UGH...saw a post on FB this AM of some guy at a gas station or something and his "ecig" blew up in his pants pocket. All on video. I didn't watch it bcuz I was running out the door. Of course it was probably a mech or the fire button was being pressed.
Why O why???

25 incidents since 2009....how many cellphones or laptops have had issues? And yeah, that explosion is bullshit.
You're right but we can't as a group shake our head and say that aloud, it would be take as childish. As per the general public and thanks to the media, we are the debil

I have surpassed any threat government can impose on vaping. I do feel for those who do not have the means to purchase all the vape gear. They will ever need. I have enough juice to last years. I continue to fight for those that don't. Fuck the FDA!

The last thing I want is to derail whiskeys house, but, I see this through e eyes of someone who has successfully left nicotine addiction completely behind, and when I do vape its 0 nic. If they took it away today, I would be fine. My concern and the reason I follow advocacy is for the smokers who may want to use it to get healthier, next month, year and so on. They need the same opportunities we had, only better. This kind of careless bullshit pisses me off,

"'Cross the stream" in this case don't think I would want to try swimming across the Ohio right now though

ROFL... My husband was born in Evansville, IN.. but he said it was a crapshoot whether he was born there or in Henderson, KY (where his mom's family is from), because they were flopping back and forth so much!

I too have lost any desire for nicotine. I vape cause it's fun. I can go days without nicotine and don't care at all. Like f1r3b1rd I hope smokers will find the way to quit. I openly oppose any SOB that tells me what to do for My own good.
I'm still in charge of that. :cool:

I'll probably never go to 0mg, because of nic's health benefits for the brain, but I found it ridiculously easy to drop to 5mg; if things do end up badly for purchasing nicotine, I'll drop again, to 3mg, which would mean the 2L of nic in my freezer will last not 22 yrs, but 35 yrs -- till I'm 90... which is older than I ever want to get to, anyway. :D

Just past noon now... but hey, I actually managed to drag my carcass out of bed before noon today. Amazing. :D

I learned last night that my stepfather has now been moved to rehab; he'll need about 3 wks of speech therapy and relearning basic stuff -- how to feed, dress, etc. He went thru something similar about 27 yrs ago with his first stroke, which was a blood clot rather than a bleeding event. My mom says he has good days and bad days, but he does seem to be on very slowly on the mend. Considering he's 76, we're all just very thankful that he's still with us.

My mother calls me last night, she's 89, she is in her bathroom sitting on the toilet seat because it is the safest place in the house. I went and picked her up, she is in my extra bedroom, not up yet. She will vape occasionally, I have a ego and Subtank Nano 1.2 with some Pale Whale Last Light 1.5mg waiting for her.

I have to go to new job today. I'm suppose to get company issued scrubs. I also have to get HR to get my hand print in the computer to scan. They use the whole hand to use to swipe in the system. A little too advanced for me. I'm so use to using a krono's card to swipe and be done with it.

I dont like any place that does hand/finger printing for ANY reson. Noone needs my fingerprints on record. My opinion though

Name tags work. This is for punching in/out. The name tags do not have photos on them. Supposedly, the name tags cannot have a last name on them as well due to security. (Patients stalking the lives of the workers).

I don't either. One never knows what someone can do with the prints. I'm thinking cyber crimes (yes I do watch CSI cyber crimes). :rolleyes:
I'm just thinking that I already have fingerprints on file with the Indiana state police and the ncics system. No-one else needs to have access to my "personal information" same as no-one else needs my social number AKA my serial number for our goverment.
*takes off tinfoil hat*
carry on everyone

I don't like hospitals or clinics, always around sick people...too many nasty germs when people touch stuff, and I especially dislike sick people coughing and not at least covering their mouth in the waiting room...but that's just me not wanting to get sick, lol

I'm thinking about volunteering a few hours at a no kill facility. I just have to get into a new work schedule. I can only give them a few hours but its better than nothing.
My gf and I used to volunteer at the the local shelter. Until they got to where they would send pitbulls to a "different" shelter because "their all mean and aggresive." I took my mixed mutt (golden retriver/rednose pit) in there and she walked right over to the manager and Sat down on her feet to get her lovings
