    Broken Pipe - Craig Cobine

    Very Sad News. RIP I’ve known Craig for a long time. We shared a love for all things Dunhill. Here we are together at the show in 2013. https://www.friedrichjones.com/obituaries/Craig-J-Cobine?obId=31117226

    water to rind ratio - talking oranges and shrinkflation

    I picked this monster off a neighbors tree yesterday. Thought I hit the jackpot until I cut it open. What a disappointment. His other tree has delicious thin rind ruby’s but most are very small.

    The Chicago International Pipe & Tobacciana Show April 10-14, 2024

    I’ve never missed the Chicago Show. I’ll be flying in Thursday morning and leaving Monday night. I’m excited, I have a magnificent pipe waiting to be picked up Sunday after being displayed. The new location looks great.

    Tobacco storage in a pipe stand.

    I have the tobacco I keep in a decorative humidor in a plastic bag. I wouldn’t mess with the stone. From experience nothing good would come of it. A small Bovida if necessary.

    Astronomy and Pipe Smoking Enjoyment

    We live part of the year in a light restricted town in SoAZ. The night sky here is beautiful. We love sitting in the hot tub at night watching the stars, satellites and occasionally the ISS fly over us.

    Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh! My furnace & AC died!!!

    Our old package unit in SoAZ failed in the summer a couple of years ago. You wouldn’t believe the difference in quotes we got. I ended up paying under half of the highest quote for the same specs/warranty.

    February 20 International Pipe Smoking Day

    I was active on Smokers Fourm when a group of the guys launched IPSD. I pooh poohed it but I’ve got to say it has really taken off and become day to rally around our hobby.

    Hello From North Dakota

    Welcome from SoAz! Some really interesting recollections from the good old days. I know that cutter had a historic life before McClelland. I don’t know what happened to it after they shut down. I have a MT birth certificate but my earliest days were spent in western ND. My peeps came from...

    Cuba Libre!

    Wow! Nice! What that cost? Last time I shopped Habano’s I was blown away by the “confident” price. They were always expensive but the new co-owners of Habano have expanded the market and doubled the price.
