I can’t believe tax parity and a mail order ban didn’t happen years ago. I’ve been saying this for years, 99% of “pipe tobacco” sold is RYO cigarette tobacco relabeled to avoid taxes. Did anyone think Big Tobacco was going to let this happen? :geek:

I switched over to Bovida packs a few years ago to avoid this. :geek:

I’ve been saying this for years! IMO Your employer and your insurance provider will determine your lifestyle choices more and more. Think very carefully about the screening questions they ask you when you’re sitting in the doctors office. :geek:

The 2021 show was canceled. See you in 2022 Lord Willing!🤓

Hopefully everything will workout! I booked a room and am planning on attending Thursday through Sunday. Getting vaccinated in time was a concern when I booked the room but just yesterday one county in AZ lowered the Covid-19 vaccine age yesterday to 55 and over so we’re driving two hours to get...

I’m an armchair only pipe smoker who was pretty much a clencher until I broke my tooth. It took about a month to get a permanent crown and I sort of got out of the clenching habit. The new crown has a different feel than my old tooth but it holds the pipe pretty well but it still isn’t a natural...

Hello from Green Valley AZ! 🤓

Wishing You All The Best fo a Full Recovery! I hate those dreaded Tri and Quad level houses. I get the concept but they are a pain in the *** and now that they've gone out of style they're a hard sell.

I enjoyed Larry on the radio and on TV! I liked his style very much and I missed him when his time ended on CNN. RIP

+100%! This is what I’ve always thought. Another rumor that I believe is that Sobranie House never transferred to Gallagher was a secret herbal tea like blend that was steeped in the water they used to steam awake the raw tobacco early in the process. Who knows. 🤓

Nice! I never heard of Footskins but I live near Spring Grove and I’ll check them out when I get back in the spring.🤓

LoL! this is a zombie thread from 2 1/2 years ago. 🤓

I built most of my cellar of PSBS ounce by ounce over the years at my shop but I mail ordered a couple of 5 pound bags from Mars 2009 and I seem to remember it was around $1.60 an ounce. I sort of remember it was less than half of what I was paying at my shop. I’m smoking some of the vintage...

I watched my crew shovel twice over the 4 day Christmas weekend on my Ring Doorbell from Sunny SoAz. :geek:

I never know what’s around the next corner Castello/Dunhill wise but I’ll stay picky so I have the money when the right piece appears. I hope the vaccine takes and we can get back to pipe shows again ASAP. I hope to add a smooth piece to match this large Carmette billiard carved by my buddy Adam...

I can get more from rereading a 30 year old Ephemeris than I get from the pipe boards but I still come back and enjoy scanning them all daily! I really enjoy some of the specialized Facebook pipe groups. You get collectors from all over the world who you can geek out with. I spend a lot of time...

Great Looking Collection! Mike was a buddy and club brother and I miss him. We were just reminiscing him last week at our zoom pipe club meeting. RIP

Can't blame them for trying. A lot of people don't want a car after the warrenty expires. We've found Subaru dealers to be by far the best car buying/trading experience we ever had. :geek:

I love KC, we pass though it 4 to 6 times a year on my way to and from AZ. I time it so we get there for lunch or dinner. Just had a great lunch at Arthur Bryant’s BBQ a couple of weeks ago. KC is a great pipe town with an active pipe club and in normal times I attend the GKCPC Pipe Show every...

Happy you and yours survived! We’re been in Glacier NP the last few days and you couldn’t see much at all. :shock:
