    Am I Turning into a Codger?

    Title edited for caps. Thanks for your service, which in my book earns you all the Codger you like. A little background. I'm 54, a combat veteran, have more gray hair than black (earned and proud of every one of them), paratrooper and current LEO. I've been smoking pipes for almost a month...

    Finally Starting to "Get It"

    I'll do that. I just picked up a large tin of Half and Half. I kinda like it. When my local shop gets some regular SWR in, I will definitely pick it up.

    A Bar Exam for Pipesmokers

    Do you use phrases such as: "I dare say" or words like "indubitability" or "forthwith"?

    A message to Lurkers.

    I've found that by lurking, most of the information I look for is has all ready been covered. Don't want to piss anyone off by asking "that question" for the umpteenth million time. I quite like to read and enjoy a bowl or twelve at the same time. It combines two things I find relaxing. Plus...

    How do You Carry on Conversation while Smoking?

    I generally clench until I want to make a point or emphasize something. Then I point with my pipe..
