   Very beautiful meerschaum I really like how it looks like a briar. Let us know how it smokes when you receive it.

   Very nice pick up. Hope it smokes as well as it looks.

   Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are small and crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

   Excellent choice! Sinan's Pipes have been in my modest collection for
   years and deliver fine smoking pleasures. Yes, these Pipes have been
   taking the lunch money for a long time. You have the right sing the Blues.
   At least you'll be smoking a great Pipe on the way to the poor house.
   The Bulldog shape is one of my all time favorites. Good for you!

   If at first you don't succeed you are running about average.

   Nice meer for sure.

   IMPs are always a good choice. I've got two and they're both fine smokers.

   I also like that IMP has the more traditional shapes and that bulldog you picked looks great.

   Man, are they hiring where you work?

    Yes, Sinan's site is an excellent place to acquire quality Meerschaums
    in a range to suit most any taste and preference. One thing to keep in
    mind with a new Meerschaum is to clean it before smoking it. There will
    be an abundance of milling dust in both the Block and the bit, so take it
    apart and use Everclear, a shank brush and some Pipe cleaners. This will
    pay big dividend in the Pipe's draft. The dust will eventually turn into
    a real chore to remove, if left unattended to, so it's a good idea to remove
    it before the first smoke.
