp and the cheese was bubbly.)

Tomorrow is my Christmas family reunion. My sister is even flying in from St. Thomas with my seven year old niece that I haven't seen since her baptism. Christmas comes a little late in my family since we are all spread out all over the place.

ok thanks. one weird thing tho. no matter if i choose the 10 ml or 32 ml size, it comes up $7.50 in my cart. that can't be right?

I also don't see it updating the price as you select options, but when I changed the size and then added it to the cart it was $14

Hmmm...odd, i got that too..A STEAL! ;-)

FWIW, did ya see this for the desserts?

These desserts DO contain the following: DIACETYL,ACETOIN,ACETYL PROPIONYL

For those concerned with vaping these chemicals please see our Diacetyl Free dessert category.

No clue, I've never tried them.

Yep.. The Sunrise is REALLY good.. Not that BS 6 day old Truck Stop coffee..

And yes, he took the possible Diacetyl flavors out of the desserts, but ended up bringing some back and giving an option 'cause of the outcry of people who wanted the originals :)

@kelli .. If you msg him and tell him I recommended you, he just might send out a freebie sample ;) He is on here as @Vash

Weird, FC's Xmas sale is supposed to go through today, but some of the items are coming up with bigazz prices now.

Still have the $9 Nemmy listed, but my Slug clone is back to $40. Oh well...always another sale. ;)

Yes and no.. It depends on what you like. The major diacetyl flavoring is caramel and I believe his butterscotch. I happen to like the caramel :)
