Hug Your Little Ones
I'll for sure hug my little ones an extra time. A few years back a very young child friend shared with me that his brother had died by suicide. In our conversation I suggested that this was likely from depression that wasn't successfully treated. I also admitted that I really didn't know. In...- seldom

Pandemic Closes K&W Southern Cafeteria
Saw a thread about TAK/Motzek. Thought I'd dip my toes in again. Now I see this thread. Idiots complaining about face masks and the like. Gosh, this forum is crap. And that dude who argued in favor of molesting underage girls is still here FFS.- seldom

Motzek - Tom's Twists (Sweet Crushed, Hallo, and Dark)
I've been living in Germany for several years. Tabak aus Kiel certainly produces tobacco that I enjoy. Of the the ones you listed I've enjoyed Hallo Twist. One thing I noticed right off is the fermented fruit taste. Herbst 84 is one I like a lot in Autumn and 16/5 Der Neue is similar to HU...- seldom

What Are Some Disqualified Pipe Brands For You?
New Peterson pipes. Quality control being the primary reason. I also think there are much better pipes for the price nowadays. I've Irish ancestry but that doesn't mean I need to buy pipes from Ireland. -
Hangover.
In my mid 40s I can confirm that hangovers are worse now than they used to be. Nowadays I limit my drinking because I know I'll need to pay the price tomorrow. Hangovers happen even when I don't feel tipsy or dunk. A hangover isn't nice for me and it is unfair to my family (young children...- seldom

First Barling Pipe
That is a nice pipe (I'm fond of pot shaped pipes) and extraordinary collection of poetry. I think it is time for me to revisit the Sabbath Poems. Thanks for the reminder! -
Who In History Would You Most Like To Share A Bowl With?
Leonardo (the one from Vinci), Abraham Lincoln, Alexander von Humbolt, Benjamin Franklin, really any of the great polymaths. Oh, and also Ötzi the iceman. Probably none of these smoked a pipe. So Bertrand Russell.- seldom

***What Are You Smoking, April 2020?***
It was a marvelous morning to enjoy HU Director's Cut in a Stanwell 234 oval shank billiard while walking the doggies. No wind at all, utterly clear skies, and the frost quickly disappeared as the sun hit it. Among other observations was the first barn swallow of the year.- seldom

***What Are You Smoking, April 2020?***
Got out today to enjoy a pipe of Herbst 84 in a Savinelli bent bulldog while walking the doggies. It fit the colder weather and my need to get my grumpiness sorted out before getting back to being cheerful with my family in Covid-19 lockdown.- seldom

Mayor Versus Governor.
We started as a country with strong state autonomy but the American Civil War really changed that. I think we are still sorting this out. Here is a quote from historian James M. McPherson: The United States went to war in 1861 to preserve the Union; it emerged from the war in 1865 having...- seldom
