    Fun stuff

    Good you had it checked out. Sometimes a wrist injury can result in reduced or no circulation. Very bad.

    Emma, I checked the member list. And since this is an old thread it's possible that theluddite may have changed his notification email address and not seen your message to him. He hasn't been on this website since Sep 5, 2022.

    What was your fastest car?

    1964 Ford Galaxie Stationwagon. Took forever to get up to speed, but would run with the 160mph Dodge Chargers on the newly built, and not yet open Interstate 55.

    Samuel Gawith Burnt Ends

    It is tasty. And, I know 1792 isn't the same as Bracken Flake was. But I sure wish they would use the 1792 tobacco and the Bracken Flake flavors, scents, toppings, whatever. Give the blend a new name like "The Glorious 12th". Or something. Actually I think the tobacco used in Bracken...

    Samuel Gawith Burnt Ends

    Just so y'all know. These may require a bit of preparation, as mine came in slabs and chunks. Which I kinda like. If you are expecting sliced flakes, you may be disappointed.

    Can anyone help me identifying?

    It's in the style of German (perhaps Austrian) pipes of early last century. The bowl is probably porcelain. This one has a wind cap on it to keep weather out. Looks to have a branch as a stem with a horn piece on it. If you search German smoking pipes, or German porcelain pipes, you should...

    Secret Santa

    Well howdy from PA Dutch Country

    Welcome to the group. The BoB forum history takes us back to what was once the Knoxville Cigar Forum. Not sure where that post is about our history. Some of these guys go back to the old usenet groups. Activity is up and down. New members are welcome.

    .22 rifles

    My .22 rifles are centerfires. I am amazed, and appalled, that I do not own a .22 rimfire rifle.

    First McClelland

    Tobacco Reviews has a basic description and plenty of reviews. 2000 was a bulk Virginia blend with light aromatic flavors added. Jim Inks review has it covered very well. I cannot put my hands on it right now without a search. But I think I have an 8oz tin by The Bufflehead Shop and maybe...

    A class act is gone
