    Ghosts

    I smoke a lot of flakes, but Erinmore flake has stayed in that pipe like no other, not that I've tried to get rid of it, I just leave that pipe to that tobacco. My friend however ghosted a pipe with some tobacco, and just smoked his normal tobacco a lot and that seemed to get rid of it.

    I'm a bit of a metalhead. So, I'm listening to the band Týr, from the Faroe Islands. They play a combo of heavy metal mixed with Scandinavian folk music. Current song ,"By the Light of the Northern Star"

    Boots! Let's discuss em...

    I wear Chippewa engineer boots nearly everyday. I think Chippewa is a great company, and most of their boots are made in the USA still.

    "So what got you into smoking a pipe?" .....

    My friend got me into cigars the summer of '08. That winter it was cold and cigars are to awkward to smoke with gloves. So, I hoofed it to the tobacco shop there (nasty place, mad atmosphere and the proprietor was always in a terrible mood and unhelpful) And I bought my first pipe there and...

    Pipe reflections

    I posted this on my facebook a few weeks back after a night walk with a pipe. I thought maybe you fellows would like to read it. Has anything in this world still remained simple, unexploited by culture. Even eating and sleeping, the most basic of human needs have become huge, complex...

    Doing the math

    Wow, I've only been smoking a year, I hate to think what I've spent in that time, and just on what I've smoked (since I actually never heard of cellaring until now.) I reckon it's about $300.... this does not bode well for the future.

    Nice night for a walk

    I didn't realize there was a difference in walking and strolling, course now that I think of it, walking seems to be to go somewhere in particular, and strolling is just to be out....

    Nub cigars

    I've tried them, they're quite good. They do have a surprisingly long smoke, I couldn't tell you exact minutes, but damn close to a Corona.

    What are you smoking?

    Just finished smoking a 1936 Sasieni Barclay with Lord Nelson inside it. Not sure how know Lord Nelson is, I buy it bulk from a B&M and not sure if it's widespread...

    Finite Amount of Bowls?

    Briar, being a natural product, and absorbing things when smoking, it's possible for it wear out, but I think if the pipes taken care of, and even some of the refurbishing steps, mainly the ones focused on cleaning the bowl inside itself, could make a pipe last for years, longer than it's smoker...

    Hello all!

    I actually do have to, which can be quiet cold and a large ordeal of getting ready.

    Nice night for a walk

    If there's some heavy boots, a scarf, a hat and a wool overcoat and gloves on hand. Just spent an hour walking with my pipe. Not a bad way to spend a sunday night. Anyone else go on walks while smoking?

    Darn Cold Here

    Maybe there's some correlation between pipe smoking and living in cold weather...

    Darn Cold Here

    Yeah, I'm not far from Camillus, I'm just outside Buffalo. There wasn't much snow yesterday, just wet packed down stuff from a few days before, but a lot has come down since then.
