It's 10:30 CST with 4 inches of snow and clear sunshine outside so time for some more ketchup/sweet, my third bowl of FM 2000 today in a Freehand Relief tanshell finished Charatan Dublin :twisted: :twisted:

Half way through this bowl of Edgeworth Slices in an old medium bend grain etched Preben Holm Ben Wade Prominence B freehand. A cup of coffee brewed to the proper temperature is my drink on this cold and rainy day.

What does Ketchup mean in the pipe smoking context? I've seen it somewhere else too.

(I did check the acronym/terminology thread.)

It's pretty much a reference to McClelland. Many have noted a tin aroma that reminds them of ketchup or perhaps more specifically to the vinegar used in ketchup production. Kind of an on-going inside joke.

Some posters here use it as kind of a tongue-in-cheek reference, while not actually experiencing it just to perpetuate the myth.


Cheers,
