    Newbie question about pipe filters

    I bought a bag of cotton balls from the dollar store. I pinch off a tiny bit that will loosely fit in the tenon. Before loading the pipe I check the draw and after each smoke discard the pellet. The bag of cotton balls from the dollar store will be enough for over a lifetime.

    Alcohol in the bowl

    For a long while I used dry pipe cleaners after almost every single smoke. Since I started dipping them in vodka, rum, whiskey,etc. a few months ago, after every smoke, the taste has significantly improved, and the cleanliness also turned out to be more thorough.

    Photos of Yourself/Myself

    This picture is really who I am: as long as life's tribulations don't pinch a nerve in me, I'm satisfied with what I have and even find our human reality oddly funny.

    What are You Reading?

    @stiivn: Yes, she does, even if I warm up to these books very slowly. Her warm and nourishing approach is very intriguing, viewed in retrospect especially and irresistibly from her act of suicide.

    One Bulk to Stock

    +1 Andrew: Rincon de la pipa No. 1. I always try new bulk blends, but this one is really No. 1 for me.

    What are You Reading?

    Having finished The Waves and Orlando by Virginia Woods, I just started her The Voyage Out. Sometimes they are tough to read but once successfully entered into the mood, one gets a good taste of the contemplative experience.

    Charring Light, Only Sometimes

    I have been perfectly happy without the charring light so far, but after reading this thread, I feel inspired to take one step back to basics and enjoy a more even smoke.

    Pet peeves

    After finding, identifying and condemning the most disgusting and loathsome faults in other personages, I hate to rediscover them, sometimes only in the form of inclinations, sometimes as long forgotten deeds, - within myself. This is my greatest pet peeve so far.

    Day to day tastes

    To OT: Speaking from a somewhat similar experience, I suppose that your taste buds are simply fatigued. After a week or more of abstinence the flavours should come back full swing.

    Random Thoughts

    I had the same sentiments as I was reading the last pages of The Waves by Virginia Woolf last night - on my cheap but handy Sony reader. Yes and I`m torn between the good old paper and its scent and the e-reader. Here is a nice part from the aforementioned book on pipe smoking.
