Question for the Management
Harris, as I mentioned, there was a flip remark about liberals that didn't go much farther. The bulk of the discussion stayed with the topic. It was a reasonable, if not reasoned, discussion of what to do when confronted by an activist -- an apolitical one, I'll add for clarification. While...- jkenp

Big Issue With My First Calabash
Norwood will replace the cork for $16.50. http://www.norwoodspiperepair.com/index.php/pipe-repair Not a happy expense but it will make it smokable.- jkenp

Question for the Management
@Rick There was a flip remark about being a liberal but that was pretty well sidetracked. @BRD Nothing like the light of day, is there? Helps keep us all honest. I thought it was an interesting thread. I won't say we are all genius material but it was an honest exchange about an ongoing...- jkenp

It's Not That Simple - (New G.L. Pease Article)
OK, we all love a guru. It even better when they don't put us on some silly diet or make us twist into pretzels. Lots of competition for guru status with pipes but Greg excels. I was glad to note he did well identifying his foibles. That's a good thing, eh Martha. It lets us tone it at times...- jkenp

My Daughter's Phone Conversation with Mike McNeil
Lovely cherry cabinetry. That is what you were showing off isn't it? ;) I pity poor fathers with lovely, lovely daughters. I read recently that young males think about sex every 15 seconds. I mentioned that to one who responded, "Can't be true. What would I do the other 14?"- jkenp

Zippo Fans
Well I bought a Zippo Blu which is their flint/butane. I sent it in once and it came back as useless as before. It is total crap. I'd send it one more time but the design is so bad I know I'd be disappointed. It has no flame adjustment and the flame offered is inconsistant. The flame offered...- jkenp

Favorite Factory Pipes?
I am with Philo. You can pick up something like a GBD estate for a fraction of the prices you are allowing. You can pick up good French pipes for even less with Algerian briar. Charatan pipes can be found under $100. If you shop a bit, you can actually build a rotation for that $200 you're...- jkenp

Compliments To Mr. Ted Haviland
Just seems you've made the natural transition to superior designs. If you look back into the golden days of the movies, the hero always smoke a solid English shape. Thing like Rhodesian were relegated to Commies and their fellow travelers. (Sorry, Al) Occasionally, they cast some kindly but... -
Identification help please :)
I would think more likely middle eastern. Small bowl? If so, even more likely middle or far east. -
First Dunhill
I agree with sjb. It is in great shape. Not sure why anyone would think it needed work but envy abound. Price and looks are great. You should have a mask; you stole it. Steal on! -
Several MacBaren Blends Discontinued
@beezer For that tin investment, you could have gotten a pound bag of one of them and got change.- jkenp

Which Online Retailers Deliver to Canada?
No problem, Stud. I'm glad I could turn it into a feature instead of the short subject you could only get going.- jkenp

Which Online Retailers Deliver to Canada?
@pipestud Not quite sure how I misinformed the gentlemen. I didn't address quantities available. I pointed out that he could view only the new pipes offered -- be they one or a thousand. P.S. I used to stand a stud -- Quarter Horse. Nice work if you can get it; unless it is artificial...- jkenp
