I've been in hibernation for the winter! As I am an outdoor piper, it's just been too stinkin' cold to stand outside, or even to sit in the shed. I've had maybe 4 pipe sessions at the cigar lounge by my work, but it's not very convenient to my schedule, plus I always have to buy something...

Hello gents.

[accidental double post deleted. why can't we fully delete our own posts?]

Enjoying English Oriental in my new Irish Harp 80s Bulldog Sandblast. First time I've had a good experience with it. Only thing I don't like about it is that to get it to pass a pipe cleaner you have to do a fair bit of gymnastics.

Never did have that pipe yesterday that I spoke of in my last post. But it was cold and rainy all day yesterday and it was and it was a perfect day to sit inside, eat, and drink. I'm sitting outside having some Plum Pudding in a Peterson 303 Sandblast. About near to perfection, even after...

Merry Christmas, BoBs! I haven't been doing much pipe smoking lately. Mostly just hitting the cigar lounge once in a while after work and before I go to the hotel; so max twice a week, and even then sometimes I'm too lazy to even do that. Weather is taking its toll, since I won't smoke in the...

Technically, the entire bottle is 'a' glass.

Ringo has good taste in Bibles; that's mine as well ;)

What do you think of the Nording pipes? I've had my eye on those before.

I'm thinking of throwing our scale in the dumpster to prevent my wife from using it! Or is there a scale out there you can program to display things like "YOU LOOK FANTASTIC" or something like that? Still fighting the bronchitis, but at least now I have the meds for it, and the cough is...

I don't think I've ever heard anyone rave about an instant coffee. I may have to try it now. We've been using Folger's Black Silk for a long time now. My wife and I both think it's perfect. Once worked on an IT project with a guy 25 years ago who had a side-business supplying coffee to...

I'm always surprised to read about this 1920s pipe. It looks too good! Obviously been well cared for.

You're supposed to use spent cartridges as tampers!

My wife and I have been plowing through "Fringe", on Max. Think of it as "X Files" with better writing and character development. It's like X Files in that it deals with paranormal stuff, but whereas in X Files 'it's aliens' in Fringe it's not aliens; everything is either technology based or...

I'll second that one!
