I did use amber in version 1, brandy in version 2. Hmm. I'll look at my stuff and think about that. The peach is just....... odd in this. I used lemon sicily in one of them, also. Considered a teeny touch of raspberry, too. I'll play again. For now, it's this -

I've been MIA because work's been a zoo and I went from like 8hrs a week to around 35 this week alone. The part time employee they had got fired and I've been working and helping the boss. We're now the first B&M listed for Indiana on here.

There was a lawsuit at 1 point. It became a law that all phones must contact 911 even if disconnected. Both land and cell.
Don't dial 911 in Indiana, you'll get a dispatcher in another state. I know this because I have to call local dispatch #s for fire, police or emts.

Hope everyone is enjoying holiday weekend. Not much of a holiday for me. . I'm playing nurse with a person who complains about everything.

I do know that even in vacant rental property you can still get a dial tone...

I have never dared to call 911 to test this... I would not take the word of a phone service salesman on this.
Here is a link http://www.nytimes.com/2000/03/16/technology/old-cell-phones-can-still-call-911.html
I cannot quickly find a reference about the home phone. I'll track this down tomorrow.


I do not know about nationwide, but I do know, for certain, that in the Tampa Bay area of Florida, an out of service cell CAN dial 911. Here the 911 operators get an address and/or the Lat-Lon of the calling cell. I DO NOT advise calling 911 emergency as a test. Instead, call the non-emergency number. They would be more than happy to answer your question. If you do not know the non-E number, try 411 or just ask the first police officer you come in contact with.

Oh a diy note. Yesterday I decided to use the online recipe site eliquid recipes or whatever it's called. I been using ejuicemeup but it only allows 7 flavors in a recipe. I was going something with 8

My only fear is if the site goes belly up any data I entered disappears. Would be nice to export a text file or xl. Etc..

Otherwise I like the site how it functions and the features

Why do mosquitos like some people and not bite others? They love me. Has taken away me wanting to go camping any more.

Saw something recently that they are more attracted to people who are drinking. Guess they like a little buzz. Try standing next to someone pounding beer.

Body chemistry. People who eat a lot of sweets are more prone to being eaten by mosquitoes. People whose body ph is lower are also more susceptible. *raises hand* Hi, I'm food for the local mosquito, spider, and fly populations respectively. I take B100 from gnc daily, for me it has 3 purposes. It fills in where I don't eat enough green leafy stuff, it supplements me in B2 (Riboflavin) which is the poor-man's OTC migraine prevention, and B1 has an odor that is transmitted by the body, through pores (not in sweat), but it makes you smell less appetizing to bugs. It can take 30 days of taking the pills before the B1 has a chance to build up in your body and actually make you smell less like food to the bugs. If you do take a B100 or even a B50 - which is 100 or 50mg of all the B-complex vitamins know in advance that if you do not tell your doctor you're taking it and they give you a urine test they'll rush you to the ER thinking you're going into Diabetic shock, when in reality its just "food dye" of sorts. B2 - riboflavin is naturally the color of neon yellow egg dye, its excreted in the urine, not all doctors (and most nurses) aren't aware of this until you show them the facts and prove you're not dying, that no you've been taking Bcomplex supplements with high doses of B2 - and they'll freak out less. But its shocking the first few times when you realize you could dye eggs yellow with your urine. Riboflavin is the most common NATURAL yellow dye - the color is concentrated and its not problematic if ingested like some artificial colors are.

You can have my backyard! I liked it when we first bought the house. Now its just work, $$, mosquitoes, $$, work.

whatever is in dryer sheets is a funky chemical.
I left a dryer sheet on a table on my back deck. It rained & the sheet glued itself to the glass table. When I peeled it up a nasty white fillm was stuck to the table. took a lot of windex to remove the dryer sheet goo from table

I'm not a very good DIYer.

I have my ADV. I try out a couple more recipes every once in a while. I don't go crazy buying flavors or mixing all sorts of recipes.

I'm sorry.

I've failed you all. ;)

Lol. I'vegot all the fixins and a few flavors. Some brand new empty bottles. TThey've been sitting for a month. Eventually I hope to accomplish something. I just like the people here.=) don't sweat the small stuff.

Buy simpler flavours and make it easy on yourself to begin with. And it's easier to redeem some badly made juice if the ingredients aren't complex

That's why I hang out here, too. :)

The people in the DIY section (and most sections here) are awesome! :)

Don't worry, my mixing skills are fine. I just don't mix often, other than my ADV. ;)

Window stickers/etching stickers..
Seems I have a generic car, hard to pick out from the others in a parking lot..
or at least in a batch of white cars *giggles..

Thinking on putting a blue dot on my sunroof and see if that won't help! *shakes my head and laughs.. :D

It is a huge step up from my van.. but I feel so! low to the ground..
but it runs decent.. YAY!! :)

thanks GG :p

I used to have ones for etching. Probably wouldn't be good anymore, plus they're small. I think this would be the perfect thing for that car to help it stand out.

Can just see my car now :p

Not sure, Emilie.. thing is, I have no!! external antenna.. so can't attach anything like that..
I thought on a blue dot on my sunroof.. and I know I need to go to office depo, maybe take a psd with.. for my better half's juice company..
I can see that on the back windshield :D *giggles..

but I don't think he will let me attach those eye lashes to his suv.. *ducks!!

I like those box mods, Ace.. but I think I like my mech better, specially with my big budda.. omg.. I can drip in it.. and turn it into a tank! :p

All I'm saying is that I'd be happy to print on white or clear vinyl for you (clear can be reverse printed so it sticks to the INSIDE of the window). :)

My husband bought an electric blue Saturn this year (someone rear-ended him in our Scion), and he cut out (not printed) a silver Doctor Who TARDIS and stuck it to the back of his car so he always knows which car is his. :)

You can't miss my van, so I haven't done anything with it.

oh!! on the inside! :) lol I had a brain lapse! :eek:

thank you Emilie!! :) I was thinking outside the car window.. but that wouldn't be good.
I have a rather huge pecan tree and it loves to put tree yucks on my van and car..
(gota sell the van soon) and it would mess up anything on the outside..
so inside would be perfect! that would be too totally cool :)

not sure what I will do with the car yet.. you gave me a good idea on the Dr Who :)

My son is a Disney and Pixar fan.. so maybe it would be a good project for him :D

You're always cutting grass lol!

Not one of my fav past times. Luckily we have a ride on tractor. We mow what we can with tractor. Then get the teen neighbor to come over and weed eat / blow or use his push mower where tractor can't go.
What was for lunch?

I'm hungry but too lazy to make something. Other half just went to dunkin donuts. A med latte will be my brunch.
