    Tobacco in Negative

    I'm a regular contributor on the Opening a Tin thread and after the 4th of July I was playing around with photo editing fireworks into negative. Then I decided I'd try the same on tobacco photos. Below is a negative of my most recent post. If you know how to edit into negative, please post them...

    Adding other Smokable Leaves to Pipe Tobacco?

    That reminds me... smoking chamomile ain't bad either 🤠

    Adding other Smokable Leaves to Pipe Tobacco?

    Mullein is rather nondescript as well, which is why I figured condimental is the only way to go.

    Adding other Smokable Leaves to Pipe Tobacco?

    I used to smoke several herbs in my hipster days. Most of them are great - spearmint and lemon balm are my favorites. Many wouldn't necessarily blend well with tobacco, but certain ones might. C&D's Crooner, for example, uses Deertongue. Were I to suggest any from my own experience which might...

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Black & Bourbon, smoked in what AKB calls a Workhorse, but I think of it more as a WorkShetland.

    What Hearts Are For

    For a few years now Holly has wanted us to have family photos made (us with Luna). We never assigned it priority, and if there's one benefit to how this all happened, it's that we know the end is coming. Today, my best friend Alex - a master photographer - stopped to make that shoot happen. I...

    What Hearts Are For

    I feel fortunate in that I've been able to tell in her eyes that she's been preparing to go for some time. I've made conscious efforts this year to stop and cherish the moments as they happen, and that's been its own blessing. Anything infinite would be torture. Love and life are precious...

    What Hearts Are For

    She told me we were looking at a 50/50. As much as I hated the news, I appreciated her honesty. "We got as much of the tumor as we could," she said. "But we couldn't get all of it. If she can make it another year, she could live another five. But if not... we might not have long. What matters...

    Will the SCOTUS Chevron Decision Affect FDA Tobacco Rulemaking?

    Yup. Most societies, past and present, democratic or otherwise, could attest to that.

    Will the SCOTUS Chevron Decision Affect FDA Tobacco Rulemaking?

    He was 50 shades of correct. And when the populace does get concerned, the powers-that-be swoop in and employ a distraction. Usually in the form of xenophobia or the like.

    Will the SCOTUS Chevron Decision Affect FDA Tobacco Rulemaking?

    The dark irony is that there's never been a democratic system in which voters were both diligent and informed, as the very power structure of democracy makes misinformation more valuable than information. Jefferson himself was a master of this, as he used government funds while secretary of...

    Bust Out Your Zhangs!

    I've got two GH Zhang pipes en route to my home from smokingpipes.com. I was on the fence about buying them until listening to the recent Ask a Pipe Maker episode featuring Jeff Gracik. After his clear endorsement of Ping's product and process, I bought two; one modeled after a J. Alan and the...
