Here I thought all the time and resisting looking at pipes, I was slowly curtailing my PAD. Brethern, I have backslidden...
Rossi Author - Rubino... good price and my finger was clicking before I could stop it.

Hey, we all give in sometimes and an Author is a fine shape to give in to, congratulations.

I caved for the PC offer on a Tsuge "sampling" pipe, a straight biliard with a tapered stem. Since my Safari browser is blocking me on SP and Iwan Ries, PC has become my go-to online retailer. SPC used to offer rows of Tsuge econo pipes, but then they disappeared. At least this will put a Japanese pipe in my stable. I'm puffing on some Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic from PC, extra mild from my point of view, but a nice even burn with a mellow flavor. SWR regular is just too mild for me; I really can't taste it. But SWR Aro with Virginia and a liqueur flavoring is good, from the extra mild side.

I think there's an old Jesuit saying that goes something like, "There is more sanctity in asking forgiveness than in asking permission."

In just a little over a month, I've bought seven 904s, and two 9004s. I'd say you're doing fine. At under $100, those Rossi's are a great value.

I know, but my shopping list is already at capacity. I'm going to get myself murdered or divorced.

I like my Rossi's, a Vittoria prince and a Palermo zulu. These seem to be comparable to the Sav pipes in the same shapes.

Cortez: might have been in the same chapter as the verse "yea, and I saith unto you that it is better to be judged by twelve than carried by six"
