  1. The ones Ive heard of are on the upper west side, around Times Square, and a couple in Brooklyn and Queens. I dont know the exact locations. There are also 1 or 2 Ive heard of out on the Island, the Indian Res. is picking up on them from what Ive heard. Good luck, hope this helps.
  2. Joe, PLEASE dont stop ranting, ranting is my FAVORITE part of this forum ! I am almost afraid to SAY the word anarchy, as the mere thought of it happening frightens me. Its what has seperated "us" from "them" for 200 plus years. But, and this is the FIRST time Im saying it out loud, I DO believe it MAY come to that, if this current trend continues. This country was founded as the result of a Revolution, by men who were tired of having thier "Liberties usurped". They then put thier pen to parchment, declared thier basic human rights, and took up arms to defend them. Yes, I believe we are close again. I am NOT an anarchist, or anti-government, or a right wing radical. I am an American who LOVES his country, has served and fought for it, and who is watching it slip away on a daily basis. Rant on Joe, Im right behind you !
  3. Travis, I ABSOLUTELY understand where youre coming from, having been a HEAVY smoker, and "jonesin" when I accidently bought 18mg once and had to wait for 24mg. And while, in theory, I totally agree with what you are saying, that its just another infringment on our rights in this "whats best for the masses" legal world, the only issue I have is the safety aspect. Yes, you are right, not EVERYONE should be held accountable for the actions of a few, but in some instances we MUST, and SHOULD, when children are concerned. Now, all of us here disagree on this on various levels, and thats great that we can voice our opinions here like adults. And like SO many issues, we can discuss it till we are blue in the face, and in the end it wont amount to a hill of beans, because some government agency is going to make a decision based on the absolute LEAST amount of logic available. What raised everyones hackles here, is NOT the issue you raised so much as the WAY you raised it. I am not the only one here who thought your first post aimed at Chris was a little harsh. Intententionally or not, ( and I'd like to think not), it came across as a personal nudge on someone who has devoted COUNTLESS hours, resources and energy to keep the world of vaping a respectable, and more importantly, responsible place. The fact that the word "cigarette" is associated with vaping, gives us 3 strikes walking up to the plate. If it wasnt for people like Chris, who PASSIONATLY believes in our right to vape and has done so much for that cause, I shudder to think how hard it might be to get 5mg of nic right now. NO ONE here , I think, disagrees with the general base argument you set down, and I would think EVERYONE here would agree you should have the RIGHT to get the level of nic you need or desire. However, this NOT being a perfect world, concessions must be made to appease the powers that be, to make EVERYONE a little happy. Again Travis,it just came off a little personal . The first line read "C'mon Chris I expect more than that". I had to re-read that several times before I realized you DIDNT mean you expected more from Chris. An honest and simple mis understanding. Like Mrs. O'learys cow, a huge fireball started from something small. And other than that, I personally WELCOME and relish the fact that we have a forum where we CAN voice our different opinions in a constructive way.
  4. THATS why Im so sedentary ! -------> Guiness
  5. LOL ! Im a New York street kid, but I now live in Floriduh, and let me tell ya, down here at 13 you can be a GRANPA !
  6. Ok, I just googled Woot, and, OH, NOW I get it. I am as computer illiterate as they come. I can actually B.S. my way thru a whole conversation with a geek, but I have NO friggin idea what we talked about when we're done. I thought "woot" was an affirmitave yelp, like "ooh rah, its payday !" or "Golly gee Lassie, did Timmy fall in the well again?". I didnt know I was signaling a stampede for a virtual sale ! So, from now on, I will "Hoot !" instead of "Woot !" My apologies
  7. LOL ! A Guiness, AYE ! The "Nuge" ! Wow, Gazzo, Im flattered, I LOVE Teds music AND politics. He tells it like it is. And, I hereby adopt you as my VT little girl ! P.S. - I'll bet I am old enought to be yer Da !
  8. Ok, I got that " deer in the headlights" look goin on. I dont know if I just got accused of something, or praised for it.
  9. I have to agree that there HAS to be a limit. I would not have any objections to 24mg being that limit, I think 48 is too high. Im probably not opposed to compromising and making it 36mg. But, I agree with Thesmokingman, we MUST police ourselves, lest Big Brother step in and do it for us. Travis, you may very well be able to tolerate 36 or 48mg, AND use it responsibly. BUT, I would MUCH rather see you make the attempt to lower your nic level, which will call for some willpower on your part, than to just let ANY bozo sell rocket fuel nic levels to any OTHER bozo that will buy them, and see someone lose thier life, or worse, a childs life. Now, dont get me wrong, Im all against preaching and regulating, but if its in the name of safety over self control, I have to lean on the side of safety. Especially when EVERYBODY still gets what they want in leaning that way. You STILL get your nic fix, although it may take, what, a week to get used to a lower level. And the rest of us STILL get to vape without worrying about Bozo, or Big bro. I was a HARDCORE chainsmoker, 3-4 packs a day of Camel for 30 plus years. I wouldve outsmoked John Wayne without batting an eye. I started on 36mg, went down to 24, barely, and I mean barely noticed it.
  10. Ive bought several batts from RMV, and have had no problems with any of them. Good customer service as well.
  11. Hmmm, nope Fatalis, never heard that one, and I SERIOUSLY doubt color has anything to do with performance, unless theyre not a genuine Joye 510. if the colored ones you mention are knock offs, then yes, that might be true. Good to have you back, havent seen you in a while !
  12. Hmmmm, never heard of that one, and Id be afraid to do it and burn out a good atty. Personally, I wouldnt. JMHO !
  13. That seems awful quick to be burning up attys like that, and it doesnt sound like your doin anything wrong. My guess is its a bad batch, that happens sometimes. I had that prob with batts before. Contact your supplier and let him know whats going oon, he should replace them, I would think.
  14. Me too, Brian, Ive heard that. Hmmmm, wonder if its true ? i wouldnt know, of course, just wonder @ flux - I keep alcohol wipes with me all the time, cleans up the oily crap off your skin, AND 510. Theyre cheap too, box of 100 at Dollar General is, you guessed it, a dollar.
  15. Hey JM, nice review ! Wordups Camel Wides juice is awesome !! I was a Wides smoker for years, and I love his Camel and 555 liquid. BTW, us yankees say paul maul !! LOL ! Let me know next time you guys are playing in Ybor, I'll come see you. I;ll leave my bass at home !
  16. LOL ! Good one Spine - ......With no fluid, in our holes And no filler, watch us glow You can say we're gonna fry Atty, a-a-atty You can vape us till we die .....
  17. B-dog , Ive been a little busy and i think I missed this when it first posted. Im sorry about your mishap, and am thankful nothing happened to you. That is the most important thing. Whether or not your car or possesions can be replaced is not important. That you are safe and unhurt and still with us is. Good luck girl.
  18. LOL! No Nana, that was as good a reply as Yogi Berra ever could have done ! (jk )
  19. VaporTalk has a great Menthol. Im not trying to Hawk Vapor Talk , but thier juice is awesome !
  20. Hey Al, ( can I call you Al? ) Welcome to Vaportalk. I was just like you, and NEEDED to have a juice that tasted like my analogs ! Sorry Al, it doesnt exist. BUT, thats a good thing, because the juice tastes SOOOO much better once your tastebuds wake up again. I was a LOYAL, dedicated, hardcore Camel Wides smoker for 30 plus years. I tried EVERY suppliers Camel juice, to no avail. i tried Marlboro, Virginia, aint gonna match it. Now, the 510 is an AWESOME unit, great for beginners and vets alike, its what I vape with. As fr the juice, the reason you wont find one that resembles your tobacco, is because there is NO combustion with e juice, so you will never get that "burnt tobacco" flavor youre used to. At first, that REALLY bummed me out, and I wasnt sure if this vaping thing was gonna work. But trust me, give it a week ( if that long ), and youll be asking yourself WHY you ever smoked. If you try an analog, it'll taste like, well, real Camel juice (get it? ). What you have to do is trade off your flavor of regular brands, for the juice brand. Camel juice tastes different than Marlboro juice, so you might find that if you NEVER liked the taste of Marlboro with analogs, it might become your choice of juice. Personally, my favorite is 555. VaporTalk has a version called "Traditional Tobacco", which is the Dom Perignon of 555 ! Its also jokingly reffered to as "Keenans Private Stock" here on VaporTalk. It has great throat hit, and that is something youll have to test for yourself, as some work for some people but not for others. Hope this helped, and dont hesitate to ask any more questions, thats why we're here. Keep us posted on your progress !
  21. Gdub, AWESOME post ! Thats exactly what I was TRYING to say, but you said it WAY better ! There are so much more important things to report about than wether some celebrity is being unfaithful.
  22. Gdub, I PROMISE you, thats exactly where this is headed ! This was a warning shot, to put feelers in the water and get public opinion on where they can lay thier next move. You have to ask yourself, "Why 19 ?" Why not 18, like analogs, or 21, like alcohol ? There is something up thier sleeve here, some alterior motive. I know I sound quite synical here, but its a result of YEARS of watching ridiculous laws get passed that lead to another agenda down the road. I started a topic a couple of weeks ago, where I said NOW is the time to prepare ourselves for the upcoming battle over e cigs.
  23. ROFLMAO !!! Politically incorrect AND hilarious at the SAME TIME !!!
  24. Another shot has been fired in our direction ! Batten down the hatches, general quarters !
