Learning About Your e-Cigarette
laminated articles by Pat Darnell  |  Mar 8, 2014  |  Bryan TX

This Space Age Technology could not keep me from it! I want to know what that atomizer does and how it does it. Apparently it uses a flint or a carbon filament to combine your juice with water vapor in the ambient air, with a slight electrical charge from the battery. When you suck, you get a tangible, palpable, lung full of a clean vapor that goes through your respiration parts, and out to disperse as vapor into the air, in only seconds. Wouldn't it be fun to find out that vaporizing actually cleans the lungs?! Eh?

Are Electronic Cigarettes Healthy? A Way To Smoke Nicotine Without Tobacco? – The Journal

Yes it is correct that Electronic cigarette is a great achievement as compared to traditional cigarette and it is best for those people who are addicted in smoking.

Are Electronic Cigarettes Healthy? A Way To Smoke Nicotine Without Tobacco? – The Journal:   

The Life-Style Journal:  Is an advertiser of sites for e-cigarettes.

'via Blog this'

There is a lot wrong with this title. It should read: Are Electronic Cigarettes "Healthful"? ... and ... A Way to "VAPE" Nicotine Without Tobacco?

There is "no smoke" in the use of e-cigarettes, and there "is a health benefit" in that there is no smoke in the use of e-cigarettes. Groups of people can sit around and vape e-cigarettes all night long and create no malicious tar or smoke residue on the place they are sitting, and none in their lungs nor in lungs of others.

Vaping e-cigarettes has the effect of not affecting anything.

Smoking affects everything around it, and adds too much toxicity to your environment.

Join us as patrons of VAPEgeek, a local supplier and hand-holder for those who want to quit smoking and still enjoy the sensation of inhaling. VAPEgeek HERE

" ... We can all go out and buy an e-cigarette kit, but what do you do with it then? Vape up all of the cartridges that were included in the kit and then - go buy a pack of smokes and write off vaping as another waste of money that didn't work for you?

"... Not if we can help it! All of our kits come with good, detailed instructions, written by us, and we are available all the time to answer questions and guide you to what you need to make the switch. We also have kits available to provide you with everything you need to get in the habit of vaping. [VAPEgeek. vapegeekblog HERE] ... "

Anyone who quit went through a body-wrenching experience; and the kinder milder method of Vape-ing is a step for gentler treatment of addicts. Once they're off, they can keep vape-ing if they want to without the addiction. Glad coffee hasn't become hazardous because I would definitely Vape-it if I could. It is an absolute addiction that my daughter cannot understand. Hehehe, she's a Coca-cola fiend. Sorry that's worse.

Since I'm a nicotine addict and have only quit it a little over 18 years ago I'm going to pass on all forms. However, the concept is intriguing to us who love the stuff. Maybe the holographic pouch of Redman is in the works, with a chip placed behind the ear to simulate a bulging wad of chew tucked in the cheek and that forgotten talent of launching a cataract of saliva across the shop to a five gallon paint bucket...call it Chaw-King.

MooPig e-Cigarette Department :: "Regulations"

VAPEgeeks Want to Know the Low Down
mashed articles by Pat Darnell  |  Jan 5, 2014  |  Bryan TX

[Picture LINK]

" ... Public health officials have asked the [New York] City Council to enact legislation that would add e-cigs to the 12-year-old law that drove smokers out of the city's taverns, nightclubs and office buildings, and forced them to satisfy their nicotine habits on the frigid (or broiling) sidewalks. (December 06, 2013. FoxNews. LINK) ..."

What is the low down on regulations for e-cigarettes? We at MooPig e-Cigarette Department have known for a while that this will be an issue for a couple of reasons. One reason is that cigarette makers don't want the competition. Another reason spins off the notion that nicotine patches, and gums and other nicotine delivery systems are gateways to non-smokers becoming addicted to smoking. Conclusions are unscientific, we can observe that gums and patches have not been gateways. Also, e-cigarette vapor is not smoke, so it doesn't compete with smoking.
[Picture LINK]

Richard Carmona, 17th Surgeon General of the US, wrote a letter to NYC Council who recently fashioned regulations that includes e-cigarettes in NYC's smoking ban. Dr. Carmona, who is on the board of e-cigarette maker NJOY, voices concerns that banning e-cigarettes will "do tremendous harm to what is emerging as the most promising weapon yet in the fight against tobacco-related illness and death."

Those are pretty strong words for the NYC Council to put in their pipes and smoke... and besides "The American people do not want to be nannied." In a canvass HERE, "Poll: Americans Don’t Want to Ban Trans Fats, Energy Drinks, E-Cigarettes, Online Poker, Violent Video Games or Genetic Testing Kits:"

" ... Several cities have moved to ban e-cigarettes in public places, but 62 percent of Americans say electronic cigarettes should be allowed in public spaces. Thirty-four percent favor prohibiting the use of e-cigarettes in public (Emily Ekins. Dec. 13, 2013. LINK)..."

Reason Foundation - Out of Control Policy Blog and E-Cigarette Regulations Likely to Harm Anti-Smoking Efforts, Yet NYC Still Considers Ban: "In my latest Orange County Register column, I note that the wave of regulations local officials are enacting or proposing to restrict the sale or use of e-cigarettes is more likely to harm public health instead of benefit it, primarily by making it more difficult for smokers to transition to safer nicotine delivery alternatives, thus keeping them smoking longer. Here's an excerpt: The rationales for these regulatory actions vary, but often revolve around misplaced fears that e-cigarettes will serve as a gateway to the use of conventional cigarettes by kids and non-smokers, as well as misconception that e-cigarette vapor is as harmful as cigarette smoke to users and bystanders."

" ... New Yorkers who say electronic cigarettes helped them quit smoking asked city lawmakers at a hearing this week not to ban the nicotine inhalers from restaurants, workplaces and other indoor spaces, saying there isn't enough evidence they pose a health risk to justify their exclusion (December 06, 2013FoxNews.com. LINK)..."

'via Blog this'

The vapor produced by e-cigarettes provides a physical sensation and flavor similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke, yet does not involve smoke. E-cigarettes do not burn or use any type of combustion. Rather, they vaporize a solution of water, flavoring, propylene glycol, glycerin, and liquid nicotine, or also nicotine free liquid is available.

War within the EU: European Commission acting against European Parliament’s will on e-cigarettes: "      ...      It is obvious that the Commission’s proposal contradicts almost every aspect of the amendment voted by the Parliament. This should be considered a scandal, shows disrespect towards the will of the MEPs and is an effort to bypass all procedures and implement a strange agenda of illegalizing e-cigarettes. For example, they ask that e-cigarettes should be free from contaminants while they know that this cannot happen and they know that even pharmaceutical NRTs have nitrosamines (at levels similar to e-cigarettes). In any case, they have completely ignored science showing that nicotine is needed for e-cigarettes to be effective, users self-titrate their nicotine intake and any instructions on dosage are useless, and flavors are an important part in consumers’ efforts to reduce or quit smoking. "

'via Blog this'

Dually Drivers, and Hockey Moms everywhere vape, so should you, if you want to quit smoking cancer sticks:

1. Variability of devices and flavors play a major role in vapers’ efforts to reduce or quit smoking
2. Nicotine is an essential part of the success of e-cigarettes, especially during initiation of e-cigarette use

AT VAPEGEEK: "We have a small collection of “Truly 100% VG” based e-liquids as well. Many times, there is a trace amount of PG in the flavorings themselves, and these contain absolutely no trace of PG.

• Blueberry – Sweet blueberry flavor 
• Menthol – Pure Menthol flavor 
• RootBeer – Awesome. Not too heavily flavored so it becomes perfumey like many others, but sweet and really really good. 
• UltraSmooth – This is our regular Ultra Light flavor except made 100% VG. 
• Vanilla – Basic vanilla 

These are our Dekang Flavors:

• 555 DK – A european cigarette flavor fthat has been very popular here in the states. 
• Desert DK – Popular American cigarette brand – think of the animal in the desert. 
• Flue Cured DK – Classic cigarette flavor appeals to the Virginia Slims and BandH crowd. 
• French Pipe DK – Another pipe flavored blend. 
• Menthol (DK) – Dekangs classic menthol flavor – always a best seller and the most popular menthol flavor. Mint (DK) – A peppermint flavor. Mocha Coffee (DK) – Much loved Dekang flavor – so loved I have problems keeping it in stock. Mild coffee, medium mocha. Wonderful flavor – easy all day vape. 
• Pall Mall DK – Classic cigarette flavor RY4 DK – Tobacco with heavy undertones of vanilla and caramel. This is a great transition flavor from tobaccos to the rest of the wonderful world of e-liquid flavors. 
• Triple Menthol (DK) – This is a “super menthol” flavor that is new but much loved already. 
• Twinmint (DK) – Like the gum in the green wrapper. You know, with the twins. 
• USA Mix DK – Americas favorite cigarette flavor. 
• USA Red DK – Americas favorite flavor, red. Vanilla (DK) – A much milder flavored vanilla – loads of people use this as a mixer with tobaccos and anything else that needs a little smoothing out. -

Why should I make the switch? Make the switch from traditional smoking to vaping!
I am sure you can come up with a zillion reasons of your own, but here are some reasons why we did:

• Vaping costs less than traditional cigarettes!
• No tar, carbon monoxide or cyanide in an e-cigarette!
• E-cigarettes produce pleasant smelling vapor instead of stinky smoke!
• E-cigarettes taste better than traditional cigarettes and they don’t stain your teeth!
• No messy ashes or burn holes in our clothes!
• No fire hazard!

Better Lifestyle Daily | E-Cigarette Exposed!:
When smokers try the electronic cigarette for the first time many are shocked at how much it looks, feels and tastes like a real cigarette. Most just can't believe that the electronic cigarette can actually help them quit smoking.

In the United States alone, over 800,000 smokers have already switched to electronic cigarettes.

'via Blog this'

" ... Studies which show that nicotine is about as equally harmful to your health as caffeine. These studies also show that the real harm in traditional cigarettes comes from the tobacco smoke and the thousands of additional added chemicals. (e-Cigs™ Terms and Conditions: Click Here. Oct 21, 2013. LINK) ... "

[Picture LINK]

Most articles about e-cigarettes are still just advertisements to spread the word about a casual and effective way to cut back on smoking, and to actually quit smoking. Why would tobacco companies be advertising about e-cigarettes? They know that litigation in the past against smoking has cost them a fortune, and can no longer avoid their responsibility to warn people about the dangers of lung cancer, and other dread diseases, caused by smoking.

This typical disclosure usually follows all e-cigarette articles on the internet:

" ... THIS IS AN ADVERTISEMENT AND NOT AN ACTUAL NEWS ARTICLE, BLOG, OR CONSUMER PROTECTION UPDATE
The statements made on this website have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, prevent, treat, or cure any disease. ... "

We have such disclosure because FDA has not yet turned their attention to e-cigarette processes for "vaping." Learning to VAPE is, like everything else, a lifestyle modification, but in my experience it is one of the easiest to get used to.

MooPig Vapor Inhaling Department :: "E-Cigarette Health Effects"

This Could be for YOU
Snagged by Pat Darnell | May 7, 2013 | Bryan TX

[Picture LINK]

E-Cigarette Health Effects - Business Insider: "Taking over? Investment bank Citi named e-cigarettes as one of 10 technologies that will change the way the world does business. A potentially cancer-free cigarette — despite all other concerns — is that big of a deal. Citi projects $3.2 billion in global sales by 2015, up from $416 million in 2010.

While that's a huge market, however, it remains only a fraction of the global tobacco market, estimated at $700 billion in 2011.

Whether e-cigarettes take a larger share will depend on many factors, including improved quality and unresolved questions about health."

MooPig e-Cigarette Department :: "Vape-ing is In, Dudettes."

by Pat Darnell | Jan 3, 2013 | Bryan TX

The Electronic Cigarette � The Answer To Quit Smoking?: "If you haven't already heard, Electronic cigarettes have grabbed the attention of countless tobacco users worldwide. Everyone from movie stars to your neighbors are using them. But are they really a healthier and cheaper alternative to traditional cigarettes? Can they really help you quit smoking? Creators and product users now say you can enjoy a cheaper, healthier cigarette without the bad smells, second-hand smoke, or cancer causing chemicals. With these huge claims, we decided to uncover the electronic cigarette for our readers."

'via Blog this'

Are you finding it difficult to find any criticism of the "e-cigarette?" That is no accident. The e-cigarette helps smokers who want to quit, or just slow down a bit.

A few of the benefits claimed from using the electronic cigarette:

• No tar, tobacco, carbon monoxide, or ash.
• Get the same amount of nicotine as a regular cigarette.
• Each cartridge costs less than $2 and is equivalent to an entire pack of cigarettes.
• You can save over $1,000 each year.
• You won't "smell" like a smoker any longer.
• Different flavors are available.
• No more second-hand smoke.

Vape -- puffing the clean way!!

MooPig ReRun -- "My Bucket List Revisited"

Raquel Then and Now
Rerun by Pat Darnell  |  Mar 3, 2012  |  Bryan TX

[Picture LINK]  {---Picture : ...and last but not least MooPig's gratuitous sexist unrelated non-sequitor style is still part of the Bucket list... to one day have a last waltz with Raquel even at age 67}

My Bucket List Revisited

As I get game and gamier, I sense the last tri-mester of my days is one that should be a revisionary era punctuated with symbolic experiences. FAQ: No. There is no terminal illness to prompt this, but the following is:

Pat Darnell's Unofficial Bucket List [though having not seen the movie yet]...
* UPDATE: * Yes, we saw the movie yesterday on DVD, and we wept!

I would like to perform an Exorcism. I want one of those exorcism gap-wrenches that Keanu Reeves has in the movie Constantine. He jumps on the torso of the victimized possessed person, and pulls out a set of coin-like chads on a key ring, makes a guess and plants the disc on the forehead of the writhing demon. That's what I'm talking about, grotesque parody.

Making a movie is one of my bucket list items. Directing, editing, and producing a flick would make my life complete.

Playing music with my kids is a major dream activity of mine. Having a jam session with my clan delights me to no end. Still, it is very hard to get all my players going in the same direction, much less having them all show up at the same time.

I would like to fall into a deep sleep and have a woman made from one of my ribs. Not for a wife or anything, just the thought of it seems likeable to me. You see it would be an exhiliarating feat. We have the technology now, probably in the near future. As the genome is further understood, things like this will happen.

I would like to have lunch with Padre Pio, though he is passed on.

To finish my manuscript finally is a major desire. Then I would like to write the sequel to "Young Frankenstein," maybe treat it like "Older Frankenstein."

One cross-country trip on I-10 with wife and last two kids, is a very attractive idea.

Bulletin: Shooting black and white negative film, processing it and burning photos is always on my mind. Last time I did this was back in the '70s' in the photo labs at college.

Teach oil on canvas to children: give lessons that take them from raw canvas to finished painting.


Entering the Grand Canyon at one end and hiking all the way to the other, is a fantasy I have.


At least one family reunion of all the kids and us. CHECK: Daniel and Megan's Wedding October 1st, 2011... Yay!


I would like to house a horse again, not a fancy one, just one to ride and show kids how horse sense is still the best sense. [Thanks again to Pribek.net for reminding me of "40 acres and a mule."]

The Electronic Cigarette "Hands On" Study by 7WBC

Give your Self-Esteem a Boost !!
retireved by Pat Darnell | April 27, 2011 | Bryan TX

The Electronic Cigarette "Hands On" Study by 7WBC: "To get started, I have smoked for nearly 25 years and I volunteered to be the guinea pig. I applied for free trial of the Direct E-Cig™ Electronic Cigarette. While there are a few of electronic cigarettes ads online, Direct E-Cig™ is one of the most credible and trustworthy suppliers on the market. It included the free trial of the product and it did not try to fool me into agreeing to additional hidden offers. Another reason why I chose Direct E-Cig™ is because it is the most practical and best designed product I found. It has an integrated charger so no need for cables and clutter."

"Also known as the 'E-Cigarette,' these groundbreaking devices are raising a lot of eyebrows. Are they really a healthier and cheaper alternative to traditional cigarettes?"

" ... Because e-cigarettes do not produce second hand smoke, there is no public health hazard to smoking them in public areas. And there are lowered personal risks to you.

Smokers Are Making The Switch

Retrieved by Pat Darnell  |  April 23, 2011  | Bryan TX

Brenda Dains, from Dallas, used to smoke 5 packs of cigarettes a day until just she tried electronic cigarettes. She told us that "I was unable to quit and my health was suffering as a result".

To her amazement, when she started smoking "e-cigarettes", she was able to stop smoking her regular cigarettes just 3 days later.

Brenda told us, "I can't tell you how much better I actually feel. I've tried gum, patches and everything else to try and quit over the years, but e-cigarettes have made my goal to try and quit smoking much easier... I feel like I've been given a "get out of smoking jail" free card, and couldn't be happier!"

Electronic cigarettes can be used with real nicotine cartridges or without nicotine to facilitate ease of quitting for users desiring to do so. An electronic cigarette will quickly become #1 choice for smokers looking to lead a healthier lifestyle.

With the high cost of smoking traditional cigarettes -- new smoking taxes are being levied almost yearly -- and with the danger cigarettes bring to your health, we also give our recommendation and "thumbs up" to anyone looking to give these devices a try.

We encourage all of our readers who currently smoke to give the electronic cigarette a try for their health, and for the health of their friends, families, and co-workers.

"The greatest issue with cigarettes is the 500+ other ingredients added, not just the nicotine. Do we recommend this for non-smokers? Of course not, but for current smokers this is the most revolutionary device to date" - Dr. Travis Stork (E-Cigarette Consumer News - Consumer Health Reporting: The Future Of Smoking?)
