Show Us Your Best Smoker(s)
These are two of my favorites. Top is an old GBD Prodigy Cragstone. I picked it up at an antique store in the 90's. The bottom is a Savinelli Autograph that I won on eBay a few years back. I know, I have some work to do on those stems... -

Tobacco B&M prices
I picked up a tin of Orlik Golden Sliced 50gram for $12.99 at my B&M. Not great considering it's half that online... Puts us consumers in a really bad spot. I want to keep my B&M in business, but it is EXPENSIVE. When I go, I always pick up a tin, but I make my big orders at 4noggins.com- rjscha

I have to admit I'm impressed. Some of your cellars are epic. I'm going to have to get a second job if I ever hope to catch up.- rjscha

My first TAD
Couldn't resist when 4noggins offered the 10% off, so I made my first large order. Until now, I've not put any tobacco back to cellar. This will be my first. Here's what I got: Orlik Golden Sliced 100g C&D Bayou Morning 16oz C&D Pirate Kake 8oz C&D Star of the East 8oz SG FVF...- rjscha

Pipe Show at Smoker's Haven in Columbus, OH
I've heard a lot about Smoker's Haven. Wish I'd have known about the event today. I just drove an hour to the closest Pipe Shop in Indy and it was closed when I got there...sigh. I just signed up for Smoker's Haven newsletter. It's only 2 1/2 hours away. Maybe I can catch one in the future?- rjscha

Dealing With the Naysayers
Great info in the link from the Seattle Pipe Club. Thanks for posting that. I've talked to many people about smoking and agree that you probably will not change their mind. But, hopefully you can show that you've done your homework and know the potential hazards. Taking a calculated risk is one...- rjscha

Oxidation Removel
What happens to the inside of the stem during the Oxiclean bath? I assume it gets pretty nasty in there. Does it affect taste?- rjscha

Thought You Had a Bad Week?
What an ordeal. Thanks for helping me put things in perspective. It a sobering reminder that life is incredibly fragile. I thank God for doctors, but in the end, there's only so much they can do. My prayers are with you.- rjscha

The Lesson of the Homeless
It's a heavy burden having to decide if a particular person is in legitimate need or a scam artist. No one wants to be taken advantage of or scammed. The problem with helping "deserving" people is it still requires us to act as judge--deciding who's worthy instead of who's not. When you can and...- rjscha

The Lesson of the Homeless
@wnghanglow Bummer that happened. I've been burned a time or two myself. I've learned that there's a difference between using wisdom and not judging a person's soul. The bible teaches not to judge, but Jesus also said to be as wise as a serpent and as harmless as a dove. Believe the best about...- rjscha

Most Controversial Tobacco Blends
This is incredibly interesting. Thanks to the OP for all of the work putting this together. I'm wondering if your data takes date of review into consideration. I'm interested if there is ever a trend where a particular blend or category of blends become popular and thus reviews tend to be...- rjscha

4-Noggins.
4noggins is the ONLY online retailer I've purchased from. Always excellent service. I've never received a free sample though. Probably ordered 10-15 times. I wonder if the free samples come more from phoned in orders? I've always used the website. No complaints though. I got what I ordered at a...- rjscha

Having Taste Issues
Sip on the pipe. Don't take long drags. Even if the pipe goes out, your goal is to find the temperature where the flavor starts coming through. If it goes out, let the bowl cool down completely before relighting and trying again. Then you just have to learn how to pack/smoke to keep it at that...- rjscha

I'm Craving a Tangy Citrus Tobacco
Several years ago I smoked a blend by Ashton called "Black Parrot". It was distinctly tangy. I loved it. I know the company has changed hands since then. I'm not sure who's blending for them now, but I just saw that they are making a comeback and "Black Parrot" is back on the menu. I'll be...- rjscha
