Make some kind of arrangement to pay the bill...but please do not commit insurance fraud. Doing that could potentially make a bad situation worse. Consider it a wake up call, a learning lesson, and move on with life. In the grand scene of things, this is pretty petty.

Just watched again...and I don't see a taser. Do you see one, Scruit?

There is no such thing as an "off duty" police officer. They have the right(and the duty) to enforce the law at any time. From what the video showed(and just based on that evidence alone), I fully support the cops decision to use deadly force.

Ecigs, vaporizers and other tobacco alternatives

Provari Mini Stealth in 18490 mode, polished Russian 91% running a simple 1.5 ohm single coil of 28g Kanthal with organic cotton for the wick. At 4v, it'll knock you for a loop. 18MG Grant's Vanilla Custard never tasted so good! -

I've never read a report or had an intelligent conversation about e cigs where someone would say they are "healthy". Is it a "healthier" alternative than smoking? Absolutely. There is no evidence to deny that fact, and tons of evidence to support it. The e cig business is huge! Billions of dollars in 2013, as opposed to millions of dollars in 2012, and it's only getting bigger. All of the horror stories that are being reported by news outlets are funded and directed by both big tobacco and drug companies. Both of them stand to loose billions because of the popularity of the e cigs. Big tobacco wants the e cigs to be federally regulated in a way that only they can produce them to a standard set by the FDA. Drug companies want them gone because no one is buying their patch or gum anymore. Something is going to happen soon with the FDA as far as regulations go, and if e cigs are regulated to the point where the use we know and love now ceases to exsist, I'll express my disapproval by stopping all together. Big tobacco has lost my business forever, no matter what. -

If someone used to be a smoker, and now uses an e cig exclusively, they will use the e cig a lot more often than they'd actually "smoke" a cigarette, FYI. An e cig delivers the nicotine in a different way than an analog cig(vapor versus smoke), depending on the MG amount of nicotine it can be a stronger or weaker "hit" than an analog cigarette, and where as one would normally smoke a cigarette until it was finished, the convenience of the e cig makes it a "draw or two, then set down" ordeal. I'll take a hit or two, then set mine down, just to pick it back up ten minutes later. I use 12MG per ML nicotine, and use approx 2ML per day. Analog wise, that's less than half a pack of smokes. -

I like stories with a happy ending. -
One thing I have found in the past, it's best to shop around and compare apples to apples coverage every few years. That, and it's impossible to compare what one person pays versus what someone else pays...too many variables. With that said, I've been with the same insurance agent and Erie Insurance for 8yrs, and their rates for comparable coverage have always been great. More importantly, the few times I've had to make a claim, they have been fantastic. Three years ago, my car was broken into in my condo parking lot. I had about $250 of personal property stolen. At the time of the claim, I was denied any compensation for items taken from the car. I was told by the adjuster that those items were covered under my home owners policy under a separate deductible. Because the amount I would claim was basically the same as my deductible on our Home Owners policy, I never filed a claim. Last year I was going over all of our insurance information and happened upon "what's included" in our auto policies. Guess what? Erie covers up to $300 in personal property if your vehicle is broken into. One call to my agent, and I had a check for $250 in a little over a week. It was literally a five minute phone call! My agent is awesome!

Great Lakes Ice Cover Is the Largest We've Seen This Century

This winter has wreaked havoc on transportation industry as a whole this year. Trains have been affected all over the United States...the only good thing, it's been a good time to make lot's of money working in these shitty conditions. Just last week I was in the hotel in Cleveland and I talked to four guys from Duluth MN. that were going to work on an icebreaker tug. They were going to rescue ships that have been stuck for better than a week(and I thought my job was bad at times). Semi-quoting one of my favorite movies: "If this ain't a mess, it'll do till the mess get's here". -

God forbid I ever have to draw my weapon and shoot it to defend myself or my family...but if it ever happens, I'll have no problem explaining to my peers that it was fully my intent to cause death when I used said deadly force, as per outlined in Ohio's law. Sec 2901.05 (B)(1) Subject to division (B)(2) of this section, a person is presumed to have acted in self defense or defense of another when using defensive force that is intended or likely to cause death or great bodily harm to another if the person against whom the defensive force is used is in the process of unlawfully and without privilege to do so entering, or has unlawfully and without privilege to do so entered, the residence or vehicle occupied by the person using the defensive force.

Besides the obvious fact that she's beautiful, has a great body, and has some great moves twirling a hoola hoop...I LOVE that she's always smiling! Her smile...DAMN. She just looks like a cool ass chick to know. And by know, I mean fuck, on a regular basis, face to face. Am I right, or what!

Building youe own coils takes this: A multimeter. A good one. It will last you forever, and can be used for much more than just building coils. I have this one. http://www.amazon.com/Fluke-115-Compact-True-RMS-Multimeter/dp/B000OCFFMW This is also good and handy to have, but not as accurate: http://www.madvapes.com/ohm-meter-kit.html I use my multimeter to build the coil, and I use the ohm meter kit to check it occasionally once it's built. Besides using E cig Forum as a guide, I watch PBusardo almost exclusively. He has a great website, and does tons of videos. With so much bullshit out there, he is a guy you can trust. http://www.tasteyourjuice.com/wordpress/ I don't get fancy with my coils...that's the reason I chose the KFL+. It works great on the most simple of coils. 28g Kanthal wire wrapped 10 times around a 1/16" drill bit gives me a 1.2-1.3 coil everytime. It's really about reading what works for other people once you decide what kind of RBA you want to get...then practicing with it. Do you have a RBA in mind your interested in? Are you on E Cig Forum? I'm BadTrainDriver over there too, fyi. -

I smoked analogs for 24yrs, and I loved them! Those on here that know me knew that I'd smoke a cigerette wherever possible. Working nights almost exclusively, my cigerettes and coffee where more important that food at times! On October 7, 2013, I smoked my last cigerette! I had purchased an Ego twist battery and Mini Protank setup, a couple juices...then a couple more, and found I really enjoyed vaping. Over the course of two weeks, I slowly reduced the number of analogs I'd smoke every day...until one day I just didn't want them anymore. I now rock a Mini Provari Stealth with either a carto tank setup, or a Kayfun Lite Plus RBA. I love that with carto tanks I can carry multiple tanks ready to go...but the flavor is highly muted compared to a quality RBA. One hit from the RBA, and you'd be like TAKE MY MONEY! Building coils is a breeze, and only need rebuilt every few week. Sterile cotton balls from CVS, boiled, make an excellent wick. Juice...God, where to start... My go to places: The Vapor Chef, Grants Vanilla Custard, Bryces Vanilla Creme Custard, Five Pawns Absolute Pin and Castle Long Reserve, Pluid if I'm feeling it for the day...but never an all day vape... I've seriously have enough juice to last me a year if I didn't buy anymore. Is it cheaper than smoking? It CAN BE. Some people make it a hobbie. I just wanted something that was going to work 100% of the time, and be relatively maintenece free. I'm saving money NOW...but I didn't at first. Lastly, I'm 40yrs old...but feel ten years younger since I stopped smoking, and I don't stink, and it doesn't bother me to be around smokers. I have not had one laspe, or desire to smoke, since I started vaping. I love it. I truly do!
