I'm interested in the electronic cigarette because I can basically smoke it anywhere and its much cheaper than buying pack after pack in my opinion. What is the best brand, or better yet, what brand gives off the most smoke?

This is part of your mythology, right?

Sure, Elise. Make a funny so I can't delete the spam. *g*

I hereby propose that we call amusing spam "electronic cigarettes" from now on. And rate them by how much vapor they emit.

Ah, if only all spam were truly vaporware.

But apparently at any given time they are funneled through a very small number of banks.

I'm a little worried about what might happen if Pollyanna met Hafs. I think she might irritate Hafs. And that could be bad, especially for somebody who sucks on electronic smoke-emitting devices for fun, if those devices have a microchip in them.

I'm still working out how to build a SPAM smoker. I mean, spam isn't that big, really. Maybe use a #10 can instead of an oil drum? Would that let us have enough fire to do the job? Though Pollyanna, being fictional, should not get to meet Hafs, who is Real.

Do you want to cold smoke or hot smoke your SPAM? I've got plans for backyard, disposable versions of each.

Tell me more of this cold smoking. It would seem to work better as a riff on electronic cigarettes, as well as somehow feeling more fitting for SPAM.

"Cold smoke" also seems somewhat...odd, if not thoroughly anomalous.

Sounds like an episode title to me.

Cold smoking is for things you will want to cook afterwards. It's curing but not cooking. Bacon is cold smoked. Basically, you take two insulated boxes -- cheap styrofoam coolers are fine, or any kind of box you can line with even light insulation -- run some kind of conduit 4-6" diameter between them, with a little fan to pull air from the first chamber to the second. In the first chamber, you put a hot plate with a tuna can full of shavings of wood-of-your-choice, and in the second you hang the meat you're smoking. Pick a day below 40F, or make sure it's a WELL-insulated box and store some ice in it. Keep it all going for, oh, 8-10 hours.

Oh, hey, the cold smoker that sticks in my mind was a permanent brick installation thing, on a hillside.
It's also for things that are not improved by cooking. Like salmon.
