almost 3 years here in San Diego... I have yet to see a Taco Bell...

BUT we have some awesome authentic Mexican food...and probably the best tacos...fuck now I want tacos
One authentic place where I live. Cheapest beer in town also so I go often. I still live single a lot. Dinner by myself and shit. But I work most of the day, most days. Her food would be frozen by the time I get home

I don't see many people use white slaw on bbq. You from up North? Everyone in NC uses red slaw. Bleh

Nope! I'm from SoCal! Just love the deli style slaw on pulled pork and since I had made a lot for a potluck at work, I saved a little for my dinner. Wife likes the pulled pork, doesn't care for slaw of any kind.

Just FYI, the RPG SXKUSBBB got delayed another 8 days according to FT. I ordered it July 24 and now I'm out of patience. Canceled it bc I need the cash more than another BB.
Freaking ridiculous.

That is one reason I ordered mine when they first came out on FT. I got sick and tired of delays and rescheduled stuff. Oddly enough, I'm tempted to pop a 0.5 EUC coil in a BB and see how it does but I'm having too much fun with the Minifit.

Worst case if I see them pop up I'll snag one. Probably just wind up being a backup though. It's so easy to switch out flavors/setups by having extra boros that it doesnt make sense for me to have two set up at once.

All this talk of food - steak, tacos, etc has got me hungry now LOL...

BBQ is not something we did this summer yet. So hot and muggy outside here in NJ. Staying outside for any length of time feels like I am melting from the face first, especially with a beard.

Nice to see those BB getting use during 'normal' activities and those steaks look great!

August is our nasty month here in San Diego... not hot by any means...normally not higher than 85*...but when the humidity hits 85% its super muggy and it drains any and all energy you may have.

But by the 2nd week of September weather here is perfect til Mid July ;) with an average of 72* ...seriously can wear shorts and T shirts year round and Flip Flops minus 2 weeks of the year ( when it rains )

Side note: Waiting on a response from a guy who may have a Sat 500 + Sat 22 RTA for me

I couldn't be anymore appreciative of my BB than I have been this week. I've been moving into a new house all week as well as cleaning and painting. All the things that come with moving.

I didn't have to fiddle with any vape stuff all week because the BB worked like a champ! Use the same .5 kanger coil @20w for the whole week.
Changed the battery and filled the tank maybe twice a day. Not to mention the portability and simplicity of it.

Special shout out to @Wtmke1 for hooking me up with an extra boro and kanger bridge!

Edit: pic of my plain boring BB. Coils on day 7 and needs replacing when I get home.

Well MF Bridges were supposed to be delivered today, but dumbass put the wrong zip code on it!
When I got my confirmation email (over a fucking MONTH ago!) I noticed it was wrong despite it being entered correctly in my account info. I messaged him and he responded saying it would be corrected.

Nope.

Hopefully it only gets delayed a day or two and it's totally a first world problem, but after waiting for six weeks my patience was wearing thin. FUUUUUUCK!

Sorry, need to get that out of my system. Carry on.

If it doesn't show on vehicle, you should be able to pick it up at the post office.

On the phone with them now and they're checking. Fingers crossed!

EDIT: THEY HAVE MY SHIT! I have to send something anyway so it works out... I'll actually have it sooner than if I waited for my mail to come so that's convenient lol

Reading online about people's experience with Registered Mail arriving from foreign countries isn't making me feel any better. One person got their package 6 months after it was sent. Maybe I'll get it by Valentines Day. :giggle:

I've never had issue with delivery from anywhere outside the US...I've honestly had 3 issues within.

That's the goofy thing. If I had read up about it before, I would have had them ship the MF bridge anything other than Registered Mail. I never have any problems ordering stuff from the US, such as batteries from Illumn, tracked all the way to my door and I get it within a week all for about $9. Even FT orders from China sent ePacket get here within two weeks, tracked all the way to my door. This Registered Mail seems to be the black hole, since Canada Post stopped providing tracking for items sent from abroad.
