🌟 🎄 🎅 The UnOfficial Official 2025 PM Secret Santa Thread 🎅 🎄 🌟
I enjoyed a bowl of F&T Vintage and a bowl of SG BBF with my fellow pipe-smoking Thanksgiving guest after my anti-smoking guests left. Now to send a little something to one of you.- SBC

🌟 🎄 🎅 The UnOfficial Official 2025 PM Secret Santa Thread 🎅 🎄 🌟
I am very excited to have received a package from someone whom I don't recognize -- I suspect that it's from one of you lovely fellows, but I'm not opening it yet so I'm not certain. I've yet to send to my recipient! Should happen this weekend. Getting past Thanksgiving first. To whomever...- SBC

What is your Favorite Christmas Blend?
Cannon Plug may be my favorite scented tobacco. I had never thought of it in a Christmas connection, but now that you mention that, I could see that. I'll have to try it during the holidays!- SBC

What is your Favorite Christmas Blend?
I have a little Christmas Cheer left, and as Red VAs go, it's second only to 40th Anniversary. But what was Christmas-y about it was marketing and timing. It was simply the best Red VA, and McC created an association between that and Christmas that didn't previously or otherwise exist. As for...- SBC

Deer hunting
I took this 8 pointer last Saturday, on my property. I shoot traditional bows from the ground. I don't bait. I've never smoked while hunting, but reading the bow-hunting heros of yesteryear (Fred Bear, Howard Hill, Saxton Pope, Maurice Thompson, etc.) you sometimes see references to...- SBC

I don't know you, but I'll vouch for you (by which I mean, I'll send your contribution if you don't), just for the sake of your name. Orthodoxy was a pivotal book for me (which is beside the fact that I love his fiction, e.g. The Man Who Was Thursday), and we gave one of our sons the middle name...- SBC

Battle of McCVirginias
You know that McClelland closed its doors in the spring of 2018? Check out the Tobacco Sell/Swap/Search forum to see the prices that they are commanding these days. Some of us have a little left. I can't speak for others, but for my part, I have a bowl maybe once or twice a year, to make it...- SBC

🌟 🎄 🎅 The UnOfficial Official 2025 PM Secret Santa Thread 🎅 🎄 🌟
I'm in again, too (pending Mike's receipt and approval of my registration email). If you get me, your job is easy because I'm thankful for anything. But... if you just want any sense of direction: I reach for VAs more than for anything else. Brown flakes with some natural sweetness are my...- SBC

Drones over New Jersey
There were two phenomena going on: the large drones, yes, but also the "orbs" or "plasmoids" that the drones were following. There is plenty of video documentation of this. If the plasmoids were a technology of the same company, then that is not currently obvious. It is also worth noting...- SBC

What's for Breakfast?
My wife made me a bagel sandwich with cream cheese, ham, and egg, and brought it to me at work (...which means my home-office upstairs).- SBC
