Happy Birthday. Yes Chris, this is a GREAT thing youve started. Ive owned a computer for about 12 years now, and this is the FIRST forum Ive ever tried. I joined when I was researching before I purchased, and I just felt like I was at home from the first visit. Since, Ive tried out a couple of other forums, but this is BY FAR the one I come to the most. Kinda my home space. Vapor Talk serves an invaluable need to vapers. Keep up the good work, and thanks to all of the great members here who always make me feel welcome.

Fda Warns On Circumventing Flavored-Cigarette Ban

The scary thing to me about Obama is he is NOT qualified to do the job. Not that anyone can BE prepared to do that job, but he is probably the LEAST qualified of all the candidates that ran. He is already showing his ineptitude with all the "czar" appointments, Like this country doesnt have enough beaurocracy to begin with. He is nothing more than a slick talker, who hob nobbed with all the RIGHT people (Oprah), and told everyone what they wanted to hear. I am NOT racist by any means, I have NO USE for anyone that is, but tell me, if it were a WHITE candidate who spoke EVERY word that he spoke during the campaign, would as many Black voters have turned out ? This was the most racially motivated election in the history of America. And Joe Biden , PULEASE !!! Put him a friggin heartbeat away from the Oval office. Dear God in heaven, what were we thinking. Nancy Pelosi, shes as close to a card carrying socialist as they come. And, to be fair, the Republicans dont offer up much better. They are ALL, Democrat and Republican, self serving egotistical robots who are ALL SO out of touch with mainstream America its pathetic. And almost EVERY politician in this country has one thing in common. THEY ARE ALL LAWYERS. THATS where the problem with this country stems from. We are being run by litigators, not representitives. Shakespear was right - "First, we kill all the lawyers ". -
Im a noobie, so take my response for what it is. I;ve never dealt with Jeso, but seeing his quick response and his handling of the matter, I am going to check his products out. He seems very reputable. I HAVE dealt with Arno at awesomevapor, and CAN speak for his service. It coincides with the company name - awesome. I have tried 3 e juice companys, and Arno has the best price AND the best flavor - for me. Service- AWESOME. Arno ALWAYS responds to his e mails QUICK. And I am having the reverse experience with my Blu and 510. My Blu does not perform well at all, while my 510, which I purchased from Arno, is billowing clouds of vapor consistantly. ( I learned something new today, the attys for the blu and 510 are interchangable ). So there it is, just a noobies perspective. I was bored and thought Id put my 2 cents in, cause you guys dont tell me to shut up like my wife does. Not yet anyway.

This whole situation makes me sick. I dont care if hes white, black, red, green or blue. He is taking the Presidency and making a mockery of it. Acting more like a rock star than a public servant. Hes nothing more than a false prophet. and if I make my feelings known, I will be labeled a racist. These are DANGEROUS times we live in. I believe Democracy as we know it is going to run its course in our lifetime. We are repeating History, and not heeding the lessons once learned. -
Hey guys, time to start worrying a little more. Read this article from today in the Lakeland Ledger here in Floriduh http://www.theledger.com/article/20090930/NEWS/909305023/1410?Title=FDA-Ban-on-Flavored-Cigarettes-in-Effect Big Brother is getting bigger !

By the way I looked up Priapism, and here it is from Wilkipedia "Priapism (Ancient Greek: πριαπισμός) is a potentially harmful and painful medical condition in which the erect clitoris[1] or penis does not return to its flaccid state, despite the absence of both physical and psychological stimulation, within four hours. Priapism is considered a medical emergency, which should receive proper treatment by a qualified medical practitioner. The name comes from the Greek god Priapus, referring to the myth that he was punished by the other gods for attempting to rape a goddess, by being given a massive, but useless, set of wooden genitals." Now THATS a woodie !

Do you mean shake up the vial, or .....

Yeah, Im vapin all the time. My problem is I keep a pack of analogs with me as a security blanket. I was a HEAVY smoker and am still afraid to go cold turkey. Im down from 3-4 packs a day to 1, so Im proud of myself for that, but feel like a chicken for that 1 pack. GOTTA have an analog when I wake up. But Im workin on that too.
-
Hey guys, just a fun poll to see where everyones head is at. Im wondering if Im part of the norm, or abbey normal, cause I vape ALL THE TIME, just like my analogs. And yes, I left off the obvious answer, right after procreation, cause who doesnt.

Just in case anyone hasnt heard, Blu has sent an e mail to everyone to IMMEDIATLY stop using their PCC's to charge as they pose a fire hazard. Check out the web site for info

I got my Blu about a week ago.I did a TON of reasearch beforeI purchased, and I also picked Blu because of the starter kit, it seemed like you got more bang for your buck. They had the sleekest web site and seemed like a real, i dont know, "professional" appearance. I had NO wait time, my order processed and shipped the next day.So no problems there. Having used it for a week, I gotta say, I'm REAL dissapointed. Now, I'm new to vaping, so I did a LOT of research first. I had heard a lot of horror stories about Blu, but I heard just as many positive things. So I kinda figured it would be hit or miss. It was a BIG miss, by a mile. The biggest problem I have is it doesnt do WHAT THEY SAY it will do. I know they're just machines, and I knew it wasnt going to be exactly like smoking, but with the Blu I was spending more time TRYING to get a good vape and/or throat hit than anything. And I mean I tried EVERYTHING, short toke, long toke, primer puff, dip, drip,EVERYTHING. No matter what I tried I just could NOT get a consistantly good vape. I wound up smoking analogs out of disgust. Now, today I recieved my 510 from Awesome Vapor. Let me tell you, the difference is Night and Day. The price was the same as Blu, and you DONT get the PCC or multiple chargers. But let me tell you, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. It is WELL worth the extra money for accesories for a 510 that works as it should, as opposed to getting all the bells and whistles that DONT work. And I dont want to sound like a pitchman, but Arno at Awesome Vapor IS THE BEST. Just check the other forums on here, his rep is UNBLEMISHED. Do yourself a favor if youre serious about vaping, start with a 510 and if you dont like it, THEN get a Blu. If you go with Blu first, your gonna get the 510 eventually. My banner below says I've been "smoke free" for 7 days, but I've been cheating because of Blu.

Also, prohibition came about from the minds of a select few who annointed themselves with the power to decide what is best for the masses. Our nation had just fought a war, our economy was in the tank, and the powers that were took the moral high road and made the people obey. Hmmmm, the 1920s werent much different from today

I was 15. I didnt even inhale for the first 4 months. Cig ads had no effect at all, anymore than tv ads do today. I STILL dont have a Snuggie. Nor do I drink Budwieser. Those of us who were taught to rationally think for ourselves arent really influenced by razzle dazzle advertisments. Thats what infuriates me about SB400, If you eliminate ALL forms of tobacco ads, and if you make tobacco itself illegal, kids and adults are GOING to find a way to get it. A new Al Capone will be born. Didnt we learn ANYTHING from prohibition. Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.

Heres the link from today on Foxnews.com http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/09/24/elementary-school-students-reportedly-taught-songs-praising-president-obama/ I have NEVER heard of this for ANY President we have ever had. I HAVE seem this done in North Korea and China. This really makes my stomach turn. I mean, I dont like the guy or his views, but he is my President and I will respect him, this however is RIDICULOUS. And if HE doesnt speak up about it and make them stop, then he MUST have a different agenda than we previously thought. -

Ran Into My First Problem With E-Cigs Vs. Analogs.
keenan replied to doglips's topic in New Vapers Forum
You know, being a heavy smoker and stressin about being able to afford them, I always wondered, " When I get to heaven will there be a never ending cigarette ?". Well , I musta died ....... -
Yeah, I can tell Arno is a cool dude, just watching his vids on his site. I also ordered some juice from him the day after I ordered my blu, and the juice got here first. I also emailed him and he replied EVERY time. You sound like me, being a heavy smoker, thats why I got the blu so I could charge one while I vape the other. I get SERIOUSLY wigged out if I dont have SOMEthin to toke. I did a LOT of research before I purchased, and I heard nothing but good things about the 510, Arno even told me I'd be dissapointed before it came. It was the price, packaging and PCC that sold me on it. It SEEMED like u got more for your money, and you do, its just the QUALITY doesnt seem to be there. It seems like they play it up WAY too much in there ads, like you get "150 to 300 puffs out of a cartridge". Now, I knew that had to be a little bit exaggerated, but c'mon, you dont even get 50. And if thats all I get with the 510, well fine, as long as i get a decent hit, 50 times. Either way, blu aggravation or 510 elation, I am WAY down from my analogs. And I swear, I never ever thought that would happen. After trying the patch, the lozenges, cold turkey, I just resigned myself to the fact that when they nailed the lid shut on my coffin, there'd be a smile on my face cause I got to smoke. Thanks for the post, its guys like you that REALLY help us noobies out and give us hope. This is an AMAZING product.

***california Ecig Ban - Updated Version****
keenan replied to Christopher's topic in Vaping Legislation & Regulation News
Hey guys Went to my Doctor here in Fla. today for an appointment ( I have High blood pressure, just a check-up ), and I told him I started using e cigs. Now. he's ALWAYS gettin on to me about my smoking, and I was pretty sure I was going to get another good chewing out. Holy crapola ! He thought it was a GREAT idea. He asked me a bunch of questions about them as he had heard but never really knew anyone that used them. I took mine out and showed it to him, explained how it worked, and he thought it was the best thing since insulin. I was TOTALLY surprised. Then we talked about the crap the FDA was pulling, and he rolled his eyes and said, and I quote, " Its all about the money". he is a foriegner, I believe hes from Romania , and he always has an attitude like, well this government may suck a lot but it was a whole lot worse where I came from. Anyway, he offered to write a letter of support that I can attach to my emails, and I got to thinkin, If anybody else out there happens to have to go to the doc for a checkup, put the feelers out and see where they stand. THAT kind of support on our part is PRICELESS. If the Governator, or ANY gov. is reading a letter with Doctors supporting us, thats GOTTA help. Just another idea, thought Id put it out there. -
Yeah, I think that was my MAJOR problem, i was tring to get too much out of a drag ( I.m SOOO impatient ). I keep forgetting its a machine, not an analog. Im getting the hang of it though
-
I just ordered my 510 from awesomevapor this morning, and wouldnt ya know my blu has been workin fine ever since. Anyway, Im pretty sure I saw a PCC for the 510 on that site. If not Ill check around cause i KNOW I saw one. Hey, how long does it take to charge the Blu PCC ? Ive had mine in for 2-1/2 hours and the light is still on. Can you OVERCHARGE them
-
I dont know how to pack a skoal can, but I did try shaking it and it seems to help. I;m just not that impressed with the consistancy of good vapor hits, but i think my expectations may have been a bit high. I was hoping this would be the beat all end all solution. I just need to adjust from analogs and get used to this
-
Holy Batsh#@t. I just tried it with my new Camel liquid.Damn near hocked up my left lung ! OK I;m happy again, as long as it lasts more than 5 puffs
-
Thanks guys, I'll give it a shot. Maybe I;m just over reacting.
