    Bell\'s Three Nuns pipe tobacco blend

    heh, i sure have smoked alot of three nuns in my life. its a fabulous tobacco. i hope you enjoy it. my method is fairly simple, i get a few bits and a couple coins and kinda squish together and load into my pipe. theres more to it then that, but im sure you will find your technique...

    How to Make Pipe Smoking Go Away Foreever

    and i agree with the other sites over moderating. half of my posts dont fit the ultra conservative twits who mod it and never get on there - freedom of speech is nonexistant on that other site. not to mention posts not appearing for hours, and the mods being arrogant, snobby, rude and boring...

    Zippo or IMCO lighter? which one is better?

    i just emailed them and said something like. hi im from nz, and i hear you might be able to send me a free sample! they replied saying "you heard right!" and the rest is history. granted you still use a lighter or matches to light the beeline, but imo, its about taste and, pardon the oxymoron...

    I like small ones (pipes, that is)

    i pretty much only buy small pipes... always have... smoking enourmous pipes just isnt my thing - id rather smoke a couple smaller bowls than one huge one! in saying that, i do have a couple "large" group 5s that work very well at smoking mixtures, but i dont smoke them all that often. usually...

    Rusticated or Sandblasted

    alls i know is that rusticated pipes *and im considering sandblasts as a type of rustication in this statement* afford some serious value in terms of smoking quality. I actually have only one rusticated pipe in my collection, and it was the last pipe i brought. Its a really kickass straight...
