Glad to hear it Mike!

Jason, thank you for what you've done. Dock, well, you've stepped in it now. Thank you for taking over.

It'll go straight to bills. Though I am happy if I can get some of my own tax money back.

Why do you need to justify it? The pipe will last your lifetime and the lifetime of the next 3 generations! That's quite a bit of value for the price. Just buy the dang thing!

It certainly took me by surprise. I didn't expect to have to shut down the ordering less than 24 hours after I started it.

I still have the sample pipe I made for last year's ASP pipe. No one bought one. The year before, I only sold 2. That's not a good track record from ASP, so I probably won't participate in that again. FWIW, I don't care much for the way they do their POY. I'd much rather put forth a time...

Wow, someone actually bid on it!

Not only that, they seem real proud of that piece. $450 starting bid?

KFC? (where's the icon of a head throwing up?) More likely we'll go to the local pizza joint.

We were without power until about 3:45. It was out before I woke up this morning. Still have clocks to reset. No TV, no heat (need electricity to spin the fan), no computer. The kids were beside themselves :lol:. We ran a few errands. On the other hand, I wasn't able to make anything...

Whatever this virus is, it sucks. Still running a fever. Throat is really bad. No focus, even my eyes hurt. Hopefully today will be the worst of it. Been 4 days now with no pipe.

I've been sick, so unable to participate. I hate getting sick.

1. No, never noticed a difference. 2. I like sandblasts

For pipe stuff, a pound tin of GLP's Barbary Coast. :D

Like Jack, most of my pipes are my own rejects. Though I have some that were gifts and some that I bought. Right now, if I buy a pipe, I'll commission it from a pipe maker with a set of basic instructions: Blasted. Group 5 or 6 in size. Bent, but not more than 1/4. Your take on a dublin...

While certainly not a representative sample, the one Dunhill that I had demonstrated exactly that same problem. It smoked wet, and unpleasant. I ended up trading it off. I have another english made pipe that I acquired recently that also had that as one of its "issues." I ended up making a...

Of course, Yak got what I was aiming for completely wrong. But that's ok. GW, thanks. Glad you liked that one. Some folks get a little verbose and it can be tough to get to the point (or even to find it :shock:)

Thread Drift Warning! What's FOS? I don't know that one. Tough here too. My 6yo is sick and can't go to school. Making for tough days!

Exactly! I am a member of another forum (non pipe related). And folks there have gotten into the habit of adding "THREAD DRIFT WARNING" to the start of replies that drift off the main topic. It makes it much easier to follow if your interest is in the original topic and not the sideline. It...

Geeze folks. I'm not talking about moderating at all. You know those little icons? These: :cat: :@: :| :evil: :( :) Something like that. Ok, I give up.
