Surrounded with earth revetment, maybe it could be an effective tornado shelter. This season I saw a crumpled steel grain bin laying in the middle of a field, and those are usually bolted to concrete slabs. Steve

I once worked for a guy like that. He had collected cars for years with the idea of restoring them, and never got around to it. By the time he died, his barn was full of them. Steve

Regarding the second photo, its not clear to me if some of those pipes are supposed to be smoked, or played. Steve

If your database will be relational, pay close attention to the formal rules of logical data modeling, and be thorough about trying to identify all the data entities that could eventually be in the model, even if they are not all implemented in the initial physical database (which is the usual...

This may not be the answer you were seeking, but a sip is a shallow draw of smoke from the pipe into the mouth, and a puff is when you eject the smoke out of your mouth (but then, what is it called if the smoke is ejected out one's nose?). There's nothing wrong with short smokes, they just give...

Sorry...I have nothing risque to add. Maybe I was imagining it, but I think I heard harmony in that kitty choir. It makes me wonder how many tracks the creator had to merge to produce that. The dogs coming into the tune at the end to break it up was very clever. Nice vid! Steve

... and the Ser Jacopo "INSANUS" does not count! Steve

I do his 1-second stretching routine every morning. Steve

At that price you're talking about his Ligne Bretagne pipes. I have two of them and the workmanship is excellent, the bits are comfortable, and they're good smokers. I love 'em both. A word of warning though - pay close attention to the dimensions of the pipes, which he describes on his web...

. Can't say this one is my favorite, but it's worth a viewing. Also, I can't say he's exactly smoking that pipe! . .

I would expect briar, but that's about all. There can be a pipe that smokes well in the bunch, but its a crap shoot. If I were spending that amount, I would use it to buy one mid-grade estate pipe. Steve

. The rustication on those Posellas remind me of the fruiting body of a morel mushroom. This lightweight nosewarmer by David Johnson is my favorite. More often he turns out what I would call "almost-nosewarmers", and I've bought a handful of those. A nosewarmer appeals to me if the bowl is...

What if it's chicken salad? Steve

No. I entered the U of M in 1972 and was directed by Bencriscutto in marching band music practices and the marching annual indoor concerts, and by Asst. Directors in one of the ordinary concert bands (euphonium). Steve

. MisterE, at least, should appreciate this one. I am presently recording it to MP3 tracks. This double album features the program of an historic tour of the Soviet Union (under Leonid Brezhnev) by the University of Minnesota Concert band Ensemble directed by Frank Bencriscutto. Many...

About the photographs, under that sheepskin pad is the steering wheel of my car. I park at some angle to the sun that makes for indirect lighting, or else choose an overcast day, then drape the pad between my torso and the steering wheel and shoot away. Having this neutral background helps...

More confirmation about the connection with Larsen. http://www.pipephil.eu/logos/en/logo-j1.html Steve

If that doesn't work, say the magic words... "Ohwaaa, Tagooo, Siammm..." Steve
