    ***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2022?***

    We’re nearly at that perfect time of the year here in Chicago when the day are warm and the nights are cool. Thought I would enjoy a fire along with some Pease Westminster in honor of the Queen.

    Need Pipe Advice

    I would be cautious about sending any pipes to Chance. He's had 24 Dunhills he was supposed to refurbish and sell for me for nearly 2 and 1/2 years. He did say it would take a while to sell them but 2 and 1/2 years is unacceptable. In March or April, he said he'd send me the proceeds for...

    Name Your Weird Life Skill “Blind Spot”!

    I grew up as a mechanics's kid. In the days before computers dad could tell you what was wrong with a car just by listening to it. He would take me to his shop to learn from time to time and not much of it stuck. Any time I have to work with hand tools, I start swearing geysers. Five...

    What is the Difference between Aged Tobacco and New Tobacco?

    I like my Latakia blends right out of the factory. Aged Latakia loses the deep campfire edge I enjoy. VA’s are better with time.

    A Pipe Does Something for a Man....

    Huh. Every time I have a pipe, my wife wants me to bathe in lime and sulfuric acid before wanting to be with me. I think that ad was fibbing a little.

    Who Doesn't Enjoy Plum Pudding?

    No Balkan's on a hot day? Sweet Moses, what's next grandpa? Not driving when it's a light snow flurry? Going to dinner for an early bird special to "avoid the rush"? Getting up at 4:30am for no good reason? Going to a bingo game as a way to pass the time? Becoming obsessive about the...

    How to Open the Draw

    Opening the bowl is as easy as finding the size you want the draft hole to be and then drilling it. Just make sure you stop early before you go beyond the center of the bowl. Do it in steps, from smaller to larger drill bits. Drilling out the stem is the hard part because you have to open it...
