Geez, You guys are way too serious with this pipe forum! ;)

Boy Howdy K-Piper! Your zip reveals yer location. Myself, I'm in Lancaster County, PA. You must be familiar with Boswell's Tobacco and pipe shop, that's a pipe smokers Shangri-La. Their own blends are excellent and one can try any for free, (At least when I was there last in 2018). Nik

"For me, reading that when I was a teen changed the way I looked at a lot of things regarding Native Americans, other things, institutions, and people." -Swede Man, our nation is chock full of horror stories of how our/others ancestors treated those who weren't white and protestant. Examples...

I didn't realize the algae can be a killer, slick ramps and all. I guess, that's where a lot of Youtube boat fails originate! Nik

Wow, Thnaks folks!

I I can tell you where the system failed - when UPS handed it off to USPS. On non-rush shipments originating form CI, UPS splits the delivery, that is, UPS does the distance hauling, the package arrives at a Postal Service Depot/BMF, which in your case was Vegas. Then it again gets sent to a...

AGAINST THE ODDS: SURVIVAL ON THE RUSSIAN FRONT 1944-1945 John Stieber One man's experiences in the Wehrmacht (German Army) in WW2. Again, a fascinating book. I enjoy reading memoirs by soldiers of the losing side. Don't enjoy reading memoirs by fanatical WaffenSS men. Nik

We're not too far from each other. Any decent smoke shops your way?

Sure, might take a day or two or three... not so good with taking digital photos and posting them in Forum threads.

Uhh,yeah, Trying to use up my Lane very cherry, with the Luden's couph drop flavor in donor pipe reading "Made in London England, made by hand" with the maker's name all XXX out (Wonder why that happens?). Nik

Hey there Lou, I new too,(Already have been sent to the corner), and live in Lancaster CountyPA. Whereabouts you from in PA? Nik

Hey, Now I could use a sampler like that. Anyone want to bless a BoB greenhorn, with a big mouth who puts foot in said mouth regularly? I could defray the cost of postage... Nik

Ok, met the older gent at the convenience store, sat down and talked for awhile. Looked great for a fella in mid-seventies. He likes to go out in the mornings, sometimes in the evenings. Problem is, he doesn't like going out early, early, when the sun is not heating up the water when fish tend...

'Mornin BoB! This morning I'm meeting a fella who put up a photo on the local supermarket bulletin board of a fishing boat with the caption under it reading something like, "Senior fishing buddy wanted". Long story short: this man, who incidentally lives about 1.5 miles from me, would like to...

That hurts, having to part with a 4 legged family member. We had to help our 16 y/o miniature pinscher meet her maker during the year of COVID. Had insulin dependent diabetes and heart trouble. She couldn't hardly stand and had to be fed and hydrated by hand...

Your Buddy, sure looks like he means business. You can usually have it one of two ways when it comes to protection: 1) Early warning, i.e. dogs that bark a whole lot 2) Threat management, dogs that will try to neutralize home invaders. I guess some do both?

Yeah, mine try to speak english, and it sounds so funny - waah,waaah,yyeow,yeow, etc. I watch outtakes of yowling/talking min-pins (Miniature pinschers), on youtube. What a hoot!

I love dogs, therefore the post. I have two dogs: a 10 month old miniature pinscher red and an 8 year old miniature pinscher/chihuahua mix, red. The puppy was the largest of the litter, she's such a galoot and now taller than our 8 year old mix. Training her to do her thing on the deck vs the...

Woah there! That's some kind of pipe collection, and all those meerschaums! Nice display rack. Nik

'Mornin Bros. of the Briar! I wish to apologize to Zeno Marx for my nasty come back I made few days ago to Z.Marx' comment. I also wish to apologize to the BoB members at large for my "trolling" behaviors. I'm not a troll, maybe short fused / short tempered, but definitely not a troll. Doesn't...
