    The Black Patch Tobacco Wars

    "Hillbillies quickly became a source of danger to the Association, mostly due to the Trust being able to refuse to buy from the Association and buy from the Hillbillies for prices as high as nine to 12 cents per pound of tobacco." "By 1909, the Association was a commercial success. The Trust was...

    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    You might be giving some incompetent fool too much credit, not that either scenario is acceptable. I am smoking a bowl, while waiting for someone from the Cooling Center to call and tell me that the ice truck has finally arrived. (There has been an abundance of volunteers over the past few...

    An Act of God?

    It appears as though the insurance company decided to allow God to take the hit on this one. Something more pressing must have came up.

    An Act of God?

    This is definitely nothing new, as there are multiple mentions of it in The Bible and other ancient texts. These are a couple from Deuteronomy: Thou shalt not remove thy neighbor's landmark, which they of old time have set in thine inheritance… Cursed be he that removes his neighbor's landmark.

    An Act of God?

    That is an excellent question, which I cannot answer with any degree of certainty. I know that Mister paid to have the fence installed and that the tree is on the opposite side of the fence but as you pointed out, that does not necessarily mean anything.

    An Act of God?

    I received a phone call yesterday {Thursday, July 4th} at around 4:30pm from a man who, until quite recently, has been my next-door neighbor for the past 6 years. I know him as Mister and even though I would never dare ask his age, his service in the Vietnam War suggests that he is at least 70...

    Who am I?

    The above is prize enough for me, provided that we continue to act like this was a competition. ;) Besides, posting any clues as to my likes would necessitate me to actually have a clue.

    Land management based aerial shooting Pigs Far North Queensland Australia "Beware of a man that owns a pig farm"

    I knew that Australia has had to implement ground~aerial culling of camels but was unaware of any feral pig problems. What is the cane toad situation these days?

    Reducing indoor smell/staining

    Welcome to the forum. I cannot answer your questions with any certainty but staying near an exhaust fan and blowing your smoke through it would have to reduce the smell~staining to some degree. You can tell her that I said "It reduces the staining by up to 90%." so long as you know that I...

    Jim's 50th Pipe Smoking Anniversary.

    I like to win but not as much as I hate losing.

    Jim's 50th Pipe Smoking Anniversary.

    These are my approximate numbers: 200 grams which equals 0.44 pounds (7 ounces) Even though I definitely do not have fifty years left, my competitive nature prohibits me from conceding victory to someone before the clock runs out. Can we call it a draw?
