    A Great Big Steaming Pile of.......

    This is probably not the right place and if this violates any rules, I apologize, but I have to vent. Tonight I learned that a one of my best friends from high school... someone I've known over 30 years.. has been arrested for, and admitted to, some major criminal activity. I don't want to...

I have been a pipe smoker for only six months and until now, I have stuck with only "drugstore tobaccos" in my pipes. Now that my technique is improving, I think it is time to...

    Learning to Slow Down

    Ok, here's the deal. I started pipe smoking this past April. I did not seek any advice from anybody.. I just dove right in. (insert eyeroll here) Needless to say, I did everything wrong. Probably my biggest fault was puffing way too quickly and forcefully. The best comparison can be...
