The top razor is my x-mas present; the brush, too. The other razors I picked up from the old homestead on trip back. There is a good chance that I actually had my first shave with that razor on the left. I never paid it much attention after I found disposables, then electric, then whatever the...

I hope it fills up quickly. And many happy refills! showme

I was pretty sure I understood, too; just wanted to make sure. showme

Hehehehe, no doubt! It's hard enough finding a PERSON like that nowadays, let alone a political candidate. (And I'm not sure the two ever overlap!) I plan on taking a large bowled pipe into the booth with me, some yarrow sticks, Chinese coins, and a tortoise shell. After a good hour and a half...

Is this the political forum? Don't worry, TJ, the republicans will soar soon enough. I think the phoenix reference is accurate, too. Rising from the current ashes to a new found strength. The good of all over the preference of the few is what I hope is clear in the upcoming elections. Wow...

OK, I'm here. Now what? showme

And don't believe anything CP tells ya! :P showme

Welcome aboard, Jeff. A pleasurable vice, indeed! One of my many. :lol: showme

Hey John. I never realized you were just up in Indiana. Will you make the St. Louis show? showme

Hey Munkey. San Jose, huh. I think we've got another member here from that neck of the woods. Any chance you'll be at the St. Louis show this year? Good work on your pipes, btw. showme

Just what I needed: another reason to go into 21 and over establishments! :twisted: showme

When do we challenge other pipe boards to softball games? showme

My wife is not very pleased that I took up smoking at such a late age. She tolerates it pretty well (doesn't nag me about it, but doesn't buy me little presents like pipe cleaners or tobacco either), and in return I choose not to make smoking in the house an issue. My smoking is done on either...

That is a great question in general, Dock, applicable to all of us, but particularly newbies. My first pipe was an ebay special and I thought it was the cat's meow. It smokes good and I like it, but I've only ever seen one other of the same brand (Royal House, Ltd.) and the reason is probably...

I carry my pipe, an elcheapo lighter with a fold-out tamper (tamper head folds too; fold it vertical for scraping), and a couple of pipe cleaners. If I'm at home I'll use the zippo and a handy tamper. (I'm real fond of the one Ol' Dawg sent me.) Jason, I still haven't gone to the attic to put...

I think the trouble with the term "hobby" as it pertains to shaving is that you usually can't do it just whenever you want. I can smoke a pipe at a moments notice. I can shoot my bow weather permitting. But to shave, I have to wait on the hair to grow. Unless you have some sort of shaving...

I know inspiration seldom comes when summoned, but I would be in favor of reading a weekly "From the road" post of this nature from PB. In fact, I really like the title of this topic: Night Riding. PB, from now on, anytime I see the title Night Riding I will know what I'm in for: some good...

Adjustable to boot! Very cool all around. showme

I've had great luck with extra-dry tobacco. Kind of crunchy on the tamp sometimes, but holds a light well, full-flavored, and clean burning. The first experience I had with the extra-dry tobacco was with an old tin of Royal Yacht. This stuff was dustbowl dry. I thought about rehydrating it, but...

Get hunkered down, Bill. Move your pipes to shelter now so you are not scrambling when the winds pick up. Keep your head down, showme
