This was definitely a smile for me. Idk who was in on the conversation about compromised websites but Sourcemore came up when @Silhouette or was it @authormichellehughes did a Sucuri scan and found security risks such as outdated software, etc. Being a customer of theirs I was concerned and contacted them. A long train of emails ensued. Without posting all of them the most recent said it all.

Hi Karen,
**Just let you know that we have bought Sucuriās service. **
**Now we are in the process of the setup. **
**Have a nice day! **
**Best regards, **
Moira
So their rep, Moira, stepped up to the plate and convinced upper management to invest in a website upgrade so their customers could feel confident doing business with them. I am impressed with the collaboration and the transparency she conveyed. No excuses, no bullshit. Just a thank you for bringing to her attention that we were not happy shoppers.
She also asked which forum where this was being discussed and came here to talk to us. I found it refreshing to see a business care like that. As soon as they are finished with the set up Iām going back to get some gear I had my eye on.
Well, there was a little hemming and hawing from upper management about how costly and time consuming an upgrade would be. But I guess they decided to contact Sucuri and Sucuri must have convinced them otherwise with a good deal. What do I know? I know nothing about building websites or cyber security. But I do have a knack for talking with the Chinese We seem to get along famously
When I hear stories of complaints from westerners about their bad experiences dealing with Chinese vendors I just chuckle. All you have to do is have an understanding of who your talking to. The Chinese have a passionate work ethic and take great pride in their business. Respect and honor is important to them. If you approach the conversation bearing that in mind youāll go much farther than if you start slinging mud pies. Just show some mutual understanding and a bit of respect and youāll go far. Iāve even been invited to contact Fasttech reps just for friendly conversation. Weāre not all that different.
This made me smile yesterday. I was buying Butter Rum Cavendish (Stixx Mixx) to make Stixx Ruyan Custard by @authormichellehughes and I decided to try one of his coffees. When the order came I found a free bottle of Kona Coffee in my package. YESSS!!!
I made a Stixx Ruyan Custard? hmmm donāt have the Stixx Mixx flavors hon. This is what made me smile today and no one else can see it because the book isnāt finished LOL My cover artist sent it over and I was very happy with my Wolf man
I am so sorry. Rather, I should apologize to @TamVapes who created the recipe. But I would like to congratulate you on your book. May you sell a bizillion copies
Lots to smile about. I painted my unfinished garage this weekend and started the process of sealing the floor. Sadly I donāt get to finish until Thursday since it will need 72 hours.
I managed to get mixing bottles cleaned today, oven cleaned, and a few other little things. Purchased a weed wacker and an echo blower over the weekend. Now the edges look acceptable and patios and driveway look good.
Now Iām going to just settle in and relax since I need the rest for work tomorrow. Lol.
Catmo 2.0 is COMPLETE!!! Still have a few finishing touches to get done, but the kids are finally coming home tomorrow! Gets me all weepy just thinking about it!
wow @paingawdā¦ a mini mix room off the main house and a chicken coop area??
*ducks!! haha!! You are making progressā¦ Looks real goodā¦ just think back when you see these pix againā¦ it was all worth it
I have a similar FreeMax atty. The 4-coil ones are bitchinā. Like Smoky I wasnāt happy with buying coils, so like you I washed in my ultrasonic with hot water and then found that a Q-Tip with the majority of the cotton pinched off, fit right down the holes and removed alot of crunchy carbon residue not removed by the ultrasonic bath. @anon84779643 give it a shot ā¦and if you never tried the quad coils, check 'em out. Mine lasted 3+ weeks (but I was vaping only two flavors of juice during that lifecycle with clean burning juices)
I must admit, I soak my coils in Vodka
Disclaimer: My wife is half Russian / half Polish, so thereās always plenty of Stoli around!
(Oh yeah and plenty of Temper )
We seem to get along famously
