1792 Flake
I like to smoke it in my Giant Ropp along with a glass of Bean Rye and a PBR back. It's a rush but seems to wear off soon enough. After that first surge of nicotine, the rest of the pipe seems ordinary to me. Asp- jcosmoasp

1792 Flake
I agree that it's strong, but that's exactly what I like about it, along with the aroma. With cooler weather here, it's one of my all-time faves. Two pounds out to get me through the next Samuel Gawith drought, eh? Asp- jcosmoasp

1792 Flake
Just scored two pounds of SG 1792 Flake from my new favorite online tobacconist: http://fujipub.com/82ave/index.html Very nice people, and shorter ship times than the East coast. Asp- jcosmoasp

Fathers Day
No pipes or tobacco, but my wife got me a bottle of 12 year old Highland Park, some Scottish shortbread, assortment of Scottish preserves, and a book on the harbor at Scapa Flow (notice a theme? my ancestors are from the Orkney and Shetland Isles). Scottish salmon grilled on a maple plank, and...- jcosmoasp

Peterson Tobacco
Peterson's P3 is a bit of a chore, what with it being a plug, but well worth the effort. I let it dry for a day after removing the cellophane wrapper, as it seemed too moist at that point. Two pipes later, I really think it's worth the effort.- jcosmoasp

world cup
Spain was tha leader at 7/2 odds as of yesterday, and the US was 100/1. I'd bet the US has a bit better look tomorrow. Argentina was weak in a 1-0 win with Maradona as coach--maybe they'll slip. Why doesn't England have a better homeboy goalie?- jcosmoasp

Sports Comments. Whatever. Let\'s Here it.
US-1 England-1 I'll settle for that as a good start in the World Cup! I'd bet the odds sheet shows a tick down from the 100/1 odds posted yesterday. Wish I'd bet yesterday...- jcosmoasp

Remedies for tongue burn.
A large spoonful of creamy peanut butter works for me. It seems to smooth things out fast. Followed with a glass of really cold milk.- jcosmoasp

Altadis sample received. It was Sutliffe No. 5 Blend
Pstlpkr, I'll have to try some Ezra Brooks. I'm sort of stuck on either Beam Rye or Knob Creek of late. The No. 5 has an aroma that seems bigger than the flavor profile, but I like them both. I usually have an elk steak sandwich (still working on the elk!) and a PBR for lunch--only 16 working...- jcosmoasp
