They do tend to be that way, for sure. Weight is the first thing I check when I see a pipe I like. I've got one Autograph: I liked it enough to overcome its weight, but it's the only one so far, and I don't smoke it often. Too heavy.

I'm not much of a scotch drinker. I typically have a single bottle of "the good stuff" on hand to commemorate special occasions, because when I was a kid I wanted to grow up to be a cliche, apparently. My current bottle is nearly full, so it's gonna be a while before I'm looking to buy more...

I've heard good things about that Kirtland scotch.

Norlan. There it is.

I go back and forth between a glencairn, a regular rocks glass (even though I never add rocks), and that other one designed specifically for whiskey but I can't remember the name of. The one with the double layer glass and the facets around the bottom for setting it on the table at an angle. I...

Yup. I'd say that pretty well confirms they do not make it anymore. :oops:

Genius cartoon.

Welcome back, Puffy! :p

I'm with you, @gravel . I come to pipe forums to get away from all the political stuff, and relax.

I'd say pick an SPC Plum Pudding variant that sounds good to you, and Magnum Opus.

According to what I'm told, it is not.

I'd agree with everything already said. I'm the lead architect in our shop, and we've been making the same transition over the past couple of years. It's a better methodology, but getting there is not easy. Even in a small company, it takes a lot of effort -- and repetition -- to turn...

I have sleep issues, too, @RSteve . (Here I am, posting at 2:30 a.m., my time, and I'm still a couple hours from sleep.) Seems to me the couch may have worked for any of the reasons you mentioned. It could also be just because it felt like a very casual, cozy nap, rather than Going To Bed...

(Hi, Ron!)

Blackhorse is right. It partly depends on how much you're willing to spend on whiskey. It sounds like you like Irish whiskey and bourbons with a little bit of bite. My personal favorite Irish is Redbreast. Second would be Black Bush. And my favorite bourbon is probably Old Forester 1920 or...

As somebody who's had a sleep disorder my whole life, I've found going without alcohol can be a sleep aid. Going with alcohol can be a sleep aid. Aside from apnea, which is pretty much the same thing for everybody, differing only in degree, everybody's sleep problems are unique. There aren't...

You might look at the pub pipes and house pipes various makers produce, Ranger. Peterson makes them, and I know others do, as well; I just can't think of who right at the moment.

Thanks, all. We'll see how it goes. I'm sure I'd enjoy it here. Just a question of if I have time to keep up with 2 pipe forums. You all know how that is.

Hi, all. I'll be right up front and honest: I'm not sure if I'll be active here or not. I registered mainly to help a fella at a different pipe forum who's trying to get in touch with a mod here regarding login issues he's having here. (Currently I'm waiting for him to PM me his details so I...
