Been on a Blitzen Trapper kick recently. The only way to describe them is something along the lines of "new age, groovy folk". I could see how they may not be everybody's cup of tea, but I think people of a wide variety of musical tastes would be able to find a song by them they enjoy...

After a pretty miserable past 24 hours, it's nice to kick back and unwind a bit with a bowl pack. Stay safe and happy everyone! :D Time for me to fire up my Arizer Solo!~~ ;)

I've been listening to a lot of Real Estate recently. A poppy, indie, new-wave'ish sounding band. Pretty cool guys as far as I can tell, too. Really been enjoying this one song, "Beach Comber", in particular. Reminds me of summer :nod: another one I really like:

My 'Solo' never lets me down. Zoom~~

In light of this news I'm feeling very glad I went the route of refurbishing my old Solo in lieu of buying a new unit. I can't really pat myself on the back, though; yeah, I'm just as stoked as the next guy but I never saw this coming. Calling it a 'stroke of luck' would probably be the most...

As a former chemistry student I just wanted to quickly add to the discussion: my understanding of the battery-related (lithium-ion, specifically) explosions is that it stems from the electrolyte liquid used in the battery. To make things as simple as possible, li-ion batteries work as...

bump~~

Yeah we've seen a lot together, that's for sure. Lots of good, some not-so-good either. :) With regard to the screens I'm a bit ashamed to admit this but I crafted a screen using the filters, or screens, if you will, from my bathroom faucet. Soaked it in 90% isopropyl alcohol for about 30...

An update on the state of my refurbished Solo: it works! Charged her on up, found a makeshift screen and got to work. Started at level 2, taking two draws, repeating the process for 3, 4, and eventually working my way up to level 5 -- no issues at all. The hits were robust and tasty. Man did I...

Hi all! I'm a former FC member who due to work-related reasons had to bow out from vaping for quite awhile. After coming back and spending some time with a gravity bong (smoke! *gasp*) and the MFLB (quite a nice piece, I'll say), I still found myself drawn to the Arizer Solo, my first ever...

After a weekend of taking gravity bong hits with friends *gasp* I'm back to using my MFLB. Hard to fully appreciate the effect(s) (or lack thereof) of vaporizing as opposed to smoking without having actually smoked for awhile. I also was lucky enough to stumble upon a sativa after several...

Shall we...! :)

Not particularly new, per se. Vaped rather heavily from mid 2013-late 2014. Took a break for a year-and-a-half. I was vaping prior to my first eNO test on-and-off. Haven't mentioned it to the doctor. He believes the inflammation is from a significant allergic response to my environment. They...

Full story below, tl;dr here: I had my exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) measured on three occasions. eNO is a biomarker for lung inflammation. The scale for eNO is as follows: 0-25 (ideal) 26-49 (high, but not terrible) 50+ (really, really bad. extreme inflammation) I was initially very high on...

I have a yoga ball that I routinely bounce on -- I find it quite therapeutic, helping to reduce anxiety, boost mood, and help me think. It all sounds quite strange but to each their own I suppose. I'll sit on that and slowly bounce up and down while hitting my MFLB. It's quite nice and seems to...
