    What Does Everyone Like to do While Smoking?

    I usually catch up on Twitter and/or read a chapter or two of a book.

    Peterson St. Patricks Day 2013 Pipe

    I received my St Patricks Day 2013 pipe today. I just finished up with the first smoke with it. Great smoke and I really like the style. This is my first "sitter" pipe. I was a bit reluctant to get this one, but now that I've held it in my hands and tried it out, I'm glad I chose it.

    Pipe Bags

    @tokerpipes, those pouches from SorringowlandSons look incredible. I just bought one. I've been looking for this type of bag/pouch for a while. This is a great find! Thank you! #impulsebuy

    Peterson's Summer Time 2012 Blend

    It's been a couple of weeks since we last chatted about this. Has anyone tried this blend yet? If so, what are your thoughts? I haven't ordered a tin yet, but I may add it to an order I'm placing this week.

    Peterson's Summer Time 2012 Blend

    Has anyone tried this one yet? It sounds very good. I noticed that P&C got a shipment in yesterday and I've been considering buying a tin. However, I don't see any reviews on TobaccoReviews.com about this one, so I'm a bit hesitant. Any thoughts? Summer Time 2012 Blend Edit: Added link.

    Packing A Pipe

    I tried the 3-step method for my first few weeks of pipe smoking and I just never could get a good pack or a good smoke going. I then stated using the Frank method of packing and I've had really good luck with it. I'm sticking with that method for a while. Good luck!

    Am I Missing Flavor?

    I picked up a couple ounces of 1Q today and have been outside enjoying a smoke of it. Very nice flavors for a newb like me. I'm really liking it so far. Thanks to all for the suggestions. I'm slowly starting to understand tobacco and and learning what I like!

    Whats Going On With TV?

    I second or third the Breaking Bad suggestion. By far it is the best show I have ever watched on television. The writing, acting, directing are all top notch. The first of the final 16 episodes of the series starts on Sunday. 8 episodes this summer and then the final 8 episodes air next summer...

    Am I Missing Flavor?

    More good advice. Thanks guys. Lawrence, yes, I've been doing a great amount of reading on the subject and have also watched You Tube videos as I learned to pack, light, and smoke. One subject I have not concentrated much on is the different tobacco types. I'll start my reading on that...
