It has come to my attention that I never posted the walk-through video here on TasteYourJuice.com, only on YouTube. Oops…

Typically, I’d just let that slide, however the MVP contest winner is in this video and has yet to claim his prize… the clock is ticking.

He’s got until Monday morning or the MVP goes back up for grabs. Here’s the vid:

This is a great article that just came my way.  THANKS BRIAN!

If the title doesn’t catch your attention…

Why Is The FDA Shielding Smokers From The Good News About E-Cigarettes?

Then hopefully this excerpt will…

Astoundingly, this nascent public-health miracle has been met with something between derision and hysteria by anti-tobacco groups worldwide: globally, the WHO, health-oriented NGOs, the British regulator MHRA, and many nations are sparing no effort to discourage smokers from trying them, employing misleading (even false) alerts and dire website warnings, phony surveys, and exaggerated concerns about youth being led astray. Unfortunately, and embarrassingly for science-based public health policy, our FDA and CDC have been willingly complicit in this widespread disinformation campaign. Meanwhile they purposely ignore studies that indicate the benefit of e-cigarettes for helping smokers quit. I ask, “How could this be?”

Just wanted to say thank you for all your videos. I am brand new at vaping. I have been smoking for 26 years over a pack of Marlborough reds a day. Its been one week of vaping and no cigarettes. Being new to vaping I really enjoyed watching your videos. I have learned so much from you. Thanks again

Phil, just wanted to say thank you for all the work you put into this
hobby. I had a heart attack on sept 10 this year and was smoking a pack of cigs a
day at that time, since that day i have stopped with the reg cigs and am now using a
vamo v3 with a protank II. alot is due to watching many many videos you have
posted. your reviews were very helpful and for a beginner who knew nothing at all
about vaping i would like to just say thank you from the bottom of my heart for
helping me stop smoking. Your passion and humor really has gotten to me and has
really got me into the vaping scene. Hopefully after i learn more about all this
community has i will be able to get into using items like the 134, vtr with maybe a
russian on top.

Again thank you for all that you do.

By popular demand, I’ve added a list of all liquids that received “Street Shout Out”. You’ll see it over to the right under the Information section.

Many thanks to Lynn and Bud for searching through my videos and compiling this for me. If I’ve missed any, please let me know.

In the ECC Pt. 2 video, we talked to the folks from Five Pawns and we tried their Castle Long Reserve. It didn’t get a “Street Shout Out” because the Throat Hit (TH) was a little weak. Problem is, I’ve been vaping it. A lot. Like a real lot. Finally last night I put it in my Russian (you know, the one with the new micro coil) and I got a very satisfying throat hit off of it.

I REALLY like this liquid so it officially get’s a “Street Shout Out” and has been added to the list.

A little pricey for me to vape all the time, but I’ll be buying more for special occasions and just when I want to indulge myself a little bit.

I may have to think about adding this to My Favorite E-Liquid list as well.

Really nice juice guys. I look forward to trying the rest of your line (after I get through the current queue 🙂 )

Hi Pbusardo! (Phil) I just wanted to take the time and say thank you for
your great reviews. Your videos are really the ones I personally look for when in
search of the newest gadget. My wife and I started vaping back in 2009 when Totally
Wicked and Dlight were the only ones that seemed to hold promise. I would go on and
off for the next couple of years but with having a almost 2 year old son I knew it
was time for me to return so I can be here a little while longer. I bought a
Indulgence 18650 and liked for a month then got burned out. So my wife told me to
check out this guy who does these hilarious reviews on YouTube and go figure it was
you. And low and behold your reviews along with ridiculous amount of research set me
on my path. Currently own a SID and a MVP V1 with a EVOD and a Bulldog RDA. Carto
Tanks are my guilty pleasure as well so a Phiniac is on my wish list. Without your
thorough reviews I know I would still be on analogs for sure. Love the no short cuts
on all the devices and atty’s, you really do take the time to really torture test
these products. Being a Store Manager in retail I constantly vape so I do my part to
do my own tests for family, friends and beginners. Thank You for all the laughs and
knowledge that you have delivered for all eyes and ears and hope to see MANY more
reviews and new Dimitri models in the future. Best wishes!

And I’m thinking Star Trek II not the new movie!

So the answer is YES! I’ll see you at VaperCon East. More details coming soon!

I received an email from Fr. Jack Kearney recently, following the ECC event. It wound up being a pretty funny conversation and I asked him if I could share it. He agreed!

The good news is… I now have special dispensation from the church and can continue on with the reviews with my “tongue-in-cheek” humor :-)…

Fr. Jack…

Comment: Hi Phil,

My only regret about the ECC was not being patient enough to wait in
line to shake your hand. I just want to thank you for your incredible
contributions to the vaping world. Your humor and passion touch (and
save!) more lives than you will ever know. None of us can thank you
enough. Please keep up the good work, and I will keep you in my
prayers. (I am, after all, a highly trained professional in the area).
No response necessary…just wanted to say thanks…and will meet you
in person for sure next year.

Fr. Jack

Me…

FATHER!!!! You were there? OMG – How did I not know that or see you!
I would have made the time for you!

Although I’m quite sure we’ll cross paths again in the future, I’d like
to THANK YOU for your very kind words. They mean the WORLD to me!

Now if you would please throw another blessing my way and perhaps some
advanced forgiveness for all of the “tongue in cheek” humor in my videos
yet to come, I would certainly appreciate it! 🙂

Fr. Jack…

Okay, Phil….if you can keep up the humor level of the outtakes from the
Legal Vape 4000 you can have a “general absolution” & “plenary indulgence”
for one year. (offer expires 10/4/2014 at midnight) For your penance you
have to make sure Innokin fixes the fire button and the micro usb port on
the MVP.

See you next year!

Fr. Jack

Me…

Wow, Father I so appreciate your sense of humor. You could probably get a lot more people to church with that!

With your permission, I’d like to post our little conversation on TYJ. I think people will get a kick out of it and appreciate it!

I will thank you again for the support. I’m truly grateful that people get information, strength, and humor from my videos!

I look forward to shaking your hand in person at some point.

Fr. Jack…

Hi Phil,

Yes, as you demonstrate so well, humor is important. People get mad at me now if I don’t tell at least one joke during my sermons. Remind me to tell you about the man who hated Italians. (ahem)

Feel free to quote me at any time, or even make fun of me on my youtube videos. You can even give me a “I told you so” on the MVP button; you were right!

With all your power and influence I hope you can convince Innokin (or anyone else) to make a commercial (i.e. affordable) VW box mod that has a micro usb connection, but also with replaceable 18650 batteries.

Dimitris blessed me with a hug instead of a handshake, so I hope you will do the same when we meet…..

Fr. Jack

Me…

You mean that Greek (expletives left out in current company) knew you were there and didn’t even tell me?

That’s going to put a serious strain on our relationship!

Ok then, a HUG it is!

Thank you Father!

Thanks for the conversation! I’ll see what I can do with Innokin. Hopefully I’ll be able to get an extension on 10/4/2014 at midnite.

I’m glad Dimitris blessed him with a hug.  Also glad I never told him the things Dimitris blessed me with.  HA!

This is a good man, with a great sense of humor, to have on our side (in more ways than one! 🙂 ).

Be sure to check out Fr. Jack’s YouTube channel HERE!

Oh, and finally, I DO need to hear the one about the man who hated Italians (ahem)!  🙂
