    Why do We Smoke Pipes?

    Ever since tobacco fell out of vogue, I find it to be a great people repellent. Whenever I get tired of all these 20 something beotches and hotties throwing themselves at me hoping to stick like velcro to this piece of man magic, I just light up a bowl and enjoy some me alone time. Solace!

    Anyone Suffer from Globus Sensation?

    I recommend taking a couple of Viagra. Once you are walking around like you stuck a baseball bat in your pants, you won't be thinking about your throat.

    Happy (Brown) Boogie by Gawith, Hoggarth & Company

    I chop off chunks and toss them in a coffee grinder for a few seconds. If it's not dry enough, I nuke it for 10 seconds. Wonderful stuff.

    Aw, gee, George!

    Norm was simply a marvel. The comedians comedian with a lightening fast mind and the ability to leave other in awe while he played the fool. I'd call him one of the GOATs of comedy. Sigh. A great loss to the world of comedy.

    Proper Pipe Club etiquette.

    I have a Baldor buffer which works just fine but if I was buying again, I'd pick up a variable speed buffer.
