Squadron Leader...What's The Big Deal?
I love Squadron Leader, myself. It was the first tin tobacco I ever tried and it was bought solely on the name and tin artwork. It was my first non-aro blend and I just love it. It's mild enough that I'm never not in the mood for it. Since I bought it, I've tried Balkan Sasieni, Orlik...- doctoronln9

Getting the most flavor from a smoke
I second this. When I bought my first pipe, the tobacconist explained the best flavors are from nose and mouth. You can 'taste' what you smell, and smell what you 'taste'. Doing both brings out more flavor. Been doing it since day one. It's pretty overpowering if you do the entire mouthful...- doctoronln9

Met a Pipe Smoker at Disney's Epcot
They do, one in every area. Magic Kingdom gets so crowded, and smoking areas so tiny, you'll notice a smoking area just by smell alone. Epcot's smoking areas tend to be a bit larger, and since Epcot appeals more to adults, there's less screaming if you're caught outside it - or so I hear. I...- doctoronln9

Met a Pipe Smoker at Disney's Epcot
I was at Epcot last Friday with the fiancé, when we sat down and puffed away at our eCigs. I wouldn't dare bring one of my pipes to a theme park! All the sudden, I get this wonderful hint of a smell coming from behind me, instead of the usual stale scents from a 'smoking area'. I turn around...- doctoronln9

Fujima (and other cheap Chinese pipes)
I got one with a 'starter kit' I purchased from an otherwise great online retailer. I thought I was getting a great deal. The pipe caught fire on the first bowl. Not a 'toasty' sensation, but actually lit completely on fire.- doctoronln9

What's a good tea to pair with Frog Morton Cellar?

Newbie Saying "Hi!"
Hey there, also a newbie! Pipe-smoking for less than a year! I go for bents usually, find them better looking, but I got some awesome straights! Anything Missouri Meerschaum puts out I can be happy with, bent or straight! If you want to sample drugstore blends, I can't recommend Prince Albert...- doctoronln9

Adding to Tobacco
Kreteks are great. I was exclusively smoking them after I quit cigs originally. Some kreteks, like Dajirums sold in the US (as 'mini-cigars', thanks to Gvt. banning flavored cigs), actually have no clove in the tobacco. They 'drip' tiny bits of clove oil instead. If you look at the paper...- doctoronln9

Smoking Different Tobaccos in the Same Pipe?
My palette isn't developed. I never notice a difference except what I'm currently smoking with the exception of aros. In my cobs, I don't notice a difference - period. So briars smoke my VaPers and English, cobs smoke everything else. All pipes take my PA with no problem, though. :P- doctoronln9

The Self Gift of Christmas. What did You Get?
I was getting a box of Punch cigars and a few pounds of various blends of tobacco from P&C, but the fiancé demanded we use our Christmas money for a trip to Disneyworld instead. So I got a pouch of Borkum Riff and Captain Black for $1 each (coupons!) and a $5 MM Cob. :crazy:- doctoronln9

Oral cancer scare
It sounds like canker sores to me, but it would be best to go to a doctor and verify. When we had to study mouth cancer back in my pre-med days, tongue cancer had a distinct look to it. My grandfather had tongue cancer as well, so I had first hand experience with seeing it in action. If you...- doctoronln9

Just Took My Cat To The Emergency Room
I'm real sorry. He looks exactly like my cat, who came out of the ER himself last month, so this hits home. Best of luck to him.- doctoronln9
