    Peter Kent

    Hey All, Anyone know anything about Peter Kent pipes? I picked up a smooth, straight, apple, unsmoked, from an antique store today for $10. Can't find any fills on it. Name is Peter Kent, Algerian Briar, Made in France. Thanks for any info!

    Maybe the chemicals have had an adverse affect on my taste buds.....how come everything tastes like I'm sucking air?? :mrgreen:

    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    OK, I admit that like most everyone else on this list I was skeptical of Justpipes penchant for Walnut, but since I had heard so much about it and it was there in the box, I had to give it a test drive. I grabbed a Dr. Grabow "Freehand" (which, for a Grabow actually is a really nicely...

    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    Man what a perfect day! Called at 7am to put together a 103-car corn train in absolutely perfect May weather, back at the home terminal by 6pm, a delicious steak dinner and a Boulevard at one of the watering holes, and then I get home to a huge white box reeking of Latakia! I thought the first...

    Nice pass Jason! Just got in from a 9-hour trip, great news to hear Babs is on her way! Now I am just hoping it gets here before I get called for another run so I don't have to delay my sampling for another day! Can't wait!

    Best way,,,,,

    I'm with Tin Man, from tap. Unfortunately it's tough to find good beer on tap anywhere but specialty bars (espescially here in NoDak where taps are almost exclusively Miller Lite, Bud Light, and Budweiser). So, otherwise I mostly agree with TJ, from an ice cold bottle poured into a glass...

    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    FYI for the west box: I've come to realize the bag I used for the Ynidje Supreme doesn't hold moisture. I just grabbed some bags out of a drawer full and apparently they must be freezer bags. I came to this conclusion when I went to go for a sample I pulled and it was completely dry. I think I...

    Possible Smoking Ban Exception

    Just Pipes and PB, you guys nailed it. When they realize (as they already are) that tobacco tax revenues are decreasing they won't decide to repeal any bans, they'll just move on to the next "evil" on the list, eg: alcohol, trans-fat, SUVs, etc. It's seek and destroy, there's no going back...

    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    Thought I better let everyone know Babs arrived and is safe and well in North Dakota! Man, I can't believe what's all in here to sample :D Carlos, I'll get it off to you ASAP. I appreciate you giving me a few days, I'll try not to cut into them any more than possible. Once I get my head...

    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    No problem, been too busy down here to enjoy it anyway! I will probably mail it out on Sat because I will be in job orientation nearly all day Monday and go on call at 0100 Tuesday, so I want to make sure it gets it the mail without too much delay. No problem Jason. I'll still get enjoyment out...

    Fifth Annual Spring Forward Box Pass

    I do not have the box as of right now due to the fact I am still in job training in the cities until Friday afternoon, though it should be sitting at home in Lisbon waiting for me as it was supposed to be brought in when it was delivered. I plan to pull out some samples and do puts/takes Friday...
