  1. Thanks to the awesome new points system here, I got a nice deal on the Innokin iTaste MVP 2.0 today.

     

    Good timing because my iStick seems to have gone a bit wonky. :) Sometimes it doesn't recognize atomizers, then it will - even if it's the same atomizer. I've been wanting to pick up the MVP for a while now and with the reward system it seemed like a perfect time.

     

    Thanks VT!

  2. T-Bone sounds like you need to find a better place to go. If it is a local smoke shop. They will have no clue to what you are trying to do.

     

    Not sure of what part of MA you live in, but there are several shops around that are vape only shops. I have one close to me that is really good. Wicked Vaped in Mansfield,MA. They are all very knowledgeable.

     

    The other one that comes to mind is Mad Vapes in Worcester. (pronounced Woustah, for those out of state that may come to the area.) And there is Voltage Vape Shop in Springfield

    Yeah, gotta try to find one. I think they are the only SS in the area.  And, I live in MA so I know how to pronounce Worcester, lol. :)

     

    But, that's about an hour drive.  Like I said, I think she is just someone there to keep the lights on and sell stuff. The guy I met there once seemed to know his stuff.

  3. And brought my Stillare and Stingray...asking for some tips on the best way to set it up for use.

     

    The lady behind the counter was first amazed at the item I had in my had and even more amazed when I took the Stillare apart to show here the coils.

     

    She had never heard of dripping and no idea what the "thing" I had was even for.

     

    So, given up I just asked for some wire and she had no idea what that was, either.

     

    Hopefully the guy that owns the place knows and can talk shop.

    Whereas most up-and-coming alternative bands of the early '90s borrowed from the leaders of the pack (Nirvana, Soundgarden, Nine Inch Nails, etc.), Blind Melon were an exception to the rule -- their roots lay in classic rock (Lynyrd Skynyrd, Grateful Dead, Led Zeppelin). And while a promising career lay ahead of them, tragedy would ultimately end the band abruptly. The group came together in 1989 in Los Angeles, although all their respective members had migrated there from other U.S. locales (singer Shannon Hoon from Indiana; guitarist Christopher Thorn from Pennsylvania; and guitarist Rogers Stevens, bassist Brad Smith, and drummer Glenn Graham all hailed from Mississippi). The complete opposite of all the glossed-up glam metal that was permeating the Sunset Strip at the time, the quintet used a refreshing back-to-basics approach, both musically and visually (giving off a heavy retro vibe early on). The band considered several names -- Brown Cow, Mud Bird, Naked Pilgrims, and Head Train -- before agreeing on Blind Melon, a phrase that Smith's father would use to describe a couple of hippie neighbors from back home in Mississippi.

    Here is one of their last live performances on the Intimate, Interactive show from Canadian MTV network Before tragic death of singer Shannon Hoon.

  5. If interested, I'm always willing to do some writing.

     

    I have a blog but would be more than happy to contribute as much as I can...I know I'm not the most experienced or number crunching guy that might attract your more experienced used but I also believe those just starting out would like a friendly voice in the wild.  I would like to see more zines/papers reach out to the noob and just starting out crowd for which I would be willing to help.

     

    Obviously, it being your paper and your baby...I'm willing to work with you, obviously, to create what you want.  And anything I submit would be subject to your advice and editorial input.
