Hey Blackhorse, the thought has crossed my mind. But, I worry the sender may get in trouble for mailing tobacco across borders. I also think it will get nabbed. I think what I gotta do is accept my situation. I guess I will begin to just buy at my local and accept the cost. I enjoy pipesmoking...

I’m a Canadian pipe smoker so as many are aware that means steep taxes. Prohibitively steep. Like we’re talking a pouch of Amphora goes for $65CAN which is about $50US. Insane. It also means limited selection. At my local B&M, which is a nice classic tobacconist selling mainly cigars, they...

Thanks fellas. Quite a few things need to fall into place over the next couple of weeks. Fingers crossed. Will post pics. My sisters told me I should contact CBC about making a documentary ha ha. " International school gets thwarted by government relocates to hippy town in BC and students...

A bizarre sequence of events is sending me to Vancouver Island tomorrow. I am to become the principal of a new school there. Well...its actually an extension of the school I am currently the principal of here in Korea. The new president here (the old one is in jail for corruption) does not...

96% humidity today though I would say more like 110%. Getting slammed by a typhoon here named Noru. Lighting and thunder...drenching downpours. Feeling rather sticky at the moment.

Awesome! Didn't John Lennon have a song called Instant Karma. "Instant Karmas gonna get you Its gonna knock you off your feet..." Well there you go!

Thanks fellas. Honestly...I would buy Granger just for the can itself. Love the dog on it

I dont know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve. Tolkien

Thanks Richard. Prince Albert huh? As a Canadian I never grew up around these smells so all those OTCs are unknown to me. I remember yellow Sail and Amphora being around and not much else up in the Great White North. I shall purchase a pouch of PA the next time I order stuff. Storm Front too...

Yes. Wodehouse is my favourite writer. Psmith is one of my favorite of his characters! Psmith in the City. Great book about the drudgery of work and the lure of sport and open air. Who can't relate?

Another terrific blend by 4Ns is Prairie Wind. A great VaPer.

Thanks for responding guys. Much appreciated. Mr. Burley...among the OTC stalwarts (PA, SWA etc...) do you have a favorite?

Lately I've been enjoying Semois a lot which is the only straight burley I've ever tasted. For a while I've been thinking about getting a tub of an American burley like PA, Granger, SWA, or Lane RR. I'm wondering is there any similiarity between any of those and Semois? Which one do any of...

I concur. The world would be a much better place if way more people smoked pipes.

He he. I was only being facetious Banjo. Having been to China there is no shortage of bamboo there. That is an amazing collection you have and I always enjoy seeing your pictures. Out of curiosity...what was your very first bamboo pipe? As in which pipe started it all for you?

Homunculi...had to look that one up. Thanks for adding to my vocab. But you're too kind our current crop of leaders...Homunculi?...more like E.Coli

Im no ecologist but is it possible that Panda bears became endangered because all the bamboo they need to eat was used in your pipe collection Mr. Banjo?

Nice! Funny to think there are tons of people who twist themselves into yogic knots, take drugs, pay for years of therapy etc...to find the peaceful state of mind you described. Its very simple...slow down, smoke a pipe. Peace on Earth.
