Nicknamed "Chemical Babysitters" and designated anti depressants, they are causing dozens of murders, thousands of psychoses and are altering the...

    Finally a Va/per

    I obtained a Va/per several years back that tasted of alfalfa grass and bitter like that stuff inside the pecan shell, but is neither nut nor shell. Well, I cramed it into a jar and left it for maybe six or seven years. The time I reopened it prior it smelled of catsup or vinegar, so I resealed...

    Mac Baron's HH Old Dark Fired

    A bold flake of dark fired burleys in a well balanced unity with flue cured Virginias. Thats what the label says, but I'm sure they keep some things a secret. Well, this is my first go with it. Bowl one if you will. I rubbed it this time and will fold stuff on another occasion. I never rubb...

    Trying to Figure Out a Pipes Value.

    I have been trying to figure out how much a certain pipe I have is valued at. It was carved by a custom artisan carver who is now dead, and I can not find any more of his pipes. The carver was Charles DiFranco. This is about the most information I can find on the guy. Other reviews call him...

    Maple Wood

    My son cut a maple tree down some time back. It made me quite angry at the time but now I think Im gonna make the best of it, and make a pipe or two out of the wood. Its not big enough to carve bowl, and stummel out of one piece, so Im thinking something along the line of a Missouri Meerschaum...

    Roadside Palaver

    On my way home from work today, I saw an elderly fella sitting next to a minivan with a table displaying random knives that he was selling. Normally I dont pay much attention to these road side vendors, because they are usually hocking crappy chinese junk, as was this case. But, he was smoking a...

    Steam Punk, Goth, Punk, Cockney?

    We live on a very interesting time where just about any style, fashion, or life style is accepted. So many of these things are so interesting. Complete with philosophy, art, and historical back ground. As a motorcycle guy I love Rat Rods and survival bikes. The life style and philosophy that go...

    Smoking Idiosyncrasy

    I have read that many of you have ritualistic methods for loading, lighting, and even choosing what pipe and Tobacco you are going to smoke. Many have favorite pipes, and even "go too" tobacco. Some have certain paraphernalia that you must have with you. X number of pipes, and prescribed volumn...

    Sasieni Balkan, Original Formulas

    Stopped by the Briar Shop today and picked some up. It smells like standing in a smoke house, amd tastes that way as well. Very oaky and almost salty. This is some good smoke.

    Kickin Chicken

    Starts out good a nice taste, mild and smokey. But becomes bitter and not pleasing kind of ashy tasting like a cigarette. The after taste ruined my water.

    The Flake Mistake

    Ok so I have been rubbing my flake out until it was like shredded tobacco. I dont think it wrong exactly, but after watching some fold and stuff videos, and some rub out videos I could be over doing it. According to them I am losing flavor and coolness. Input desired, what do you think.
