Why thank you, Gaius!

Thanks Blackhorse, I'm beginning to feel all the love ;)

See my reply to Eutychus

Thanks, Eutychus. Stay away from any large open bay windows, no sitting down!

Thanks Timbo

Whooah there tiger! First, this "smuggling" I spoke of occurred in 2016, and the recipient received it without paying any fines. Secondly, I was not lying, tobacco can be used as a packing material. I was not in error on the customs form. Thirdly, I would not attempt this in 2024 or 2025, as...

FYI: Cigars Intl (CI) sells only 23 blends of bulk tobacco from 4 manufacturers, Pipes and Cigars.com (P&C) obviously, many more. If one is a first responder, (EMT, firefighter, police, and nurse), one gets 10% off product and free shipping from Cigars CI. First responders just get free shipping...

I was just bustin' on myself, nothing negative meant. I really don't care if members don't like cobs, doesn't bother me a bit. :)

I've heard plenty of putdowns of Corncobs from members of a long ago pipe forum. Now I want to hear some BoB hate speech Re: corncobs. C'mon hit me with yer best shot! ;)

Ok, I pulled the trigger and am now a social security insurance recipient - I'm jobless, too. Someone please enlighten me, I often wake up and have this feeling of being in Entropy. Is this a common malady of the recently retired? :unsure:

Back when Christian Pipe Smokers Forum existed, I once sent a de-labeled tin of Orlik Golden Sliced to a fellow brother in Australia. Apparently, Australia has the heaviest tobacco tax in the world, where a 1.75 oz tin costs almost $30, (USD). I had to get creative on the customs form, declaring...

Hey Mike, I've got a childhood friend I've known for 50 years living in Marrickville, a suburb of Sydney. He's italian and immigrated to AUS when his company transferred him there, living there 20+years, now retired. He definitely fits right in with the laid back Aussie lifestyle. Speaks a...

Ok, I may be new here, but these posts really humor me - none of them reveal a pipe that has actual burning tobacco in it. Further, I believe some, maybe even a lot of them, were made using file photos.:LOL:

As above, Does smokingpipes.com give First Responder Discounts? peter

Patchouli essential oil mixed with equal amount of Jojoba oil. Guess I'm a Freaky guy at heart.

Why, good for you, MM modification man! Necessity is the mother of invention.

I enjoy using these, they've got a solid metal clip, click on and off well, and are decently ergonomic in the hand, (And inexpensive coming in packs of 12). However, I've found that most of the time, when using them intermittently, when one first puts point to paper, a small excess of ink flows...

MM has just recently introduced strong acrylic stems on a 2 or 3 of their pipes- at about double the price. How hard would it be to put strong acrylic stems on most of their pipes? Those cheap plastic stems get crimped so easily. I figure, adding a $3-4 upcharge to the price and by using...

Smoking Scotty's, (Read Sutliffe made), Honey and Chocolate - pretty gross. Complained to P&C.com, got credit, now waiting for pound of Cornell&Diehl "Irish Blessing" cavendish aro.
