    Why Is Membership Small and Participation So Light?

    No complaints from me. I love reading thru all of them. Yes, some of the forums are repetitive and usually cover the same territory, but I don't care. I'm just grateful that some dedicated administrators and fellow members can give a venue, and a place to go and read-all-the-latest, for us...

    I Wonder About People

    Both interesting, and yet, sad. After our own "Great Translation".... 50 years later, no one will remember who or what we were in life........

    This was funny after it was done...

    Hilarious. Personally....I would've just dumped her thong -or anything else she leaves lying around- into the trash....especially if you have to constantly remind her to tidy up. I think it's much funnier watching her dig out her personal items from the filthy garbage

    Developing your own home blend

    Thanks for the very useful information, suggestions, and comments that you gents provided to this forum. Nice that you guys shared your recipes with us. Again, thanks. I have smoked through a few samples of the John Patton mixtures, including "Storm Front" which is absolutely one of the...

    Tweaking your "Meh" blends

    So thrilled and joyful that you decided to try "Benediction", a hybrid-blend that I mixed, totally on a whim. I'm happy I did...and happier with the results of my experiment by mixing two very different blends. It was pure luck. Check you PM.

    Sleeping Naked

    After showering, I caught a glimpse of myself, naked, in a full-length mirror. The sight was so nauseating and repulsive, I was forced to avert my eyes. I'm shuttering at the vivid recollection, even as I write these comments. So, I would NEVER sleep naked, or do anything, naked. My sense of...

    The sweet smell of briar

    I also just love the texture of shaving cream. I wish it was whipped ice cream, so I could eat it. Don't judge me.

    Tweaking your "Meh" blends

    To OP, et al: Yep! The way to do it is to tweak it, and not to freak it. That of that "meh" blend as a work-in-progress. It could be changed very easily to a "much better" mixture ..with a few minor additions of specialized condimental tobaccos, or even by adding some small measure of...

    The sweet smell of briar

    If you love rubbing on smooth briar, you should try a briar "touchstone". It's a smooth 2" piece of polished briar with a thumb sized depression in the center of one side. It fits right into the hand and your thumb naturally finds the smooth dent as you rub the briar.

    The sweet smell of briar

    Actually....now that you bring up things that get sniffed..... I sniff pipe-tobacco. I would love to have a pouch of pipe-tobacco strapped under my nose instead of these PITA Wuhan masks. I just love the aroma of pipe tobacco, any pipe tobacco....even those pipe tobaccos that're heavy with...

    X-ray

    I'm repulsed, and shocked by you mentioning what I was thinking! What's wrong with you?;)

    Hot Peppers

    Interesting. I read thru all the comments and postings, with wonder, and some mild amusement. I'm always astonished that some guys/gals can actually enjoy burning out their mouth, guts and butt-holes by eating the hottest peppers that God created. But, whatever. Like I mentioned....it's...

    Snooty Tobacconists and Exploring a New Hobby

    Perhaps the snooty B&M owner doesn't quite realize that pipe tobacco hunters have dozens of other alternatives regarding where they buy their tobacco. He's too snooty, I guess, to know that he has some competition. If he was any kind of salesman, he would have given you a few grams for a trial...

    My New & Best English Blend

    Thanks for the verification regarding the nicotine content . This information is completely counter to what I always thought, mainly based on the aroma of the aggressive, Latakia. Now....I know. Now I can mix up a small amount of "Chocolate Manhood" without the thoughts that my head would...

    My New & Best English Blend

    Is this true? Can this be real? I just read that Latakia contains very little nicotine! Due to the long process of turning tobacco leaves into Latakia the nicotine content diminishes. Also noted... that when smoked, straight....it's very mild and smooth, but aggressively aromatic, and smoky...

    Scary movies

    When I do a title search, it comes up on my NETFLIX...but when I click on the title, I get other selections that are "similar". Maybe, I'm doing something wrong. When I spell out the title, the NETFLIX selector seems to "guess" what I'm requesting, but I can't get the movie, when I click on...

    Scary movies

    HELP! I looked for all those movies you listed on NETFLIX and could not find any of them. I'm not very tech savvy when it comes to TV alternatives, but where and how do I find these movies? Do I have to order them for a fee, or are they free? I ate the popcorn without the Korean horror movies.

    Scary movies

    Thanks for the added information. I added your suggestions to my list. When I was a young kid, once and a while I got the pleasure of watching some Mexican Horror movies on TV. Much more gory, graphic, and spooky than anything America had to offer in the '50s and '60s. I have never, ever...

    Scary movies

    The foreboding, dark, well-acted, recent 2020 iteration of "The Grudge" is pretty eerie. It helps if you can watch the some of the earlier versions, of this Japanese ghost story, first. "The Grudge" 2004 version, with Bill Pullman/Sarah Gellar was also eerie, and will help explain the last...
