For some Bitcoin is a revolution, for others it’s a scam while the rest of us find it as incomprehensible as to why anyone watches third-rate celebrities in a jungle. Given that vendors such as Stealthvape are adopting it as a payment system it seems reasonable to embark on a little self-education.
Welcome to the blog post next to none will know anything about due to the fact that the bulk of the UK’s vapers are going to party in a field in Shrewsbury this weekend.
It’s a shame really as this is a “Competition” blog post.
What does a “Competition” blog post entail? Well, it looks very similar to normal blog posts but this one has the word “Competition” in it. Four times so far in fact.
Another new dripper is launched on the vaping market. Another three-post, airy dripper that aside from the cosmetics looks like almost every other three-post, airy dripper under the cap.
There’s a proliferation going on, these things are multiplying faster than the rabbits in my garden. One minute you see a couple of drippers but look away for a second and the electronic cigarette version of Gregor Mendel sneaks in and does a bunch of RDA genetic experiments.
Every episode began the same way: Barry Gray’s rolling drums and big horns combined with the thunderous numerical countdown provided by Peter Dyneley. In a small child this produced the same effect as when an adult hears the question “Shall we go to the pub?”
The plot probably doesn’t need explaining, surely there can’t be anyone alive not aware that this secret organisation carried out acts of daring do in order to save lives from mortal danger. And it all kicked off when we got to “1”.
“So, what would you little maniacs like to do first?”
Hands up, I’m emotionally stunted. After encountering the film Weird Science in 1985 I have wasted the intervening 29 years wishing for the day I could alter Kelly LeBrock’s assets on a computer screen. Science has been so quick to embrace ideas thrashed out by Isaac Asimov yet has treated John Hughes’ genius with utter contempt. Shame on you, men in lab coats, shame on you.
In a never-ending quest to bring support to vapers old and new (and slip songs from my favourite bands into the titles), here’s a list of some of the probable and improbable consequences to vaping:
What makes us failures? There’s a big list but according to a newspaper this week the answer is ‘television’.
This could be deeply upsetting news – well it would be if I watched one. I can’t remember when I stopped watching television; it must have been a gradual decline over the years. I do remember that someone spoke to me about a program recently and refused to accept that I hadn’t watched it. To be honest, TV life was never the same after they cancelled Eldorado.
Lots of things are bad for you – for some people it is cheese, alcohol or kinky sex games, Me? I found becoming a human bumper for a car while on my motorobike was particularly deleterious.
It never ceases to amaze me, the number of people who would compel you to do or not to do something because of their opinions. Not because of the science, not because of evidence, but their opinions.
As vapers we are blessed that most of the vendors in the UK are decent folk who bend over backwards to help if there’s a problem. This guide is intended for any person new to vaping or experiences a problem with their product/vendor when buying online.
The guide looks at two things to help you: The Consumer Contracts Regulations and the Sale Of Goods Act.
“Non, Je ne regrette rien” sang Edith Piaf. I don’t regret anything either, I don’t think you can see life’s downs that way.
Motorbike, train, car – whatever, for me travelling is all about the journey and not the destination. It’s the events that happen on the way and the people you meet. It’s the stories you accumulate and the things you experience that give life its texture, that make it a life lived.
