    How to Get a Foul Taste out of Meerschaum?

    Hot water flush. The hotter the water, the more junk it will dissolve and flush away. No need to use alcohol. If cake is too thick, a after it dries, sandpaper the chamber walls.

    Great Rock Song from 1969 Re-Done Acoustically

    Interesting! The original cover was plenty controversial at the time, but it was about showing breasts, not the age of the girl. Now I suppose it'd be classified as child porn. Sad.

    I used to eat up every episode of Monk, and I love revisiting the odd show every now and then. But I couldn't binge on the reruns. Still "only" 5/5.....!

    OK, additional guidelines: One, possibly two photos per post. No near duplicates. If you do not want feedback, say so in the post. Hoping good photos can be made better through critiques.

    Great Rock Song from 1969 Re-Done Acoustically

    I must be thick. Can't figure out a connection. Here are the lyrics: "Come down off your throne and leave your body alone. Somebody must change. You are the reason I've been waiting so long. Somebody holds the key. But I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time And I'm wasted and I can't...

    Good Photos

    This is somewhat of a successor to "Great Photos Thread", a lofty ideal we hit rarely. Edited Sunday, November 10, 2024 • Only images you have shot. • Location and date mandatory. • Camera, settings only if you wish. •. Manipulation ok, but say so.

    Soap Cellaring. A Som Besths Miracle!

    You had to have been there. Why I'd suggest it not be used outside of the Secret Santa thread.

    Soap Cellaring. A Som Besths Miracle!

    I don't use soap at all except when it's the only thing in a washroom, and that's for hands only. For about 30 years now. If needed, a body wash, otherwise, nothing but warm—bordering on hot— water.

    UK PM Removes Raleigh Portrait from 10 Downing Street!

    Agree about the article, but I was hoping for reasoned insight from our fellow members.

    UK PM Removes Raleigh Portrait from 10 Downing Street!

    Well, um, er, erm, there are too many revisionists around! Too many ways for today's media to distort, rewrite, negate what's the truth. And then one has to ask: Who's writing that history??

    UK PM Removes Raleigh Portrait from 10 Downing Street!

    The bulk of the linked article is behind a paywall. Can anyone please post it? Was it an anti-tobacco statement? Anti titles? Or just disliked the painting? Jealousy over fame? And from a quick google: "Sir Walter Raleigh (1552-1618) was an English adventurer, writer and nobleman. After...
