   Been checking the site out for a few weeks now and thought I would stop by and say hi. My name is Scotty and I live in SWest PA. Just picked up the pipe a few weeks ago. Long time cig smoker and had enuf of them, but still wanted the enjoyment of smoke. Right now I just have a Dr Grabow with another one on the way. Been looking at some finer pieces and hopefully I can score a few in the next few months. With that being said I probably won't have much to contribute for awhile, but do look forward in getting some good advise. Cheers!

   Just keep your tobacco dry, smoke it slow and don't sweat a couple of relights. It's all good!

   Hey Scotty. You'll find all the info you need to start off and more right here. Not only on the forums but on the site proper as well.

   Where about in PA?

   Do you do any fishing?

   "The fact is, squire, the moment a man takes to a pipe, he becomes a philosopher. It's the poor man's friend; it calms the mind, soothes the temper, and makes a man patient under difficulties. It has made more good men, good husbands, kind masters, indulgent fathers, than any other blessed thing on this universal earth."
   -"Sam Slick, the clockmaker" aka T.C.Haliburton

   Welcome to the community! I hope your pipe gives you plenty of peace and happiness.

   Thanks guys! I'm sure I'll be pestering you all very soon. @flyfishn: Just a few miles south of Pittsburgh and the only fishing I do when I can get to it is tossing a line out into the water, sitting back and falling asleep. Tried fly fishing once. I liked it. I'm more of a shooter type person tho.
