    Tobacco raises testosterone levels

    Anyone ever read up on this? I would have guessed it to be exactly opposite. Surprised. Link: Original here

    Women Repelled By Pipe Smokers?

    My experience, no. In fact, women, even young women, rubber neck to locate the aroma's source and then smile when they see ame clenching a pipe. More positive than negative response. Have had a *few* look in disdain, but mostly, no, positive response. If I *want* a positive response, Molto...

    Anxious

    Weird side note. Knowing I might not get to smoke again, that it might be smoking related, I've had the strongest urge to smoke everything I've got nonstop. Humans. We're wired too funny.

    Anxious

    Earliest my test results will be back in is tomorrow (Friday). Get to find out if I have throat cancer or not. My family MD said he's betting it's not, as there is no pain or unexplained weight loss. Still. It's on my mind. Here's to a negative test. (But then... what the hell is it? Makes me...

    Why Numbers On A Watch Face?

    Got to have numbers. Because my retro Mickey doesn't speak. :)

    "Age Limit" for Pipe Smoking?

    I was 10. Back in those days (early 70s), smoking was definitely frowned on. The connection between disease and smoking had long been assumed, but in the late 60s or so, they were discovering and proving the mechanism. Still... it wasn't anything like today. I got them from my 9-year-old friend...

    Help Me Design a Labrador Retriever

    Hmmm... something like that. They have that white undercoat. Could be in the finish. But not oiled. Oiled, that would be my old Chessy (long since gone). Gawd-awful oily coat, that Chesapeake!

    Help Me Design a Labrador Retriever

    And the way it fills your hand... that has to be accounted for. You put your palm over the head or brow of a lab, it fills your palm, they push back against it firmly, or, wanting petted, come force their heads under your hand and toss it up over themselves. Or as you said, the paw. "Shake!"...

    Help Me Design a Labrador Retriever

    Good draft.. yes. And the image suddenly comes to mind of them paddling anxiously out to retrieve a duck, the way their cheeks bellow out, nose up as they plow through the water, eyes excited, searching. Wonder if can get the angle to do that. But wide, yes. They can put anything in that giant...

    Help Me Design a Labrador Retriever

    Bulldogs, fine. I have a couple. But really, wouldn't a Labrador be cool? Help me design a Labrador pipe. I have a block of briar. I'll work with general descriptions, no problem. Be nice if we could form some consensus about things like what would a Labrador pipe's - stem style be? - shank...

    Nothing Gets Past Ms Nosey Nose

    I think I'll remember it in case I ever am the accused: "Um. Your honor? I was clenching an unlit pipe at the time. How could she possibly have seen it was me?"

    Nothing Gets Past Ms Nosey Nose

    okiescout... that's hilarious! -- But yeah, I think we all know people like that.They say you can't change a person's perceptions, you know. Bad news for me, since I'm in public relations, and... that's kind of the point of my job! Captain Prophesy. She didn't buy it. She said she could tell the...

    Nothing Gets Past Ms Nosey Nose

    Feeling: Amused (as always, smiling as us little bewildereds as the planet goes round and round, nothing new under the sun). I think about this story from time to time. Happened earlier this year. Finally decided to jot it down. -- “Joe? Were you just now smoking in the bathroom?” Flabbergasted...
