I did a thread a while ago questioning whether a Dunhill pipe was all it was cracked up to be, if it was worth the price tag. Got a PM from iamn8, saying he would send me some materials to determine if Dunhill was really "worth it."
Yesterday was a crappy day. I had to go to therapy to treat my swelling leg problem, then after I finished, got in my new Dart and started to slowly pull of the lot, I got rear-ended by someone driving between the lanes too fast. Scraped my beautiful metallic blue paint job good. The driver and I exchange numbers and other info, and I head back home.
A few hours later, a black, elongated box appears in the mail, the size and shape typically used for a pipe. I was expecting iamn8's package today, but I expected an envelope of documents, not what I thought could only be in the box. "No one is that generous or crazy," I thought. But iamn8 was--in the black box was a beautiful Dunhill black dress billiiard with a huge chamber, enclosed with some quality tobacco to christen it. I think about the earlier part of the day, and how Emerson tells us things balance out. I smoke the tobacco sample with my estate Dunhill--I'm now an official Dunhill owner. Later on, after I got over the shock, I wrote iamn8 with profuse thanks for this extraordinary gift, and asked why me? He explained to me someone gifted him with a large quantity of tobacco, and he just wanted to "pay it forward" and remembering my thread, decided to send an estate Dunhill to me.
When I look in the papers or hear the news about the rabid people out there, I have to remember iamn8 and what a kind, sharing, and generous brotherhood we have here. Thanks again, brother.
