Happy Birthday, Ron!

I haven't used 'em for a while, but I tend to take the filter out and let it dry out (or toss it if really nasty). I have a number of Savs resulting in quite a number of filters that come with the pipes. Never had top buy any. I did buy a pack of filters for the one Brigham I own. These two...

The skit about the shark at the door. "Candygram!"

How do Eskimos hold their houses together? With igloo.

Old school: land line only. Answering machine to screen the callers. Not leaving a message? Not picking up. I am sure that irritates the scammers. A cell might come in handy for emergencies, but so far so good. (Thanks to God!)

Are toy guns still made? With rolls of "caps"? And does anyone remember "greenie stick-m caps"? The roll caps were great when baseball bat was stalled down (on end) on a roll. Like a firecracker...

MAYbe a larger cut like cube cut or broken flake just rubbed a bit. Good luck.

Yep. Played original D&D (your logo) and AD&D first and second editions. The third edition messed with things (with some improvements...), but I had finally had my fill. That was about fifteen years ago, so I was hooked for quite a while. Did a number of GenCons as well. Both when it was at...

I haven't had CB white in a long time. Never tried the other pouches. However, Red Sky is delicious (to my taste buds anyway - YMMV).

Don't have Pilot; I have an older Namiki - from the 90s. I believe they are related... It has a nice fine point (Japanese tense to run finer). The click is different; the nib is kept up in pocket, and the nib stays moist and ready to write for quite a while. I enjoy it when it comes up thru...

I have three. One is for virginia/burley; one is for cherry aromatics; the third is for a blend that is discontinued and that I am nearly out of. Not sure what will be the new tenant. Experiment with fine cuts and rough flakes. I understand the issue. I have a pipe with a one inch diameter...

Well, I watched the Brett series, courtesy of the local library (and interlibrary loans). Brett is very good. Alas, I have Rathbone stuck in my mind. His movies are like a comfort food. HOWEVER, the portrayal of Watson is poor. I can dream: Basil Rathbone taking Brett's place with the...

Can you imagine getting to the top of that tower and realizing you forgot (or dropped...) an item you need? Or am I the only one with the occasional dropsies?

Have you tried having a shoe repairman add cleats to the heels? A discussion with the repairman may result in a solution...

I have a few of these along with other Savs - use the filters only when a particular tobacco is on the wet side. Otherwise, I see no need.

I actually liked the Howard version of Holmes except the blown aspects such as Watson showing Holmes how to punch.

I guess I am mundane. Parker, Waterman and Sheaffer mostly. Private Reserve Tanzanite is nice, too. Anything but black ink which looks like a photocopy. Legal Lapis and the other permanent ones put clothing at extreme risk. My recollection is that the ink binds with cellulose (cotton...).

Try http://www.indy-pen-dance.com/ for repairs and perhaps parts. Richard Binder (http://richardspens.com/) no longer repairs pens but the site is a good reference. He recommends Indy pen dance as he trained them. http://www.pendemonium.com/ is also possible, along with...

Really enjoyed Doss (never irritate Aunt Daisy!) and Anne Hillerman. Awaiting her next book...

As long as you are exploring, you may enjoy trying the Macanudo Inspirado lines. White is mild; Red and Black are stronger.
