@ Gdub - "Golden Rule - Those who have the gold make the rule " Classic, I dont know if Ive been living under a rock, but Ive never heard that one, and I LOVE it. Its SOOOOOO true. it goes to my belief that we have not had a TRUE election in this country for 50 plus years. EVERY elected official in office right now BOUGHT his position. It boils my blood that we refer to campaign contributions as "war chests". Find me a truly poor man, an honest hard working man who is eeking out a living breaking his back and getting his hands dirty, and Ill show you a man who has ALL the right ideas to fix this country.

I couldnt agree more ! Lets face it. We are ALL adults. We ALL know the hazards of smoking, drinking, vaping, unprotected sex, licking light sockets, hang gliding, etc , etc,...... Its ALLLL covered in the Declaration Of Independance under :Life, Liberty, and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS !!!! Those are the 3 words that seperate US from every other country in the world ! Now, the current powers that be, in there effort to "europeanize" America, are FORGETTING that wonderful document that started this country. OK, Im starting to rant again, Ill stop .

I LOVE the name of this topic - "The Noobie Choke " ! It sounds like an old Aerosmith song !

OK, tried the menthol trick. I put 1 drop of VT menthol in a cart that already had VT Traditional, and added 2 more drops as well, and all I can taste is the menthol. Might just be me, as I am so NOT a menthol smoker. Did I not put enuff Traditional ?

@ Chris - You are SOOOO much better st answering these questions then I am ! @ kitsune - I do EXACTLY the same thing with alternating, works well. I havent tried the menthol trick yet, cause I SOO dont like menthol, but if you say it doesnt add to the flavor, Ill give it a try. On an un related note - just walked my dog, and there is a STEADY heavy rain outside, VERY rare for Floriduh, so I gotta go dry off. My dog ( dachshund, his name is Oscar Mayer Doodle Kelly ) HATES the rain, and it looked like I was dragging a wet sock through the streets !

To the first question, dont quote me, but I believe I read somewhere that the higher the nic content, the stronger throat hit. I have only used 24mg, so I cant say from experience. For the second question, my 510 atty getting hot definitly affects throat hit and vapor production. If Im vaping like crazy, after a while I notice a drop off, so I set it down for a few minutes. After a short rest, shes good to go !

LOL! Yeah, I guess I shouldnt have generalized there. Its mainly HER, she never gives anything a fair try and gives up WAY too easy. I have NOT put any pressure on her WHATSOEVER to quit, that would be the pot calling the kettle black.

WHETHER YOU AGREE WITH THE WAR OR NOT,.... Here is something we can do to show our Guys how much we care with the help of Xerox again this year! Please voice your appreciation as there are more serious emotional problems when they fight over in the Middle Eastern Countries than ever before in the history of U.S. XEROX IS DOING SOMETHING COOL If you go to this web site, www.LetsSayThanks.com You can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services. How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! It is FREE and it only takes a second. Thanks Guys

LOL ! Sounds like a plan. I havent been to Ybor in years ( Im not much of a partier, used to when I was in a band ). About the only time I get over the Tampa way is when the Rays are playin, Im a baseball addict ( die hard Mets fan though ).

My wife had the SAME problem JM. E cigs made her throat dry and cough. I told her it did the SAME to me, you just have to get USED to it. She is going to try it again soon, as cigs are way too expensive, but i think its the Female lack of will going on here. OK, all you ladies out there can start BASHING Keenan now. LOL Hey JM, we live close enough to each other, we should get together and FORCE them to (jk). I live in lakeland

I sometimes put 2-3 drops of RY4 mixed with 1-2 drops of Camel Wides. LOVE it !!!!! The Dulcis and Traditional Tobacco from VT are PERFECT the way they are to me. ( Traditional Tobacco will henceforth be known as Keenans Private Stock )

Gadzooks Gazoo ! Dont shoot ! (jk)

Sometimes its painfully obvious, sometimes not. I get kind of a needle or slight tingley sensation when I get a lot on, and when I look down at my unit its covered in juice ( I could NOT have worded that more gross, but its true ). I also have a mustache that tricks me into thinking its leaking after I take a drink. But, if you get enough juice on your lips or tounge, youll definitly know. its nothing to worry about, just wipe it off, or take a sip of water. VT Dulcis actually tastes GOOD to me.

4 Hour woody , 5 hour energy drink ......... OH ! I GET IT ! But seriously, back to topic. I think you could sell ANYTHING out of the VT store. A store with a good rep, the stuff will sell itself.

"I removed a jelly bean from a father's ear yesterday after he got it stuck while showing his son how it can get stuck! It's not hard to sneak up on these folks, if you know what I mean" LOL, ROFLMAO !! That was great Speak ! Sounds like when they retire in Wyoming they all move across the street from me in FloriDUH !

I agree there are companies and orgs. responding to the FDA, but the FDA could give a rats ******** if Mother Theresa sat in thier lobby and told them Jesus likes Vaping. I think the big "unknown" about vaping is - just how MANY of us there are. I think the reason our representatives dont give e cigs a second thought when it comes to health care issues, is they dont realize how many of the people that vote, vape. It seems like the ONLY time you hear about the positive aspects of vaping, is from some group or org that DOESNT vape. I think thats the message, that SOMEHOW, needs to get out. Strength in numbers.

Just an idea here to kick up the fires. I have this nagging fear, that if we dont prepare ourselves now for what may be ahead, our right to Vape will be snatched away from us. It MAY happen anyway, but I dont wanna go down without a fight ( Thats the Irish in me ). We won a victory with SB400 for those of you in California. For what its worth, I think we won that one with a roll of the dice. It couldve gone either way. Ahnold was on our side more because he dislikes the opposition than he agrees with us. I fear if we wait until the last minute, if we wait until they bring the battle to us, we are doomed to fail. Its a David and Goliath issue, and I think you know who we are. Now, I dont know WHAT the answer here is for preparing, thats why Im turning to you guys. Petitions ? Letters ? Sponsorships ? I dont know. Lets all put our heads together and be prepared and come up with a strategy. I will devote ALL of my available time to this, as I know some of you will as well. When SB400 rolled around, we were ALL sweating bullets, and scrambling at the last minute to do whatever we could to try to prevent what we thought was going to be sure defeat. Over the last few months, VaporTalk has grown, and we now seem to have a pretty large family of smart, friendly, creative people. My thoughts are, WHY wait till they bring the battle to us, lets get prepared now, because we KNOW they are going to. I just feel like we may have gotten a little complacent on this matter, and we really cant afford to. Our rights are still in jeopardy, theres just a lull in the storm right now. If you guys think Im a nut job, just tell me to bugger off. If not, what are your ideas.

Awesome review Stomp ! Thanks for the info. Ive heard good things about tastyvapor/ i understand he also sells fluval (the batting inside the cart ). I bought some from Wal Mart, seems to work but not sure if I got the right stuff. Butterfinger sounds like a great flavor, Its amazing how they can come up with that stuff.

Glad to hear you like it khountrygirl ! Keep us posted on how it stands up after a while.

What the heck do you guys put in your water out there in California !? (jk). I hope this guy doesnt vape ! http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_face_spitting

I used to get SOOOOOOOOO much crap for my smoking, and it was deserved because I smoked 3 plus packs a day. But I always told people to kiss my white Irish arse, DO NOT judge me for doing something that is 100 % legal in 50 states ! i havent had any negative reactions to vaping, I almost wish someone WOULD say something to me so I can open up a can o whoopas* on them.

@jmhester - Couldnt agree more ! Those type of people have names - Ellen Corbett , Hillary Clinton, Tipper Gore , Barack Obama , Nancy Pelosi ....... the list goes on and on. They believe thier way is the ONLY way, and INSIST that everyone conform to it. Those that dont are sub-human and dont deserve the same RIGHTS that they have, the right to CHOOSE. There was once a sick and twisted little hypocrite from Austria who had the same opinion and views. His way or the gas chamber. I REALLY dont see a difference between them.

Thats how I had my 3 gigabytes !

Not me. I stay with the 24 mg, and I am still polishing off some 36 mg I had laying around. Im going to try to drop down to the 18 mg in a week or two. But, like smoking analogs, I enjoy vaping, I wasnt trying to quit analogs when I started vaping, it just happened. And Im not trying to ween off vaping. I thoroughly enjoy it. I dont drink, do drugs, or have pretty much ANY other form of enjoyment, so why quit ? Im not saying my life sucks or anything like that, Its just something I get pleasure out of, so Im going to continue to do it. Ellen Corbett be damned !

No, but THAT can be a problem !
