Well I guess I'm new, and love the site now that I've found my way around it! I haven't been smoking that long - only since last summer - but now I know what I do and don't like!
Still going with the pipe collection, and mainly estate pipes (as well as some of my great-grandfathers) - I don't want to go out and buy something like an Autograph and then ruin the thing! But good things come to those who wait right?
In terms of tobacco, I've found myself to be old-school English (which suits Lincolnshire just fine) - flakes, Kendals, balkan blends etc. My fave right now is Coniston cut plug, followed closely by Irish flake, with Artisan's Blend hitting all the right notes in terms of Latakia!
Right now I'm lucky enough to be accompanied by a very comforting glass (or 2) of Port, some G.L. Pease Abingdon, and the latest copy of Shooting Times after a short snifter down the village pub! Wonderful.

I guess I'm still new to this site as well. I work in law enforcement and stumbled across this great site while working a midnight shift one night a few weeks ago. I must say that I am very impressed by the interviews, reviews, information and community of puffers that we have here. I love Italian pipes and have several of them. They seem to smoke the best for me (maybe because I'm biased as I am part Italian haha) and the way that some of italian pipes are designed so they are works of art.
Tobacco? Yes please! I will try anything once. I think that is what I love best about our hobby. There are just so many different blends out there that there is always a tobacco that I will read about and want to fire it up. I love Latakia, but right now I'm on a aromatic kick. My go to smokes right now are sweet vanilla honeydew, evening stroll, frog morton abd a few concoctions that I mixed myself. This hobby never gets old.
On the personal side, my wife and I just had our first child three months ago and I could not be more in love with my new son. I am above cloud nine. I can't wait to teach him how to play hockey, football, baseball, etc. Fatherhood really makes you aware of your priorities in life.
Well that's me in a nutshell. Thanks to Kevin again for a wonderful site.

I found this site a week or so ago and i am really enjoying it. I've been enjoying pipes since 1998. My collection is mainly estate pipes, several E.A. Carey, few Peterson's, some older Kaywoodies. My favorite is which ever one I happen to be smoking at the time. My tobacco tastes are broad from Capt. Black (white), Mac Barn mixture, to Rattray's Red Rapparee, or Frog Morton. I recently have been exploring the world of Va. Flake. I look forward to meeting everyone

Welcome! (and congrats on the son, pipegangster!)
I, too, felt like I found a home when I discovered this site. Thanks, Kevin, for getting the site up (in case I haven't expressed my gratitude previously).
There's nothing quite like tobacco: it's the passion of decent folk, and whoever lives without tobacco doesn't deserve to live.

Hi everyone I've been on this site about a week and really like it. I live in a small town in Tennessee. I love smoking my pipes and any tobacco I can get. I tried growning my own tobacco last year, but didn't go well. I will try again this year.
Posted 2 years ago # -
Hi sapo, I consider my self of having a green thumb, I would really like to hear about your experiences with trying to grow your own tabacky.
I,m new to this site also about a month. I enjoy all the info and interesting conversation.Posted 2 years ago # -
Welcome sapo59. I believe many of us would like to hear more about you're growing experience. Maybe, you should start a growing thread

I tried growning my own tobacco last year, but didn't go well.
Fascinating! I guess there's more to it than putting the seeds in the ground and watching it come up, huh? Tell us about how it went wrong, and what you'll be doing differently this season. I think many of us are keen to follow it.
ps. Oh yes, welcome to the max!

pipegangster,
A father, fellow pipe smoker, and an ELP fan... outstanding!
Oh, a belated congratulations on the baby... too bad they have to grow into people.Posted 2 years ago # -
Thank you for the congratulations on the new baby pstlpkr. Being a police officer for the last nine years, I have seen the worst sides of society. It is a shame that some grow into people that are pure evil and contribute nothing to society.

Punxsutawney Phil sez, "Happy Ground Hog Day !"

Great pic Cortez,
Pux. Phil said we are in for 6 more weeks.
That's good news... He's wrong about 80% of the time.
Have a great day!Posted 2 years ago # -

Because we are...
I'm known as the "Groundhog Whisper" by my daughter...
One spring day I saw a Groundhog along our county road and I stopped, got out of the car and sat close to it and we "spoke" quietly to one another. We admired the nice spring morning as my daughter laughed at me.
